History
In 1994 iSupport Software (then GWI Software) released a product called Help! for Lotus Notes. Building on the collaborative features of Lotus Notes, Help! was a critical and commercial success. InfoWorld named Help! for Lotus Notes an IT Help Desk Test Center winner May 25, 1998, beating out both HEAT and Remedy Action Request System. Later that year InfoWorld named Lotus Notes a Product of the Year, citing its review of Help! for Lotus Notes as one of the deciding factors in its choice.
In early 2000 Help! for Lotus Notes was ported to .Net and Help! for Microsoft SQL was released. Help! was later re branded c.Support (the c standing for collaborative) and in 2010 the product and company were again re branded as iSupport Software.
