You can also checkout osticket.com.

If your host provides fantastico it can also be installed through there.

Free live chat I would reccomend www.websitealive.com/products_free.asp

Fair enough, but that doesn't stop it being a good product.

Yea true!

I looked into the software when i learning about perl and some what gave up mainly just lost interest in perl when php runs smoother (some areas).

I'll reccomend you Cerberus Free Version (www.cerberusweb.com/free_version.php) or Auracle Lite Version (www.auraclesupport.com/free.php).

Both are free and really good! You can test them if you want..

Another vote for Cerberus as well.

We used OSTicket before this and when we changed to cerberus it was like a breath of fresh air. It's GREAT!

Back then when we had the free perldesk, we really liked it and it worked great.
Burstnet is also using a highly modified perldesk v1.5 I believe. Works pretty nice as well ;)
