The panel's verdict
LeadDesk Plc, headquartered in Helsinki with a Berlin subsidiary, sells four modules — outbound sales, customer service, an AI chatbot and workforce management — and the scoring favours its channel and ecosystem story over its ticketing engine. Omnichannel and integrations score 6-7: phone, email, webchat, SMS and Facebook Messenger feed a single conversation view, backed by 100-plus integrations, named CRM partners, an OpenAPI and webhooks. Knowledge and self-service lands at 5-7, resting on named cases — 85% chat deflection at Varma, over 60% of inquiries automated at Göteborg Energi — rather than a managed help centre. The ticketing core is the weak point at 2-4: judges found no public information on SLA timers, escalation chains, assignment models or ticket search, and read the ticket as a logged interaction rather than managed workload. Sovereignty is the genuine split, 4-6: the vendor's own pages state all data is stored in the EU and processed primarily within the EU/EEA, but we found no published subprocessor list or named data-centre provider, so judges weigh the chain differently. Weighted verdicts span 4.3 to 5.7.
Speaks for it
- Phone, email, webchat, SMS and Facebook Messenger feed a single conversation view with the customer's full history across channels.
- 100-plus integrations include named CRM partners Salesforce, Zendesk, HubSpot, Dynamics and Pipedrive, alongside an OpenAPI, webhooks and a team building custom connectors.
- Deflection carries named customer numbers, including 85% chat deflection at Varma and over 60% of inquiries automated at Göteborg Energi.
- Telephony runs on the vendor's own platform with a stated 99.95% uptime guarantee and call recordings.
- The privacy notice sets out controller and processor roles, machine-readable export and a Data Protection Officer in Helsinki, alongside SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certification.
Held against it
- Ticketing core scores run 2-4, and we found no public information on SLA timers, escalation chains, ticket assignment or search across ticket bodies.
- Self-service rests on a chatbot knowledge source — we found no public information on article workflow, versioning, review dates or reporting on which content deflects.
- The published legal documents list terms and privacy notices only, with no data processing agreement among them.
- We found no published subprocessor list and no named data-centre provider, so the EU-storage statements rest on the vendor's own pages.
- We found no public prices on any captured page; the published buying route is a personalised demo via an account manager.
Best for
- You run phone-heavy omnichannel support where every channel must land in one queue with the customer's full history on one screen.
- You want chatbot deflection backed by named customer cases, with RPA actions into inventory, delivery data or CRM.
- Your agents work inside Salesforce, Zendesk, HubSpot, Dynamics or Pipedrive and need click-to-call with automatic logging inside the CRM.
- You are a European buyer prioritising a Finnish contracting entity and a Finnish lead supervisory authority, with the vendor's own statements that all data is stored in the EU.
Avoid if
- You run your team against SLA promises — the pages treat the ticket as a logged interaction rather than managed workload, and ticketing scores run 2-4.
- You must run a managed help centre with editorial workflow, versioning and review dates rather than chatbot-first deflection.
- Your procurement requires a signable data processing agreement before signature — the published legal documents list terms and privacy notices only.
- You need stated retention for the ticket archive itself — the only published retention figure is deletion of user accounts after 24 months of inactivity.

Ticketing, queues & SLA
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
The engine: how work is routed, prioritised, escalated and measured — and whether an agent can find the ticket they need among ten thousand.
0 — A shared mailbox with labels; no ownership, no status model, no history beyond the thread.
3 — Tickets with assignment and open/closed status, but routing is manual, there are no SLA timers and search covers subject lines only.
5 — Queues with rules-based routing, priorities, a working status model, SLA timers with breach warnings, and full-text search across ticket bodies.
8 — Business-hours-aware SLA policies per queue or customer, escalation chains, macros and triggers, merge and split, and reporting on first-response and resolution time by agent and queue.
10 — The workload is managed rather than merely tracked: capacity-aware assignment, SLA per contract with reporting an account manager could show a customer, audit of every status change, and search that finds the ticket from a half-remembered phrase.
