SmarterTrack review
A broad help desk with free access, VoIP support, and tiered paid editions.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
SmarterTrack is help desk software for individuals, small businesses, enterprises, web hosts, and ISPs. It brings email ticketing and issue tracking together with live chat, customer portals, a searchable knowledge base, customer community features, call logging, VoIP integration, task management, reporting, and event-based workflow automation. Teams can choose a Windows-based installed edition, a hosted service, or a free single-agent edition. It fits organizations that want customer support, self-service, phone-related workflows, and community engagement in one product.
Pricing is structured around four editions. Free supports one agent and uses functionality based on the Enterprise edition; an installed edition is available. Professional is priced at $400 and starts with two agents, adding email ticketing, live chat, a customer portal, and a knowledge base. Enterprise is priced at $900 and starts with five agents, adding multiple brands, customizable forms, single sign-on, and scheduled email reports. Hosted is $20 per agent per month and includes the Hosted Enterprise edition, the Communicator softphone, and free technical support. The product also offers routing, escalations, notifications, time logging, custom reports, and SLA-related event handling for teams needing more structured operations.
SmarterTrack’s ecosystem is focused rather than broad. It connects with VoIP systems, Google Maps, Bing Maps, and WHMCS, while its documented web services API supports integrations and custom automation. That combination suits web hosts, ISPs, and support teams where calls, ticket events, and customer-facing resources matter. Choose it when free entry, VoIP, community features, and workflow controls are priorities. Consider another help desk when a wider integration ecosystem, broader platform coverage, or more straightforward paid-plan structure matters more than this product’s combined support and communication tools.
