Free Ticketing System for Your Whole Team
Ctrl+Grow gives you a support ticketing system with no per-agent fees: add every person who handles requests at no per-seat cost. It supports multiple inboxes, so support, sales, and billing can each run their own queue in one place instead of scattered email. It is included in your Ctrl+Grow membership, so there is no separate per-agent subscription that grows with your team.
The price rises every month. Lock yours for life by joining now.

Why most "free" tools aren't free for a team
Standalone tools in this category typically charge $15-50 per agent / month, so a 5-agent support team pays roughly $900 to $3,000 a year for a standalone help desk, before higher tiers. Free tiers exist, but they hit a seat cliff: free up to a handful of users, then per-seat billing for life. Ctrl+Grow takes the per-seat fee off the table entirely.
-
Free help desks usually cap agents (often at 2 or 3) or expire after a few months. Here there is no agent cap and no per-agent fee.
-
It supports multiple inboxes, which most free help desks restrict to a single shared inbox or lock behind a paid tier.
-
Ticketing sits alongside leave, onboarding, and training in one platform, so support is not a separate tool to buy and learn.
-
It is hosted for you. Open-source help desks are free only if you run and maintain the server yourself.

Frequently asked questions
Is the ticketing system really free with Ctrl+Grow?
The ticketing system is included in your Ctrl+Grow membership with no per-agent fees, so adding everyone who handles support costs nothing extra. The membership is a paid annual plan; ticketing is one of the tools that comes with it rather than a separate per-agent subscription.
How much does a ticketing system usually cost per agent?
Standalone help desks typically charge $15 to $50 per agent per month. For a 5-agent team that is roughly $900 to $3,000 a year. Ctrl+Grow charges nothing per agent because ticketing is bundled into the membership.
Is there a limit on how many agents I can add?
No. There are no per-agent fees and no seat cap, so your whole support team is in without the cost rising as you add people. That is the main difference from free help desks that limit agents.
Does it support multiple inboxes?
Yes. You can run multiple inboxes, so support, sales, and billing each get their own queue while everything stays in one place at support.ctrlgrow.com. Many free help desks limit you to a single shared inbox or charge more to add another, so multi-inbox support at no per-agent cost is a real difference.
Where do support tickets live?
Tickets are handled in one place at support.ctrlgrow.com, so requests stop scattering across personal inboxes. Each request is tracked from open to resolved with a clear history, across as many inboxes as your team needs.
Do I need technical skills to set up ticketing?
No. Setup is done for you as part of your Ctrl+Grow membership. You do not configure or self-host anything; a human on the team gets it running for your team.
Can I get a custom version deployed on my own server?
Yes. Beyond the hosted version included in your membership, the Ctrl+Grow team can shape the tool to your workflow and deploy that custom build on your own server, so you keep full control of your data. Code ownership comes as an add-on on top of a custom build, not a standalone download: you own the version built for you, not generic source. It is a higher tier on the value ladder, so the simplest way in is to talk to us about what you need.
