I've also deployed the Web+Center help desk from Internet Software Sciences.
I had some difficulties when trying to run the install with the database on
a remote SQL server, but this environment was not a necessity so I just went
with a complete local install. After the initial installation, the
configuration was very straight forward and the layout is user friendly. I'd
also recommend the software to anyone looking for a great help desk tool.

Just thought I would pass along as a extremely satisfied customer
(especially after my horrible experiences with Blue Ocean), that Internet
Software Sciences http://www.inet-sciences.com has released a new version of
their very affordable and useable web-based help desk software called
Web+Center Help Desk 3.5. I had been beta testing it an the owner/author,
Scott Vanderlip, has been one of the nicest and most receptive people I've
worked with. The five-user version is only $1500 and the three tech version
is still free! My reputation has gone up a couple of points since using this
product because of the automatic email notifications.
Additional information about the new features and upgrade information can be
found in latest Internet Software Sciences
Newsletter on the web at:

As a side note, any of you other sysadmin's using this product in a hospital
environment? I'd love to share notes. We modified the product since many of
our users (nurses mostly) don't use a PC. Also, Scott wrote a terrific app
for us based on Web+Center that will save our Medical Staff department
thousands of dollars in labor that you might be interested in. It is a
simple online database of the physicians with privileges at our hospital
that insurance companies and HMO's can access. The Medical Staff department
was having to answer about 300 requests a month via fax or mail.
I post this without compensation. I just love the product and am impressed
with Scott's support.
