A ticketing system is the most common communication channel that web hosting companies offer to their clients. It is typically part of the billing account and is the most effective way to resolve a problem that requires a certain period of time to examine or that has to be forwarded to a sysadmin. Thus, all comments provided by either party will be kept in the very same location in the event that someone else wants to work on the given issue and the information in the ticket will be available to all parties. The downside of using a ticketing system with most hosting platforms is that it is not included in the web hosting Control Panel, which means that you will have to log in and out of no less than 2 accounts in order to do a particular task or to get in touch with the company’s help desk staff. If you would like to administer a handful of domain names and each one of them is hosted in its own account, you’ll need to use an even larger number of accounts at the same time. Furthermore, it may take a substantial span of time for the provider to process your ticket requests.
