# Teamwork Desk

Help desk for client-service teams, linked to Teamwork.com projects, with SLAs from the Premium plan.

47 points out of 100. #10 of 12 help desks. Vendor: Teamwork.com. Website: https://www.teamwork.com/desk/

- Starter costs $9.50 per user a month billed yearly and allows up to 10 agents [1].
- Live chat and triggers start on Pro, at $17 per user a month billed yearly [1].
- SLA policies, satisfaction ratings and full reporting need Premium, $33 per user a month billed yearly [1][7].
- Teamwork.com names SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 on its security page [4].
- There is no free plan; paid plans include a 30-day trial [1].

Verdict: Teamwork Desk suits agencies and service teams that already track work in Teamwork.com, and Starter costs $9.50 per user [1][2]. The catch is channels and workflow depth: the pages show email and live chat only, SLAs wait until Premium, and the AI teammate is in early access [1][3][7][10]. Best for: Agencies and service teams that tie tickets to project work.
