Professional services support team: 2 agents for 1,600 tickets/month
Professional services queues skew toward scheduling and quoting, where a single missed handoff costs far more than a slow reply.
Verdict: Worth buying
- 0.9-month payback and 7.5x first-year return on a 326/month platform fee.
- A 7.5x return means a large share of your support cost was avoidable labour, not overhead. Re-check that handle time and loaded rate are right - if either is overstated the return collapses.

This is one example. Get yours calculated.
These figures assume 1,600 tickets/mo. Leave your email and a person replies within one business day with the same evaluation for your actual ticket count and AHT — free, and fine to ignore if it is not useful.

These figures come from one assumed volume. Change the ticket count, AHT or cost per hour and the answer moves.
