CUSTOMER SUPPORT TICKET HOSTING

What Is osTicket?

osTicket is a PHP help desk application developed by Enhancesoft. It's been a go-to open-source ticketing tool for many years, especially with small businesses and in-house IT teams. Every email or form submission becomes a ticket with its own number, status, and full history, so nothing gets lost in a shared inbox.

You can route tickets to departments, assign them to agents, set service level agreements (SLAs), and use canned responses for common questions. Custom forms collect the details you need up front, and a customer portal lets people check the status of their requests without emailing you again.

LAUNCH YOUR HELP DESK IN MINUTES

Why Choose HostPapa for osTicket Hosting?

HostPapa gives you everything osTicket needs in one plan: PHP, MySQL, cPanel, and 400+ one-click apps through Softaculous, plus a FREE SSL certificate to protect your customers' messages. Every Web Hosting plan also includes business email accounts, so you can create the support@yourbrand.com address that feeds your help desk right in cPanel.

You can pipe incoming email straight into osTicket through cPanel, or fetch it on a schedule with a cron job that runs every 10 to 30 minutes on our shared plans. Outgoing replies and alerts count toward your plan's hourly email limit of 200 to 600 messages, which is plenty for a small support team. If you handle a high volume of tickets, need email fetched every minute, or support several brands from one install, VPS Hosting gives you dedicated resources and full control over scheduling.

Already using osTicket somewhere else? Our FREE website and domain migration means our team can help move your help desk and ticket history over.