The Support Lead
Customisable queues and reporting are claimed, every interaction including tickets is recorded automatically in one place, and the IVR routes a caller to the right agent — that is a real queue, not a shared mailbox. But we found no public information on SLA timers, breach warnings, escalation chains or ticket search, and without timers that warn before the SLA breaches I cannot run my twelve agents against a promise the sales team made. 1 4 7
The Agent Advocate
Customisable queues, campaigns and reports exist, and every call, SMS and ticket is logged automatically in one place — but that is where the evidence stops. I found no public information on SLA timers and breach warnings, escalation chains, macros, merge and split, or whether search can find a ticket from a half-remembered phrase in its body — the things that decide day four hundred, not day one. 1 7
The Data Protection Officer
Queues and customisable reporting are advertised and every interaction including tickets is logged automatically, but I found no public information on a ticket status model, assignment, SLA timers, escalation chains, or search across ticket bodies. The published pages treat the ticket as a logged interaction rather than a managed workload. 1 7
The Shop Operator
Every call, SMS and ticket is logged automatically in one place, and queues and reports are customisable, which is the engine room I need for parcel-volume contact. But I found no public information on SLA timers, escalation chains, macros, ticket merge and split, or full-text search across ticket bodies, so what is public shows interactions being tracked rather than workload management. 1 7
The Integrator
Tickets are named among the automatically logged interaction types, and customisable queues, campaigns and reporting are advertised on the homepage. We found no public information on assignment and status models, rules-based routing, SLA timers with breach warnings, escalation chains, or ticket search — the engine's mechanics are simply not on the captured pages. 1 7
The Skeptic
The pages show customisable queues and reporting, and interactions — calls, SMS, tickets — logged automatically in one place, but that is where the evidence stops. We found no public information on ticket assignment, status models, SLA timers, escalation chains or search across ticket bodies, so this reads as an interaction log with queues, not an evidenced ticketing engine. 1 7
Channels in one queue
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Email, chat, phone, portal, messengers and social — judged on what actually lands in the same queue with the same history, not on how many channel logos the marketing page carries.
0 — Email only.
3 — Email plus one more channel, but the second lives in its own inbox: no shared history, and a customer who switches channel starts again.
5 — Email, a web form or portal and live chat all landing as tickets in one queue, with the customer's history visible whichever channel they used.
8 — The above plus telephony integration with call logging, at least one messenger (WhatsApp, Signal or similar) with its consent handling stated, and a customer portal where a requester can see their own tickets.
10 — Channel is an implementation detail: every channel including voice and messengers writes to one conversation with one history, agents answer from one screen, and the customer can move between channels mid-issue without repeating themselves.
The Support Lead
Voice, email, webchat, SMS and Facebook Messenger are all named, with all customer history from every channel in a single conversation view — that line appears on both the English and German pages — and calls, SMS and tickets are logged automatically in one place. Telephony is native here, with call recordings and click-to-call. We found no public information on a requester-visible customer portal or on consent handling for the messenger channel, which keeps it below the top band. 4 5 7
The Agent Advocate
Phone, email, webchat, SMS and Facebook Messenger all feed a single conversation view with the customer's full history, calls are logged automatically, and a chatbot hands off to a live agent with the whole context already on screen — one screen rather than five tabs. What I found no public information on is a customer portal where requesters see their own tickets, or stated consent handling for the messenger channel. 4 5 7
The Data Protection Officer
Phone, email, webchat, SMS and Facebook Messenger all land in one system, telephony is core to the platform with automatic call logging and recordings, and the customer's full history is shown in a single conversation view across channels. I found no public information on a customer portal where a requester sees their own tickets, and the Messenger offering says nothing about consent handling, so I stop below the higher mark. 4 5 7
The Shop Operator
Phone, email, webchat, SMS and Facebook Messenger all land with every interaction recorded automatically in one place, and the vendor sells a single conversation view showing all customer history from every channel — the caller after the chatter does not start again. I found no public information on WhatsApp or on a customer portal where a requester sees their own tickets, and the messenger's consent handling is not stated, which keeps this a step short of the top. 1 4 7
The Integrator
Phone, email, webchat, SMS and Facebook Messenger all land in one system, every interaction is recorded automatically in one place, and a single conversation view shows the customer's history from every channel. Telephony is native to the platform with 99.95 percent uptime claims and call recordings. We found no public information on a customer portal where requesters see their own tickets, or on consent handling for the messenger channel. 1 4 5 7
The Skeptic
Phone, email, webchat, SMS and Facebook Messenger are named, all interactions are logged in one place, and the pages promise a single conversation view with full customer history across channels — that is more channel logos with one queue behind them than most. We found no public information on consent handling for the messenger channel or a requester-facing portal where a customer sees their own tickets, which keeps this short of the top anchors. 4 5 7
Knowledge base & deflection
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether the product reduces the number of tickets as well as organising them: public help centre, article workflow, suggestions to agents and to customers.
