Let’s find out more about LIKE.TG’s most recent features!

Activities module for task management

The activities module allows you to create tasks, calls, and meetings. These activities can be linked to a ticket or contact, or they can stand alone. Activities can also be assigned to a specific agent. This helps with ticket organization. For instance, when multiple teams are involved for a particular ticket resolution, then multiple subtasks can be added to a ticket and assigned to different agents.

Ticket approval feature

The ticket approval feature allows your agents to create approval requests in the context of tickets.
For example:

• An approval request to a manager for giving a discount to a customer.
• An approval request to a manager for purchasing new hardware.

Global search page for agents

A global search page in LIKE.TG allows agents to search tickets, contacts, contact groups, and the knowledge base.

Perform email actions without logging into portal

Using the email actions feature, you can modify certain ticket properties, such as status, assignee, and requester, without logging into the portal. This way, you can quickly and easily manage your support requests through email, even when you’re away from your computer.

New integration support in LIKE.TG—OneDrive

In LIKE.TG, users can browse for and attach files from OneDrive. This option is available in the ticket create and reply sections only when the OneDrive integration is enabled from the marketplace page.

Look for a ticket within a specific view in ticket module

In the ticketing system, when you look for a particular ticket, you can search by specific ticket title or ticket ID within a specific view. This feature helps narrow down the search time and effort.

Prevent email notifications for ticket creation and response

In some cases, an agent may not need to send an email alert for a ticket or posted message. For this scenario, we’ve provided an option to skip the email notification. When this option is selected, no email notifications will be sent to agents or customers. Furthermore, no automation will be triggered for that specific event. This option is available at the time of creating a ticket and posting a message.

Changing the default columns for a ticket grid view

When creating or editing a ticket’s view, you can save the default columns in the grid view. Also, you can customize the default columns for each ticket view.

When you specify a default column at the time of choosing a specific view, only that column is shown in the grid view by default.

Conditional email templates support

With this new feature, you can create more personalized and relevant email notifications by inserting conditional statements in your email templates. In LIKE.TG, we are using the Liquid template language. It allows you to build conditions that check for specific user or ticket properties such as categories or custom field values and sends different content accordingly. For more information, refer to our knowledge base article.

Separate page for tags in customer portal knowledge base

In the customer portal, a new page has been added to filter articles by tag. This helps us find relevant articles easily. When you click a specific tag, all the articles with that tag will be listed in the article details page with pagination.

Preventing conflicts while editing articles in a knowledge base

Now you can avoid conflicts when more than one agent is working on the same article. A warning message will be sent when a user works on and saves the older version of the article. The user can get the latest version of the document by reloading the page and then making their changes.

File attachment and weblinks support in contact and contact group modules

In contact management, you can attach files to the contact and contact group profile pages. You can also include external website links in the profile pages, such as a contact’s LinkedIn profile link.

Now, you can add a maximum of 25,000 contacts to a single contact group under contact management.

Excel export improvements for worklog reports

In this LIKE.TG release, some enhancements have been made to the worklog report export option:

• The exported file includes a summary of the work that has been logged.
• There is an option to export the results of the work log report grouped by fields, such as ticket ID, requester, contact group, and created on.

Get the underlying data for agent performance dashboard metrics

This option helps you view the underlying data for metrics based on SLA in the Agent Performance Dashboard. By clicking on the metric, you can view its details.

Secure contact list in admin module

In some cases, you may be required to add an external user as an agent. In such cases, you may want to restrict external agents from viewing the contact or contact group list, even if it is in a dropdown.

To achieve this, you can disable the view contacts permissions. This way, the agent will be unable to view the contact list, even in the dropdown fields. This keeps the data more secure.

File drive integration for customer portal and knowledge base

In the customer portal and knowledge base articles of LIKE.TG, support for OneDrive, Google Drive, and Dropbox has been provided. Customers can attach files from these drives when creating and replying to tickets in their customer portal. Agents, too, can add attachments to the articles from the drives.
