Desktop support is an IT function focused on troubleshooting and maintaining end-user computers, software installations, peripherals, and network connectivity within an organization. Desktop support technicians handle tickets ranging from password resets and hardware repairs to software updates and onboarding new employees' equipment. It's typically an entry-level IT role that serves as a stepping stone to system administration or broader technical support careers.