0 — No knowledge base; answers live in agents' heads and old tickets.
3 — A basic article list, public or internal, with no editorial workflow, no versioning and no link between articles and tickets.
5 — A searchable public help centre with categories, draft and publish states, and agents able to insert an article into a reply.
8 — Article suggestions to the customer before they submit and to the agent while they answer, multilingual articles, review dates that flag stale content, and reporting on which articles deflect.
10 — Knowledge is a managed asset: gaps identified from unanswered tickets, article performance measured against ticket volume by topic, versioned content with approval, and deflection reported as a number the team can act on.
The Support Lead
Deflection is their best story: an AI knowledgebase agents maintain through a chatbot studio that suggests questions to learn, multilingual answers via an LLM chatbot, and named customers reporting 85% chat deflection and over 60% of inquiries automated — more evidence than most AI-powered brochures give me, though solve up to 90% is exactly the claim I would check against the queue on a Monday morning. We found no public information on a searchable help centre, article review dates, or reporting on which content deflects. 6
The Agent Advocate
Deflection is the best-evidenced story on these pages: named customers report 85% chat deflection, over 60% of inquiries automated and 22% less agent load, from a multilingual chatbot drawing on a knowledge source agents maintain themselves. But I found no public help centre, no draft-and-publish workflow, no versioning or review dates, and nothing showing an agent gets article suggestions while typing a reply. 6
The Data Protection Officer
Deflection is the centre of the story with named customer outcomes — an 85% chat deflection at Varma and over 60% at Göteborg Energi — plus a dynamic knowledge source admins can update, multilingual answering via an LLM chatbot, and a studio that suggests questions to learn. What I found no public information on is the editorial side: article workflow, versioning, review dates, and reporting that ties deflection to specific published content. 6
The Shop Operator
Deflection is the real thing here, with named buyers and numbers: Varma's chatbot takes 85% of chat conversations, Göteborg Energi over 60% of all inquiries, and Nordisk Film cut agent load 22% across channels — genuine December ticket-count material. But the knowledge base is a chatbot asset rather than a managed help centre: I found no public information on article editorial workflow, versioning, review dates, or reporting on which knowledge items deflect. 6
The Integrator
Deflection is clearly the product's centre of gravity: an AI knowledgebase agents maintain through a chatbot studio, multilingual LLM answers, chatbots answering before a live agent with full context, and customer cases quoting 85 percent chat deflection at Varma and over 60 percent of inquiries automated at Göteborg Energi. We found no public information on a public help centre with editorial workflow, versioning, review dates, or reporting on which articles deflect — the deflection numbers are case-study claims rather than an in-product figure a team can act on. 6
The Skeptic
Deflection is the whole story here: an AI knowledge base that admins can update, multilingual answers, a chatbot studio agents maintain, and named customer results such as 85 percent chat deflection and a 22 percent agent-load reduction. What we found no public information on is the classical help-centre machinery — a public article site, draft and publish workflow, versioning, review dates, or reporting on which articles deflect — so I credit the measured deflection but not the editorial asset. 6
Customer data protection
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
A ticket archive is personal data written by the data subject. Retention, deletion, access control, subject rights, and what the vendor does with attachments — judged on what executes rather than what is promised.
0 — No retention policy stated, no deletion path, agents all see everything, and no DPA is published.
3 — A DPA on request and coarse roles; deletion is described as something the customer arranges, and there is no stated retention period.
5 — A signable DPA published, configurable agent roles and queue-level visibility, a stated retention period, and deletion of a requester's data that can actually be executed.
8 — Automatic retention rules per queue or data category, attachment handling stated, an audit log of who opened which ticket, documented support for access and erasure requests, and pseudonymisation or redaction of ticket content.
