Managing Enterprise Mobile Devices: HappyFox Help Desk + MS Intune for Enterprise IT Support

Last Updated: June 5, 2025

Checking device status for every support ticket? Switching between MS Intune and your help desk for enterprise device troubleshooting? When your help desk lives outside your enterprise device management ecosystem, every ticket becomes a multi-step process. For enterprise IT teams managing mobile devices through Intune, this disconnect impacts both efficiency and response times.

The Help Desk Integration Challenge

Enterprise IT support teams in enterprise environments face several hurdles when their help desk isn’t integrated with MS Intune:

  • Device information missing from support tickets
  • Constant switching between MS Intune and help desk interfaces
  • Manual linking of tickets to specific enterprise devices
  • Disconnected user-device relationships in enterprise environments
  • Delayed device status updates in tickets
  • Inefficient handling of enterprise device-related tickets

Bridging the Gap with HappyFox Help Desk

HappyFox is a comprehensive help desk ticketing system that brings your MS Intune device management directly into your support workflow. Our integration enables IT teams to access device information, track issues, and manage support tickets without leaving their help desk.

Integration Features in Action

  • Check device compliance status
  • Monitor device assignment status

Use Case

An enterprise IT team supporting 10,000+ devices can reduce their average resolution time by 60% by having immediate access to device information within tickets. Password reset tickets, previously requiring multiple tool switches, now takes seconds with complete device context available.

2. Smart Device-Ticket Association

  • Link tickets to specific devices automatically
  • Track device-specific issues over time
  • View device history in tickets
  • Monitor recurring problems

Use Case

A support team handling device compliance issues can now automatically associate tickets with affected devices, enabling them to spot patterns and address root causes more effectively.

3. User-Device Relationship Management

  • See all devices assigned to users
  • Track device ownership changes
  • Manage device assignments
  • Monitor user device history

Use Case

During a major device refresh project, the IT team can use the integrated view to manage device transitions smoothly, ensuring no support tickets are lost in the process.

4. Real-Time Status Updates

  • Monitor device status changes
  • Track compliance updates
  • View recent modifications
  • Get immediate alerts

Use Case

Security teams can now receive immediate notifications when device compliance issues generate support tickets, enabling faster response to potential security risks.
