About this ranking
How this ranking is ordered
- By our editorial judgement, based on the research behind each review. No review shows a score yet, because the scorecard that will add one is still being built
- A help desk joins the ranking once we've reviewed it in full
- No vendor can pay to appear, rank higher or be featured
- Some links may earn us a commission. Any page with one says so, and commissions never change the order
- The full rules are on how we rank, including what we do when we get something wrong
What isn't here yet
- The rest of the help desks we list. You can browse them in the A–Z directory, with the facts we've checked on each
- Rankings by use case. We took four down in September 2026 because each one showed the same list as the others
Every review shows the date we last checked its facts on the vendor's own site.
