SympoQ is a free online ticket management system for customer support. In the free plan, it gives you 100 tickets and 1000 actions. It lets you create a support page and then you can share that on your website. A user can open a ticket, describe his problem, attach file, and send it to you. And then you can start managing the problem in a thread and proceed with the conversation. When the problem solves, a user can close the ticket or the admin on the other end can close that.
