Alga

Alga is a lightweight productivity layer for MSP help desks. Instead of reading through long ticket threads or drafting replies from scratch, technicians open a ticket in ConnectWise and Alga surfaces the context they need: a clear title, a summary of the conversation so far, an appropriate category, and guidance on how to proceed.

The extension is built specifically for Managed Service Providers and IT technicians, and its stated goals are improving SLA response times and reducing the mental fatigue that comes from handling repetitive tickets. Because it works inside the browser alongside ConnectWise, it supports both cloud and on-prem ConnectWise users on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Alga is free to install and is distributed through the Chrome Web Store by nineminds.com. The listing notes it processes personally identifiable information, user activity, and website content as part of its core functionality, so IT teams should review the privacy policy before rolling it out across a help desk.
