Hello,I wanted to introduce osTicket into a company i'm working for.I really like osTicket as far as i have seen it.In the following weeks we are going to test it.When i look at osTicket i also see a few chances to really improve it.As far as i have seen i am definitely not the only one who's running into these problems.This are the things im running into:1. The form customisation is great, but it would be so nice to remove

the standard Ticket Details form. (example: i want to create a special

form for the creation of a new Active Directory user, then i can make my

own form and users don't have to fill in other things. The name of the

form is the name of my ticket and the details are given in my custom

fields.)2. Support agents can set a default view. (eg when im from

the department system support i get to see the tickets assigned to this

department, my colleague who is a programmer does only want to see the

requests of application management and functional application

management). This can be done by the person itself.3. SLA's are based on 24x7. Thats easy for the programming, but there are almost no companies using 24x7 support. Definitely not the ones that use a free ticketing system like osTicket.4. SLA's change automaticly when the Priority is being changed. A high

priority call needs to be solved way more early then a low prio call.

(eg. an emergency call needs to be solve within 3 hours, a low prio call

needs to be solved within a week)I would like to hear from the developers.

Incorrect assumption.  We do and have been for years...

Though I would prefer there to be a way to set the hours of operation and some sort of extended escalation system for after hours support.  Maybe some sort of special notification and messaging system for those tickets submitted after hours, noting after hours support would be the way to go.

I only said the most of them. I am aware that some compagnies do have 24x7 support.But it just would be nice to have the option to choose between 24x7 and working hours.Anyone of the developers have any comment btw?
