"The most valuable feature of TOPdesk is the reports.""This solution has provided me with a well-defined process and interaction, compared to my previous tool, GLPI.""When it comes to implementing new features, they listen to what their customers want via a suggestion forum that they have.""Change management is the most critical feature.""It is an easy-to-use solution.""Its ITSM approach is quite useful.""The most valuable feature of this solution is the incident management module.""The most valuable feature of TOPdesk is its ease of use if you have implemented it in the right way. If you're not implementing it in the right way, then it's very difficult."

Cons
"The reporting needs to be improved.""The product should improve its ability to integrate with third-party tools.""We had issues with the user interface, the way it was structured wasn't that user-friendly. The chat features could improve. For example, in change management, all the chat discussions can be done via ServiceNow. We are using two separate solutions, such as Teams, to chat, and the Alemba vFire tool to process."

More Alemba vFire Cons →

"Change management implementation, facility management, and making reservations on assets can be improved.""If I open a ticket on the infrastructure team, I can't move it to the financial team for them to manage the ticket.""The solution's change management could be better.""All companies have processes that need to be adjusted. When you have a change, you need to name it, and many companies have a set of changes you can use. It would be helpful if there were more space in TOPdesk to name the change or use metadata to record the kinds of changes.""This solution is modular so you only buy what you need, but I prefer what some companies are doing where they include everything in the package.""One of the disadvantages of TOPdesk is the reporting tool. It is very poor and not in real-time. You do not always receive the correct information.""An operator is also a user but requires creating two different records.""It is time-consuming to add new users."

  • "Compared to other products in this segment, I think that they are priced well and not too expensive."
  • "There are three fee options to choose from for a company and these options compared to market prices are very high. For example, if I use one of the first options for 10 assets, then it costs 20,000 Euros. If you went to competitors, then you pay less."
