Support ops for the team behind a product

Software support is its own discipline: product-aware tickets, engineering escalation paths, customer-health metrics, and tight feedback loops. Orbit gives software support teams the platform without forcing them into a generic CRM.

Who it's for

  • Software vendors with customer support orgs
  • SaaS support teams at growth-stage companies
  • Product help desks serving B2B customers

Pain points we solve

  • Engineering escalations bouncing between Jira and the support tool
  • Customer context lost between sales and support
  • Health metrics not flowing back to product or CSM

Frequently asked questions

Does Orbit work for in-house product support teams?
Yes — software companies use Orbit for L1/L2 customer support, internal escalations, and engineering handoff. The ticket model handles bug reports, feature requests, and account questions in one queue.
Can Orbit integrate with our product analytics or issue tracker?
Email-to-ticket, API webhooks, and Zapier connections cover most flows into Jira, Linear, or Sentry. Orbit owns the customer-facing layer; engineering tools own the internal layer.
