First steps with SysAid

Me and my organization are new to SysAid. Trying to get this running from the ground up. Any tips and tricks to help easily set things up? Currently working on sub types, templates, and workflows. Any suggestions on how to set things up are apprecaited!

I've inherited a Sysaid Helpdesk install on a 2003 server. Long story short... I need to download and install a full version of Sysaid free (preferably v.9.1.02 (once again, preferably x64). I am unable to migrate the database on this server because I'm guessing there is another program using an embedded SQL Express install. The migration fails on installing SQL Express, so I want to install v9 on a different server and migrate the database. Thanks in advance!

Hi there, I signed up for a free cloud account with login credential which does not work when attempted at 3 different browsers with the following error message: "Incorrect account ID. Letters must be typed in the correct case. Please make sure the Caps Lock key is disabled." Seem likes a common issue? Thanks.

I have setup a free cloud account and was sent the login details which allowed me to login fine. No more than 3hrs later i have tried to login again and it won't accept the credentials, even though i haven't changed anything. I tried to reset the password but it tells me it doesn't recognise the username/email address of the account i am trying to reset. Any ideas? SysAid support bluntly refusing to help as I'm not a paying customer. I might be a paying customer in the future but if i can't even logon to use the product then they are never going to win my business.

I'm looking to see if there is a way to assign a SR to an admin when they either send a message or post a note. Currently, it stays assigned to the group unless we manually change it. I've also noticed that the status stays on "new" even when an admin adds a note/sends a message or the end user adds a note. Any help would be awesome. Thanks!

We have a site in the US and a site in the Phillipines. Our sysaid server, we are considering putting in a DMZ to make it internet facing. We only use sysaid for helpdesk ticketing. Would we need an RDS server for this setup? I don't entirely understand what purpose an RDS server would serve if just using the sysaid server for helpdesk ticketing. Anyhow have an answer on that?

I thought I signed up for the Free service in cloud. Got a *.ourit.support URL. However, the user portal says it's v14.4.22 Pro Edition. There appears to be no way to distinguish what features are in the Free version from the others. I work for a nonprofit that has a zero dollar budget for this sort of thing. So I need to know from the get-go what features I can use, and which are going to go away in 30 days (or whatever). Could someone point me to a comparison matrix or something? Thanks!
