Trudesk is an open-source help desk and ticketing application built with NodeJS and MongoDB. It provides real-time tickets, agent-customer chat, email-to-ticket conversion, and a documented API for third-party integrations.

Use cases

  • run a self-hosted help desk for customer support
  • manage support tickets with teams, groups, and tags
  • convert incoming emails into tickets via IMAP polling
  • chat with customers and agents in real time
  • track support workload with reports and visual graphs
  • integrate ticketing with third-party apps via API

When to choose

  • you need a free, self-hosted alternative to commercial help desks like Zendesk
  • your stack is NodeJS/MongoDB and you want full control over deployment
  • you want email-to-ticket automation and built-in chat in one tool

When to avoid

  • you need a SaaS solution with zero infrastructure to manage
  • you cannot run MongoDB (and optionally Elasticsearch) alongside the app
  • you require enterprise features available only in the paid cloud edition
