Give clients a self-service window without losing control

A client portal is only useful if it reduces the support tax, not increases it. Orbit's portal is intentionally lean: clients submit tickets, see status, review invoices, and pay — and the team's actual workflow stays clean.

Who it's for

  • MSPs offering a self-service experience to clients
  • Service teams reducing 'what's the status?' inquiries
  • Software support teams letting customers track tickets
  • Internal IT teams giving employees a request portal

Pain points we solve

  • Clients emailing for status when they could check themselves
  • Portal tools that double the work of the internal team
  • Inconsistent visibility — some clients see everything, some see nothing
  • Portal logins clients never use

How Orbit fits

Orbit's portal gives clients exactly what they need: a way to open new requests, see open ticket status, see history, view invoices, and pay. Everything else stays internal. There's no separate workflow — what your team does in Orbit shows up correctly in the portal.

Capabilities

What Orbit delivers

Ticket submission and history

Clients can open new tickets, see open status, and browse closed-ticket history without calling for an update.

Invoice review and pay

Invoices appear in the portal with Stripe-powered pay buttons — no separate billing portal needed.

Per-client branding

Portal can be branded per client (logo, colors), useful for white-label MSP arrangements.

Configurable visibility

Choose what's visible — open tickets only, tickets + invoices, full account view. Per-client controls available.

Multi-contact access

Multiple contacts per client can have portal access with appropriate permissions.

Common use cases

  • Internal IT portal for employee requests

Frequently asked questions

Can we hide internal notes from the portal?
Yes — internal notes are never visible in the portal. The portal only shows the customer-facing thread.
Can clients have read-only access?
Yes. Portal permissions can be granular: submit-only, view-only, or full self-service.
