Troubleshooting Software
Let your Users Work it Out
The unique question and answer format for developing scripts in Mapit Designer is ideal for developing troubleshooting solutions for your web site or intranet.
Many times users will call your customer support line with question "My (your product) doesn't work". An in every instance we start the response by saying "Can you describe the problem?"
Mapit Designer lets you start one step further into the process by describing what the problem could be: "My gadget doesn't turn on" "My software doesn't load" "My iThing is making strange noises when I hold it upside down".
Troubleshooting Tool
These frequently asked questions can be stored on your site for easy access from your customers or staff. Each question leads to one or more valid answers and Mapit Designer allows you to set conditions so that if the answer is "Yes" your users is directed to Answer A, if the answer is "No" Answer B and so on.
You can also collect text based information as part of troubleshooting process.
Each answer then becomes another question or gives the solution depending on your logic. As a troubleshooting tool Mapit Designer allows you to anticipate the different issues that arise for your customers and lead them through a sometimes complex path to the correct answer.
Troubleshooting Software
Crucially Mapit Designer can let you provide the solution at the end of each diagnostic pathway. This troubleshooting software is flexible enought to allow you to provide all the information a user may need. Alternatively you can provide a link to an appropriate webpage or customer service agent.
The actual path your user followed can be sent to another application for further analysis or response. This enables you to capture vital information about the way your product is used to help reduce similar incidents in the future.
