A help desk is a service desk that deals with IT and customer support. It’s not just for IT people, it’s for anyone who needs assistance with their computer or other technology. A helpdesk can handle anything from installation of software to password resets to troubleshooting hardware issues.
A typical helpdesk will have agents who answer phone calls and emails, while working on solving technology related problems remotely.