10 — Built for a data-protection audit: retention executed and evidenced per category, field-level redaction, full audit trail, subprocessor list published, and the vendor's own support access to customer instances documented and consent-gated.
The Support Lead
The privacy notice is genuinely thorough — controller and processor roles, machine-readable export, a data protection officer in Helsinki, stated security measures — and SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications are claimed. But the published legal documents list terms and privacy notices only, with no data processing agreement among them, and the only retention figure is deletion of user accounts after 24 months of inactivity. We found no public information on per-queue retention rules, agent roles and queue-level visibility, audit logs, or redaction of ticket content. 1 2 5
The Agent Advocate
The privacy notice is genuinely thorough on the vendor side — controller and processor roles, a DPO in Helsinki, transfer safeguards, portability rights, and a 24-month inactivity deletion rule — but that rule covers user accounts, not the ticket archive. I found no published data processing agreement in the listed legal documents, no stated retention for requesters' ticket data, and no public information on configurable agent roles, queue-level visibility, or an audit trail of who opened which ticket. 1 2 5
The Data Protection Officer
The privacy notice defines controller and processor roles cleanly, names a Data Protection Officer, states technical and organisational measures and machine-readable export, and retention appears only as deletion after cancellation or 24 months of account inactivity. I found no public information on a signable data processing agreement, configurable agent roles or queue-level visibility, an audit log of who opened which ticket, attachment handling, or redaction of ticket content — the things I would audit — and nothing on whether the vendor's own support can open a customer ticket. 1 2 5
The Shop Operator
The privacy notice is properly GDPR-articulated — controller and processor roles, machine-readable export, deletion after 24 months of inactivity, technical and organisational measures, and transfers covered by adequacy, the Data Privacy Framework and standard contractual clauses — plus SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certification. I found no public information on a published, signable data processing agreement, per-queue retention rules, attachment handling, or an audit log of who opened which ticket. 1 2 5
The Integrator
The privacy notice sets out controller and processor roles, access-controlled systems with access granted only where work requires it, machine-readable export, and deletion after cancellation or 24 months of inactivity, and the security page advertises SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certification. We found no public information on a signable DPA among the published legal documents, configurable agent roles or queue-level visibility, an audit log of ticket access, or execution of a requester's access or erasure request. 1 2 3
The Skeptic
The privacy notice does real work: controller and processor roles are stated, access is limited to those whose work requires it, exports come in machine-readable form, and deletion follows cancellation or 24 months of inactivity. But we found no public information on a signable data-processing agreement in the published document list, configurable agent roles or queue-level visibility, a retention period for the ticket archive itself, or an audit log of who opened which ticket. 1 2
Integrations & API
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
The systems a helpdesk has to reach — CRM, shop, order management, identity — and whether the API is documented for building or gated behind a partner conversation.
0 — No API and no named integrations; context is copied in by hand.
3 — A handful of native integrations and a read-mostly API, with no webhooks and no documented rate limits.
5 — Named integrations for common CRM and shop systems, a documented REST API with keys, webhooks for the core ticket events, and SSO.
8 — Maintained bidirectional integrations, customer context from other systems shown inside the ticket, SCIM provisioning, documented rate limits and a sandbox.
10 — A component rather than a destination: versioned API with a deprecation policy, event streaming both directions, an app framework for in-ticket extensions, and integrations the vendor maintains rather than lists.
