Hello We also use Jira and find it pretty robust in features and functionality for multiple projects. It has pretty decent non-profit pricing too depending on the number of staff you have. We switched from Helpspot which was flexible but had less features.

Very customizable in terms of forms and ticket fields for various different types of tickets and tasks. It is super easy to tag others for comments or updates. That said, as others have mentioned, it does cost $$.

Greetings Code4Lib folks, I'm reaching out to inquire if anyone has recommendations or opinions (positive or negative) regarding IT Ticketing solutions suitable for a Public Library system. We're exploring options and are particularly interested in systems that: - Are easy to maintain (with a preference for FOSS, but doesn't have to be). - Can support various submission forms tailored to different departments (e.g., Marketing Dept, IT Dept, ILS Dept, etc.). - If not FOSS, then they should accept POs and accommodate non-profit or tax-exempt customers, like public library systems. We are currently using osTicket. However, we've encountered challenges as it has been heavily customized by a team who no longer works at the library. Although we're considering migrating to another solution, I'm curious to know if anyone has experience with https://supportsystem.com/, which seems to be a cloud-based version of osTicket. Any insights, recommendations, or opinions you can share would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance! -- Ray Voelker
