Pros
"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution.""It is easy to set up.""The solution is easy to use and has a user-friendly interface""The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten.""I like Cloud Neurons. Since it's a cloud version, it's much easier to enhance productivity because it collects all the information automatically.""Overall, the platform, in its abilities, is really powerful, especially now with AI as a part of hyper-automation.""Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation.""It is relatively cost-effective compared to other options like ServiceNow. Additionally, it is highly stable."

"The product offers very good management. It has a great ability to assign tickets based on content.""It's very convenient to use.""It is a scalable solution.""Zendesk Support has a lot of good APIs.""It has good management, the ability to sign tickets based on content, the multi-channel support, the self service portal, the integration with Salesforce, the setup process, and the product features as we are currently using them.""We rarely had issues with Zendesk.""I found the user experience with vendors on Zendesk to be straightforward, especially when it comes to understanding and searching for specific tickets. The search and navigation tools are easy to use, and I haven't encountered any issues with delays or communication gaps in ticket resolutions.""It is very easy to connect back and forth between the requester and the person fulfilling the ticket."

Cons
"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor.""There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond.""Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow.""Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes.""Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control.""Support needs improvement in terms of responsiveness and timeliness.""There's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved.""We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."

More Ivanti Neurons for ITSM Cons →

"You couldn't give administrative access to new hires.""Zendesk Guide's customization could be improved. I would like it to be easier and maybe open-sourced, so that if you have a developer in your company, you can do it yourself. Right now, that isn't allowed, so you need to have it done via the integrator. Another improvement—this is nit-picking—is that it could be less easy to make changes. Some things are so easy that they sometimes look a little amateur-ish. Most of the templates are built-in so they can be used directly, so they are very simple.""The price of the solution should be reduced.""The data you get when logged in to Zendesk Support differs from the data you get when you programmatically query Zendesk Support through its API because of a sync time delay.""If I write an article, and I have a team of 30 people, and they all have a Zendesk account, when I write an article, I send them an email. "Hey guys, I just wrote this article. It's one of the most popular topics this month on which we are not covered. Please check it and make sure that you include it in your resolutions". The issue is, once I send it to those 30 people, and they open it, the next morning, that article is the most popular article.""As per me, there arent much significant issues or areas for improvement with Zendesk, as my usage of it is limited. I appreciate its ability to organize tickets effectively based on tags, allowing me to easily gather and analyze customer feedback and requests.""It wasn't easy to set up so we're only using a third of all of the features,""The solution could integrate better with QR codes from some websites such as Facebook."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "If you want to add more users who can handle support there will be additional fees. What we call our extensions, we need to pay more for. They tell us that we need to acquire more licenses or something like that. I think it's very expensive, because in terms the pula, our local currency, it's about 20,000 per license for each user. It is an annual fee."
  • "I came to know from my team members that my company used to operate ServiceNow but shifted to Ivanti Neurons for ITSM due to its low licensing prices."
  • "The product is affordable for small businesses."
  • "The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
  • More Ivanti Neurons for ITSM Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "We pay for the solution on a yearly basis and my understanding is that the cost is about $30,000. That's the cost for 24 to 25 agents."
  • "The price is very competitive."
  • "Zendesk's licensing is not cheap. For Enterprise, we are paying $200 per agent. It's a per-month cost, so it's pretty steep. There are some services you need to pay extra for. For example, with Zendesk Guide, we had to buy the most expensive offering in order to get Multibrand and everything. We also had to pay a lot of money for themes."
  • "There are different plans that are offered. We are using the entry-level plan. The overall price of the solution should be reduced. The price is too high."
  • "You have to pay extra for better support. So it's not only the license that you pay for, but you have to pay extra for the support as well."
