What Is Sidequest?

Sidequest is a ‘Slack-first’ help desk and project management solution. Unlike traditional ticketing systems that merely send notifications to Slack, Sidequest lives entirely within the Slack workspace. It allows users to submit, track, and manage personal tasks and team tickets without opening an external browser tab or mobile app. By leveraging Slack's own user database and interface blocks, it provides features like private help desk channels, shared team inboxes, and automated task history. It is designed to solve the ‘lost in Slack’ problem, ensuring that every request—whether it's a new laptop for an employee or a bug report—is documented, assigned, and resolved within a structured workflow.

Sidequest Pricing

Sidequest offers two pricing plans, including:

  • Sidequest To Go: $1.50/Slack user/month
  • Sidequest custom: Custom pricing

Is Sidequest Right For You?

Sidequest Features

Teams can automate business processes with ease. The software helps trigger Sidequest tasks automatically when a specific emoji is added to a message or when a new member joins a channel, perfectly aligning with your custom workflows.

See How It Works

The software helps manage your own to-do list. In addition to team tickets, users get a personal dashboard within Slack to track their individual priorities, start dates, and deadlines, acting as a full-fledged personal task manager.

See How It Works

The software helps to create dedicated spaces for different teams. Requesters can submit tickets to a closed channel they don't even have to be a member of, allowing support agents to collaborate privately while keeping the requester updated via threads.
