Nexus puts your helpdesk on a screen the whole room can see: what's waiting, what's about to breach, who's on the phones and how close the team is to today's goal. It runs on your own server or ours, and costs from £29 a month however many screens you put it on.

What changes when the queue is on the wall

Nobody has to ask what's waiting.

Unassigned tickets, first-reply time and SLA countdowns stay on screen all day. Tickets get picked up when they land, not when someone opens a report on Friday.

  • SLA countdowns turn amber before they breach
  • Unassigned, waiting and missed calls, live
  • Alerts to Slack, Teams and your phone (Pro)
A Nexus board showing 7 unassigned tickets, first reply 45 minutes, CSAT 96%, leaderboards, customer feedback and agent status.

The team can see the score.

Goals go green, amber or red as the day goes on. Leaderboards cover solves, replies and calls, there's an agent of the week, and the board throws confetti when the target falls.

  • Team goals and goal-tracked KPIs
  • Leaderboards for solves, replies and calls
  • Time-boxed contests with prizes (Pro)
The Nexus leaderboard view: a podium for the top three solvers and progress bars for the rest of the team.

The weekly report writes itself.

Branded PDF reports for the whole desk, a team, one agent or one client. Run one when you need it, or have it emailed and posted to Slack or Teams on a schedule. Client QBR packs come from the same data.

  • Your logo and your numbers on every page
  • Daily, weekly or monthly, for any scope
  • A quarter or financial year in review on one page
The Reports studio in Nexus: pick whole desk, a team or an agent, a timeframe and the sections to include, with a live preview of the PDF.

One server behind every screen.

The wall TV, a team lead's desktop, everyone's phone and a panel inside Zendesk all read from the same server. Screen Sync lets you reload, rotate and re-point every TV from your desk.

  • Web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android
  • TV mode that rotates full-screen views
  • Each screen keeps its own layout and look
Named dashboards in Nexus, each with its own layout, assigned to different screens.The Nexus phone layout: single-column KPI tiles and a leaderboard.

What a dashboard on the office TV costs

Cloud dashboard tools charge by dashboards, screens or seats, so the wall gets dearer the more it's used. Nexus is one flat price, with every screen and agent included.

Nexus Starter

£29/mo

TV mode, all six looks, unlimited screens and agents. Pro is £59 and Enterprise £119, both flat.

For MSPs: one template for every client's wall

Build a board once and push it to every client's screen. Change the template and every wall follows within seconds, while each client only ever sees their own tickets and devices. This is the Enterprise plan.

Board templates
Edit one template and every client screen follows, even ones that were switched off. Each keeps its own name, goal and client view.
White-label
Your colours, typeface and name on every screen, embed and PDF report, with Nexus branding hidden.
Client-scoped links
Each client sees their own tickets only. Isolation is enforced on the server, not hidden in the interface.
Devices per client
RMM, EDR, backup and uptime tools roll up to one row per client, next to that client's queue.
QBR packs
A customer-facing pack per client with their tickets, posture and your notes. On demand or emailed monthly, from Pro.

Midnight comes in nine colours

Set a colourway per screen, per dashboard or by time of day. Pick one here and the board recolours, and so does this site.

The Nexus board in the selected colourway.

Up and running the same afternoon

  1. Start the trial

    Pick a plan. Stripe Checkout takes a card but charges nothing for 14 days, and you're emailed before the trial ends.

  2. Run it, or let us

    One Docker command on a small VM, mini-PC or server you already have. Or tick managed hosting and we'll have it live at its own address.

  3. Connect your helpdesk

    Paste an API token into the setup wizard and the board fills itself. The licence renews on its own after that.

Things you can check

How Nexus is built, and the parts you can verify for yourself.

Security
Ed25519-signed licence keys, API tokens encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM, scrypt-hashed passcodes and SSRF-guarded fetches. How each one works.
Never stranded
The licence is checked offline on your server, so the board keeps running if we have an outage. Your data, settings and history stay with you. Continuity.
Telemetry
One opt-out beacon from self-hosted installs: licence id, version, plan, helpdesk product and an optional instance name. The full list.
Testing
More than 2,000 automated tests on every build, plus an end-to-end test that drives the real board in a real browser.
Release history
151 releases since v1.0, each with a plain-English entry. Changelog and RSS.

Questions

More in the FAQ, or ask directly.

What is Nexus?

A live wallboard for support teams. It reads your helpdesk (Zendesk, Freshdesk, Jira Service Management, ServiceNow, HaloPSA and eleven more) and shows tickets, SLAs, calls and team goals on one board for wall TVs, desks and phones. Calls refresh every 20 seconds and tickets every minute.

Do I have to host it myself?

No, it's your choice. By default Nexus is self-hosted: one Docker command on a small VM, mini-PC or server you already own, and your helpdesk data never reaches us. If you'd rather not run a server, managed hosting is £15 a month extra. We run your own private, isolated instance in a UK or EU region and keep it updated and backed up.

How do the free trial and billing work?

Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial through Stripe Checkout. A card is needed to start it, nothing is charged for 14 days, and you're emailed before the trial ends. Cancel before day 14 and you pay nothing. After that it's monthly or annual, in GBP ex VAT, and you can change plan or cancel any time from the billing portal. No card to hand? A 14-day trial key needs only your email.

Which helpdesks does it work with?

16, on every plan: Zendesk Support and Talk, Freshdesk, Freshservice, Jira Service Management, ServiceNow ITSM, HaloPSA, SuperOps, NinjaOne, ConnectWise PSA, Zoho Desk, Help Scout, Front, Intercom, HubSpot Service Hub, Gorgias and Kustomer. Beside the queue it reads 25 monitoring tools. UniFi is on every plan; Meraki, NinjaOne, Datto RMM, Huntress, Acronis, UptimeRobot, Datadog and the rest are on Enterprise. Enterprise also adds 52 ready-made connectors and 10 kinds of custom data, from Google Sheets and Excel to Airtable, Notion and Prometheus.

Does it work for an MSP with many clients?

Yes, that's what Enterprise is for. Build one board template and roll it out to every client's screen; edit it once and every wall follows. White-label puts your colours, typeface and name on every screen, embed and PDF report. Each client can get a link to their own tickets only, with isolation enforced on the server, and the monitoring panels roll devices, backup and security up to one row per client.

Is my data safe?

Self-hosted, your helpdesk data stays on your own server and never reaches us. The only thing a self-hosted install sends home is a minimal, opt-out licence beacon: licence id, version, plan, helpdesk product and an optional instance name. API keys are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM, and the licence is an Ed25519-signed key checked offline. The security page explains each one.

What happens if I cancel?

Your board keeps working until the end of the period you've paid for, plus a short grace window. After that the licence lapses and the board asks for a current licence key until you renew. Your server, settings, history and data stay yours throughout, and on managed hosting you can export your data or move to self-hosting.
