What should I look for when switching from mHelpDesk?

When switching, audit four things: data export support (can you take your customer list with you?), integration parity (will your QuickBooks/Stripe/Zapier setup still work?), pricing changes at your team size (per-user vs. per-company structures change the math), and implementation cost (most enterprise tools charge for migration).
