With much work to do and many tickets to answer, it can be easy to overlook some of them.
However, keeping an overview of everything that comes in is easier than you think.
When you’re all caught up in work and focused on solving the problem at hand, you might not always take notice of a new urgent ticket coming in.
It can be lost under another bunch of incoming messages and you would only find out about it, when it’s far too late and doesn’t serve the sender anymore.
Nevertheless, if you actually manage to answer that urgent request in time, you will likely prove your value to another satisfied customer.
Service Case Notifications in TeamViewer 12 make sure of that by integrating pop-up and email notifications into your workflow.
How Service Case Notifications Help You to Stay on Top of Your Work
With TeamViewer 12 Service Case Notifications, you’ll never have to worry about overlooking an incoming ticket again.
You don’t even have to have TeamViewer visible on your desktop. That means you can get on with other tasks and don’t have to worry about missing any incoming cases.
Note that while you can receive pop-up notifications independent of your license type, email notifications can only be used with a business or higher license type.
Pop-up Notifications
When they’re enabled, TeamViewer will display pop-up messages in the lower right corner of your screen, whenever there are case changes to inform you about.
Pop-up Notifications give information about
- The subject
- The customer name
- And a preview on the corresponding message
They are displayed, when
- A service case is assigned to you automatically, …
- …manually by somebody else, …
- … or is created but not assigned to anyone so far.
On the other hand, you’ll not receive a pop-up notification, when
- You create the service case yourself, …
- … assign it to yourself, …
- … or you assign it to somebody else.
