Zammad Administrator

Zammad is an open source helpdesk/support system and issue tracking system, which serves the coordination and answering of inquiries of any kind.

The application supports clients, agents and management equally intelligently in the structured capture, processing, documentation and evaluation of all internal and external matters.

This training is aimed at administrators who want to run Zammad and project managers who want to introduce Zammad.

We turn you into a professional regarding installation, configuration, use of power features (text building blocks, macros, etc.), integration of channels such as Twitter, Facebook, email, chat and email forms. We also familiarize you with the possibilities of user/rights management, backup and restore, scaling and high availability.
