- Cleveland-Lorain-Elyria, OH (1888PressRelease) July 29, 2017 - BlackBeltHelp, the leading Help Desk support and Artificial Intelligence company, today announced that they are launching Artificial Intelligence for Higher Education to Automate Over 50% of IT Help Desk Support.
Problem Statement
Technology and student services play a pivotal role in higher education. There’s an evident rise in the level of help desk support demanded by students, faculty & staff, today. They seek convenience, increased channels of support and more availability. As the once widely accepted 9-5 service model is no longer meeting demand, Institution IT Departments are challenged to meet such increasing demand due to reduced resources.
BlackBeltHelp has been successfully providing IT Help Desk Services to 200+ institutions in the higher education space, globally, for more than 6 years. “50% of the help desk queries that we receive from these institutions are related to Password Reset. Most of the agent’s time and energy is consumed by this repetitive task of resetting the passwords”, says RonBhalla, CEO of BlackBeltHelp.
According to research by Gartner, 20-50% of a service desk’s call volume is just password reset. Also, a Whitepaper: Help Desk Security and Privacy Survey by SANS highlights that password reset is the most common and repetitive task that help desk agents deal with.
PricewaterhouseCoopers and Meta Group conducted a research to reach out on a conclusion that help desk tickets for password resets cost on average $60.93 per users annually, not just this but 45% of total help desk calls are for password resets. An institution with 5,000 FTE’s can save approximately $300,000 annually by implementing AI for Password Reset.
Here are few other top challenges that are being tackled by IT professional in higher education:
• Unstructured phone calls and walkup requests
• Long resolution times and lost issues
• Repetitive manual tasks leading to clerical mistakes
• Agent burnout
When the help desk doesn't respond fast enough, the mean time to resolution is longer, and frustration in your students, faculty, and staff increases. These results include declining customer satisfaction and lost enrollments. These are the facts. Whatever steps necessary must be taken to speed up responsiveness and resolutions to ensure student success.