The Support Lead
One hundred-plus integrations with Salesforce, Zendesk, HubSpot, Dynamics and Pipedrive named, webhooks, an OpenAPI with a developers' guide, real-time sync to a data warehouse, an app store, and a professional services team building custom connectors — this is documented for building, not gated behind a partner conversation. We found no public information on single sign-on, SCIM provisioning, documented rate limits or a sandbox. 2 7
The Agent Advocate
A hundred-plus integrations with named CRM partners, click-to-call in the CRM that logs itself, webhooks, an OpenAPI, a developers' guide and real-time sync to data warehouses — this is the part an agent would actually feel daily. Missing publicly: single sign-on, documented rate limits, a sandbox, and any evidence that a customer's record from the CRM opens inside the ticket rather than in another tab. 2 7
The Data Protection Officer
More than one hundred integrations are listed with named CRM partners including Salesforce and Zendesk, an OpenAPI with developer documentation, webhooks, real-time sync into data warehouses, and a services team that builds custom connectors. I found no public information on single sign-on, SCIM provisioning, documented rate limits, or a sandbox, which keeps this below the top band. 2 7
The Shop Operator
A hundred-plus integrations with named CRM partners, click-to-call and automatic logging inside the CRM, webhooks, real-time contact updates, data-warehouse export, an OpenAPI with developer documentation, and an in-house team building custom connectors. Best for my shop: the chatbot's automation reaches inventory and delivery data, so parcel context can reach the conversation; I found no public information on SCIM provisioning, documented rate limits or a sandbox. 2 6 7
The Integrator
This is a real integrations page: named CRM partners across Salesforce, Zendesk, HubSpot, Dynamics and Pipedrive with click-to-call and automatic logging inside the CRM, over 100 integrations, a developers website with a comprehensive guide, OpenAPI for custom builds, webhooks, real-time data-warehouse sync, and a professional services team that builds connectors. We found no public information on documented rate limits, SCIM provisioning, a sandbox, or SSO — the pieces I personally need before wiring an identity provider and building safely. 2 7
The Skeptic
This page earns its keep: 100-plus integrations, named CRM partners from Salesforce to Pipedrive, click-to-call inside the CRM with automatic logging, real-time contact sync and trigger-based warehouse export, OpenAPI, webhooks, developer documentation and a services team building custom connectors. We found no public information on SSO, SCIM provisioning, documented rate limits or a sandbox, so it sits solidly above the mid anchor but below the top. 7
European sovereignty
panel opinion
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Where the ticket archive lives, who the contracting entity is, which subprocessors touch it, and whether vendor support can read customer data. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; scored here as this buyer weighs it.
0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated or non-EU, subprocessors unnamed.
3 — EU hosting offered as an option while the contracting entity is non-EU, or the subprocessor list is absent.
5 — EU hosting as standard and an EU contracting entity, but parts of the chain — support tooling, analytics, AI features — are non-EU without an explained safeguard.
8 — EU or DACH hosting with a named data-centre provider, EU contracting entity, full subprocessor list published, and any non-EU processing named with its legal basis.
10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: vendor, entity, hosting and every subprocessor in the EU, certification published, and a self-hosted or private-cloud option for buyers who need the archive on their own infrastructure.
The Support Lead
LeadDesk Plc contracts from Helsinki with a German company in Berlin, processing stated as primarily within the EU/EEA with all data stored in the EU, a Finnish lead supervisory authority, and independent audit claims — the right shape for a European buyer. We found no published subprocessor list, no named data-centre provider, and no information on where the AI chatbot's processing happens, so I cannot see the whole chain my customers' data travels. 2 3 4
The Agent Advocate
The contracting entity is LeadDesk Plc in Helsinki with a German subsidiary in Berlin, and the vendor's pages state all data is stored in the EU with SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certification claimed, though the independently computed residency attribute is left unconfirmed. No data-centre provider is named and we found no public subprocessor list, so the chain is asserted rather than evidenced. 2 3 5
The Data Protection Officer
The vendor's own pages state that all data is stored in the EU and processed primarily within the EU/EEA, with a Finnish contracting entity answerable to the Finnish supervisory authority and a German subsidiary in Berlin. The independently sourced attributes leave residency, ownership and subprocessor exposure unknown, I found no published subprocessor list and no named data-centre provider, and nothing on whether vendor support can read customer data. 2 3 4 5
The Shop Operator
LeadDesk Plc is a Finnish company headquartered in Helsinki with a Berlin subsidiary, its own pages state all data is stored in the EU and processed primarily within the EU/EEA, and it carries SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certification. The independently sourced sovereignty attributes could not confirm residency or subprocessors, and I found no published subprocessor list and no named data-centre provider, so the chain rests on the vendor's own statements. 2 3 4 5
The Integrator
The contracting entity is LeadDesk Plc in Helsinki with a Berlin GmbH on the German pages, the lead supervisory authority is the Finnish ombudsman, and the vendor's own pages state all data is stored in the EU and processed primarily within the EU/EEA, with transfer mechanisms named for anything outside. We found no public information on a published subprocessor list, a named data-centre provider, or vendor ownership, which is what keeps this from moving higher for me. 2 3 4 5
The Skeptic
LeadDesk Plc is named with a Helsinki business ID, a Berlin GmbH appears for German customers, and the captured pages state that all data is stored in the EU, with transfers outside the EEA covered by named safeguards such as standard contractual clauses and transfer impact assessments. We found no published subprocessor list and no named data-centre provider, and the independent check flags residency as unconfirmed on the vendor's own pages, so I stop at the middle. 2 3 5
Pricing transparency
not rated — the vendor publishes no price
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether a support lead can compute the real annual invoice for their agent count — including the channels and features they actually need — from public pages alone.
