Why Organizations Lose Money Without Ticketing
Organizations without ticketing systems hemorrhage money through inefficient processes, duplicate work, missed deadlines, and lost institutional knowledge. The cost of not having a ticketing system far exceeds the cost of implementing one.
Hidden Costs of No Ticketing
- Agent time waste: 2-3 hours daily spent just organizing requests
- Duplicate work: Same issues solved multiple times by different agents
- SLA failures: Missed commitments and contract penalties
- Knowledge loss: When agents leave, all their solutions disappear
- Hiring challenges: Difficult to onboard new team members without documented processes
- Poor decisions: No data on support patterns to guide investments
Financial Impact
For a 10-person support team wasting 2 hours daily on organization, that’s 5,000 hours yearly of non-productive work—equivalent to $250,000+ in salary cost (at $50/hour average). Implementing ticketing typically costs $500–$2,000 yearly.
ROI Calculation
- Reduced agent workload: 30-40 hours/month saved = $15,000–$20,000 yearly
- Fewer repeat tickets: 20% reduction = $10,000–$15,000 yearly
- Better SLA compliance: Avoid penalties = variable, often $50,000+
- Faster new hire productivity: Save 1–2 weeks ramp time = $5,000–$10,000 per hire
