Past studies have tried to find out what help desks spend a majority of their time working on. With the huge number of calls help desk support departments receive, it may be surprising to find out what is the most common reason for the calls. With the wide range of sophisticated and technically complex tools available, these are often not the reason for employee calls to corporate help desk departments.

The main problem help desk teams deal with is a rather simple problem. The biggest reason for calls into help desks is actually attributed to the inadequacy of human memory. Although a simple question to solve, the reason for the majority of calls to help desk departments is due to a forgotten password. Past studies have shown that over 20% of IT related support calls is attributed to a lost or forgotten password. This is ahead of other common support problems such as performance or connection issues.

Although this is a rather simple problem, there is no easy solution for this problem. For more detailed information, you can read the full article found here.

Traditional IT Support sectors of the company were often known as IT Help Desk. However, some companies have chosen to rename their IT support sectors from Help Desks to Service Desk. The idea behind changing the name would be that the new name change would help promote a more service like attitude in these sectors of the company. However, this mentality was not fully embraced early on as many people were skeptical that the name change would be reflected in a change of attitude.

However, in recent times, the service desk mentality has been slowly evolving towards its name. Service desks are focusing more on why problems are occurring, rather than just solving problems. In doing so, they are hopefully preventing other problems from occurring which may be a more effective way of providing help desk support. It is reported that service has been dramatically improving recently as service providers continue to improve in the quality of service they provide to customers. The idea between the name change from help desk to support desk may actually be working as companies take on a more service oriented approach.
