# Help Desk Software Landscape: Oracle, Groove, SysAid, LiveAgent

> A look at the help desk software market through four companies that could not be more different: Oracle, the enterprise incumbent bundling service into a suite; Groove, the bootstrapped small-business help desk; SysAid, the Israeli IT service management vendor now known as much for a 2023 zero-day as for its product; and Quality Unit's LiveAgent, a self-funded, multichannel help desk built in Bratislava. The story maps who each one is for and what their choices say about where support software is heading.

## Achievements

- Oracle Service embeds customer support into a broader CX and enterprise suite used by large organizations worldwide.
- Groove reached roughly $5M ARR bootstrapped, without paid advertising, largely via its public Journey to $100K blog.
- SysAid is used by 10,000+ IT teams and pushed a patch for CVE-2023-47246 within days of disclosure.
- Quality Unit's LiveAgent offers multichannel support - email, live chat, voice, and social - as a self-funded company.
