Exploring Walk-up Experience
Use the Walk-up Experience application to create and manage an on-site support channel where your users can get their requests and issues resolved and fulfilled in real-time, either in person or remotely by experienced agents.
Walk-up Experience overview
With Walk-up Experience, you can help to increase the productivity of the agents that serve the requesters. Your requesters can also get real-time, either in-person or remote help with their issues and devices.
The main purpose of a walk-up service center is to support and resolve the information technology (IT)-related issues that a service desk comes across. For example, an agent can get a request for a mouse device or keyboard, unlocking an account, or setting up software on a mobile device. Some common names that you might use for your own walk-up center are Tech Lounge, Service Center, or Genius Bar.
Walk-up Experience workflow
- The administrators configure and activate Walk-up Experience service channels, appointment booking schedules, walk-up locations, kiosks, and stockrooms. The administrators can also enable self-service online check-ins to support remote access to the requesters.
- The agents manage the queues, interactions, and the scheduled appointments. They can also view the assigned locations, stockrooms, and assets to support the employees in resolving their IT issues.
- The employees can schedule in-person or remote appointments to get their IT-related issues resolved. By using their mobile devices, your employees can view how long the wait list is in the queue, go to the kiosk location for quick resolutions, or book or modify appointments.
- The administrators and managers can view and analyze the Walk-up Experience performance by using the Walk-up Experience dashboard. For more information about the dashboard, see Monitoring Walk-up Experience performance.
