I’m looking for a very simple ticketing app to self host, first to put in use my new small home lab. My family often has me as the IT guy and want a lot of stuff from me so I’d like to host a simple ticketing system such as uvdesk or glpi, self hostel, lightweight and preferably dockerised.
Do anyone knows if something like that exist ? or is uvdesk the most simple ticketing app out there ?
families wont work like that
families want to stand in front of you, or phone you, and tell you the problems to your face, really really slowly, while constantly saying ‘um’ and ‘er’ and occasionally using inappropriate tech words because they saw them on tv on CSI last night.
careful when trying to get family do do stuff like this… you’ll end up in a situation where you ask your partner if you can go have some happy-go-bed-sexy-time and they’ll ask you if you put in a ticket for it yet.
I use Trello, which isn’t at all self hosted but it’s free and ready to go.
Yes but it’s not a ticketing system, more of a workaround and I want something I can host and manage, easy for my family to use, filling a form and I don’t want to have my all famille to have to create an account

I saw that but it doesn’t have any docker, that a bit of a turn down.
It doesn’t seem to be officially supported, but they do provide instructions for Docker Compose:
I’ve used Spiceworks self-hosted back in the day. Not sure how good it still is.
FreeScout.net is a great, free, and open source option. Takes its inspiration from HelpScout.
Freescout probably fits the bill and is 100% free - it’s one of those where they give the base platform away and monetize plugins.
On the flipside, the plugins are lifetime licenses are very cheap relative to the monthly charge levied by competing products.
Hahahahah, I’m sorry son, what’s your ticket number? SHeeewwwwwaaahhh yeahhhh I’m going to need a ticket number. You’re welcome to open one by emailing helpdesk@thesmithfamily.net and we’ll get with you just as soon as we can in the order received. Just know, our agreed SLA is between 4 and 8 business hours, depending on your grades this week.
“I understand sir, and I’m sorry to hear your WiFi is slow, I can absolutely help you with that. To get started, I’ll need your ticket number, 4-digit access PIN, and most recent math test.
Oh, I see here you earned a ‘C’, that only entitles you to 200Kbps down. If you are interested in our 1Mbps service we need proof of a ‘B’ - or if you would like to submit an ‘A’ we can offer our gold-tier 500Mbps service, and if you would like to take advantage of that offer during this marking period I can add in complementary 5ms ping SLA as well. Also your mother has told you three times to take the trash out, Anthony.”
