What method of support do your customers use most to contact your support department?

I know for me its normally email but have tried to put some more focus on the helpdesk now so people do direct to that for support, also good with a knowledge base there.

Well for now we have telephone and email support but we will be installing a helpdesk and live chat soon hopefully by the end of January.

Almost none of our customers use our Instant Messaging (wierd but true)...

Everyone either emails the person they are used to dealing with, or our helpdesk (which is where we try to direct everyone)...

Afew have used the phone from day 1 and I dont think they will ever change...

*sigh*

For us. It defently has to be AIM/MSN/ICQ/YAHOO messengers.. Clients just like the real time interaction i think.

we have helpdesks, forums, e-mails, messangers, and phone #'s but they still perfer Instant Messangers.

helpdesk helpdesk helpdesk!

Everything is stored in one location for easy referral. Plus, running Linux there are only 2 chat programs that works (yahoo and AIM) but I am not on the chat much anymore. The helpdesk works for my customers. Took them some time to get use to it.

Most for me use e-mail DIRECTLY To me, not to support, that's what i don't like since my support techs are board as hell.. LOL

I prefer email support, that way it is documented and saved incase you need it for anything, rather than messengers or irc support..

There are 3rd Party Programs that allows you to run MSN On linux i know that for sure, but im sure there would be an ICQ Client available as well.
