Welcome to Zammad

Zammad is a web based open source helpdesk/ticket system with many features to manage customer telephone calls and e-mails. It is distributed under the GNU AFFERO General Public License (AGPL) and tested on Linux, Solaris, AIX, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Mac OS 10.x. Do you receive many e-mails and want to answer them with a team of agents? You're going to love Zammad!
