How to Submit a Support Request

The Helpdesk portal is a centralized location for you to open, track, and respond to support requests or “tickets”. Each ticket is assigned its own unique case number that allows you to track the ticket’s progress and view closed issues.

A member of Stayntouch Support will create and share your login information with you so you can begin accessing our Helpdesk portal. In most cases, submitting a support ticket in Helpdesk will be the main channel used by you and your team to ask questions, problems, or issues.
