[rt-users] RT applications

2007-05-14 Thread Teresa Carcelén Fernández

Hi all!

Can anyone tell me some examples where RT can be applied for ?

1. project management

2. help desk,

3. NOC ticketing. Basically, this is what it is made for.

4. CRM and software development

Thanks in advance

Best Regards
Teresa

 1. project management 

We use RT extensively for project management. Parent/child and
dependency functionality makes this very nice. Also, when using
extensions like TimeLine, you can make snazzy Ganttesque charts.

  2. help desk, 

Our Helpdesk has migrated to use RT exclusively for trouble tickets, and
escalation of issues outside of the Helpdesk.

  3. NOC ticketing. Basically, this is what it is made for. 

I don't think RT was made for this, but in concert with AssetTracker
works very good for NOC incident management. 

  4. CRM and 

CRM = Customer Relationship Management? If so, when combined with
something like RT-Billing (*cough* shameless plug to be released soon
/plug) makes automation of quotes/estimates and billing trivial. RT's
intrinsic ability to track items based on requestor makes it very easy
to figure out who your noisy customers are as well :)

 software development

We have custom fields in development queues for things like Revision
Version and Code Status, and tie this in with SVN (Subversion) to
allow for very fluid tracking of development items. You'd need to put in
some custom legwork to make this really snap, but it works well once
it's fleshed out.

http://search.cpan.org/dist/RT-Integration-SVN/ may be some of that  
custom legwork ;)

I REALLY wish these things were listed in the RT wiki.

Wow. That looks great.

Thanks a lot, specially to Mark and Jesse.

Yes, It´d be a good idea to include this advantages in the RT wiki


Wikis are designed to allow the community to add content. I'd be  
indebted if you could add what you've learned there.




I´m amazing how cool is RT.  And now AT, wow.
Please, I have the last question, RT is not made for Bug Tracking  
System, isn´t it?


We use RT for a bug tracking system here at best practical, as well  
as for cpan (rt.cpan.org) and perl (rt.perl.org). We're pretty happy  
with it.
