Upcoming Changes

HELP CENTER

New Home for the Chrome River Help Desk Service Portal

We are excited to announce that we will be migrating the Chrome River administrator Help Desk Service Portal to a new platform at the end of January. In anticipation of this move, we have a new article in the Chrome River Help Center that explains how you will be able to interact with our service teams for current and new tickets.

The new platform will allow us to introduce new features to better serve you, including AI capabilities for faster triaging and ticket routing. In addition, we will offer options for simplifying ticket creation as we continue to make incremental improvements to your experience.

We anticipate the new service portal will become available on January 27. Further details will be available in the next release.
