OTRS makes it easy for your company to overlay
our structured communication software on top of
existing systems. There’s no need for expensive,
custom development.
OTRS is one of the most widely used solution desk systems, and it can be seamlessly integrated with existing applications such as SAP, Salesforce or HP Service Center. The generic interface and the XSLT mapping module of OTRS, CONTROL and STORM allow both the integration of existing systems and also individual customization of the respective application interfaces. This significantly reduces the risks, effort and costs involved in creating and maintaining conventional interfaces. Using the XSLT mapping module in OTRS, it is possible to adapt incoming and outgoing data structures to and from third-party systems to OTRS data structures – without complex programming or Perl know-how.
We especially liked the open-structure approach, which allows OTRS to be flexibly connected with our IT systems. Thus, experts from the specialist departments were able to work out a solid and suitable solution for integration in close cooperation with the IT department.Anne Grünkorn, Head of Mobility at LogPay Financial Services GmbH
Your OTRS is unique. It is perfectly tailored
and configured to your requirements. But that’s not the only
flexibility that our software solution offers. OTRS lets
you choose from many stable and individually configurable functions,
so you can constantly renew, adapt or configure the platform
itself without adding development time.
By creating our own configurations, we have been able to resolve all the inquiries from various departments in an individualized and absolutely satisfactory way.Georg Rölli, Head of IT Operations at Livit AG
