When to pick LinaDesk

Where LinaDesk wins

Your data cannot leave your network

Regulated industries, government, defense, healthcare, or organizations subject to KVKK / GDPR audits typically require ticket bodies to stay on-premises. LinaDesk's architecture makes this the default.

Cost predictability across years

SaaS ITSM pricing scales linearly with headcount. A 50-technician team ordering per-agent at $50/mo pays $30k/year — every year. LinaDesk's fixed annual license removes that headcount tax.

Turkish IT context first-class

KVKK compliance, TCK 138 (kişisel veri) references, Turkish holidays in the SLA calendar, Turkish company hierarchies (şube/bölge/firma) — built-in, not translated afterward.

You'll never buy an "add-on"

Change Management, Problem Management, Remote Desktop and CMDB are standard modules — not upsells. The price you pay includes them.