0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.
3 — A per-agent headline exists, but the tier where the needed channel or SLA feature begins is unstated, or light-agent and contact limits are not mentioned.
5 — Per-agent prices public for the main tiers with billing period stated, but at least one commonly needed capability (telephony, messengers, SLA policies) sits in an unpriced bundle.
8 — Every tier and add-on priced publicly with per-agent maths, billing period, minimum term and VAT treatment stated; only genuinely custom enterprise work lacks a number.
10 — Complete price computability: a calculator or table producing the annual invoice for a given agent count and channel selection, including usage-metered channels and overage.
The Support Lead
No public prices on any page we captured — no per-agent figure, no tiers, no billing period, nothing I can put in a budget line. The only commercial step shown is filling in your details so an account manager can organise a personalised demo, which makes every price a sales conversation. I cannot compute an annual invoice for twelve agents from public pages alone. 1
The Agent Advocate
No public prices at all in what I was shown: the buying path is a form and an account manager's call for a personalised demo. A support lead cannot compute even a rough annual invoice for their agent count from these pages. 1
The Data Protection Officer
I found no public prices at all — no per-agent figure, no tiers, no add-on prices — and the captured pages point to a personalised demo through an account manager. A support lead cannot compute any part of the annual invoice from what is published. 1
The Shop Operator
I found no public prices at all — no per-agent figure, no tiers, no add-on pricing — and the captured route to buying is a personalised demo where an account manager reaches out. A support lead cannot compute any part of the annual invoice for their agent count from what is public. 1
The Integrator
No price appears on any captured page — not per-agent, not per-tier, not per-channel — and the published route to the product is a personalised demo arranged through an account manager. A support lead cannot compute any part of the annual invoice from public pages. 1
The Skeptic
We found no public prices anywhere in the captured pages — no per-agent figure, no tiers, no billing period for any of the four modules. The only published path is a form after which an account manager reaches out, so a support lead cannot compute even a rough annual invoice from these pages alone. 1

Questions about LeadDesk
Is LeadDesk European?
Not determined: the vendor’s pages as captured do not say where LeadDesk is based.
Where does LeadDesk store data?
Not stated on the vendor’s pages as of 27 Oct 2026.
Does LeadDesk have a free plan?
Not stated on the vendor’s pages as of 27 Oct 2026.
What are the best alternatives to LeadDesk?
As of 27 Oct 2026, the panel rates Zendesk (3.5/5), HubSpot Service Hub (3/5) and Crisp (3/5) highest among the other 32 Customer Service & Helpdesk products evaluated. Ratings that look equal are rounded to half stars; the order uses the unrounded rating, then the name. The highest-rated European alternative is Zammad (EU-Made). Ratings are the AI panel’s opinion, formed from public evidence: how scores are made. The full list, with European products first: LeadDesk alternatives.
Where this could be wrong
- Evidence ages. The oldest capture behind this page is from 27 Oct 2026. Vendors change pricing and policies without notice; every fact reflects its source as of the capture date shown in the registry.
- Weak sourcing — Data residency. Not confirmed on the vendor’s own pages as captured.
- AI can misread a source. Extraction and judgement are automated; a citation guarantees traceability, not infallibility. If something here is wrong, say so — no account needed, every report is decided within 5 business days, and accepted corrections are published.
What we left out
A claim that does not survive our checks costs us the claim, not the page. This is what was taken off this one.
