Service management platform for support teams
About OTRS
OTRS is a service management platform that support and service teams use to handle tickets, processes, and customer communication. You can deploy it with common tooling such as Docker or a standard package install and integrate it with the systems you already run. In practice it rewards a little setup effort with long-term independence, transparent behavior, and a community that documents real-world deployments.
