django-helpdesk is a Django-powered ticket tracking application for running an internal or small-business helpdesk. It can be integrated into an existing Django project or run standalone via Docker, with support for tickets, queues, email intake, and search.

Use cases

  • run an internal IT helpdesk with ticket tracking
  • manage customer support requests via email and web forms
  • track bugs, incidents, and cases for a small business
  • self-host a service desk on Django
  • organize support tickets into queues with staff assignment
  • replace a commercial helpdesk with an open-source ticket system

When to choose

  • you already use Django and want a pluggable ticket tracker
  • you need a self-hosted, BSD-licensed helpdesk with no per-agent fees
  • you want email-to-ticket intake and multi-queue support out of the box

When to avoid

  • you need a full modern ITSM suite with SLAs, CMDB, and change management
  • you are not using Python/Django and want a language-agnostic standalone product
  • you need heavy customization beyond what the app's extension points allow
