FAQ
Common questions.
Where each platform fits, what to test, and how to measure proof.
What should we compare with Thread?
Focus the evaluation on MSP support conversations in Teams and Slack. Then test whether the complete setup also covers the endpoint cases your team needs to resolve.
Can we keep our existing tools?
Yes. GenticFlow can be your primary support platform or work alongside an RMM and connect to a supported PSA or service desk. Keeping products side by side does not imply a direct integration between them.
