Description: Open Source Support tracker In Your Browser
 Support Incident Tracker (or SiT!) is a Free Software/Open Source (GPL) web based application which uses PHP and MySQL  
 for tracking technical support calls/emails (also commonly known as a 'Help Desk' or 'Support Ticket System'). 
 Manage contacts, sites, technical support contracts and support incidents in one place. Send emails directly from SiT!, 
 attach files and record every communication in the incident log. SiT is aware of Service Level Agreements and incidents 
 are flagged if they stray outside of them.
