Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It has allowed us to be more efficient in our problem and change management processes and procedures.""Logging every action in Service Desk Manager (SDM).""The database and the power that is driven behind the database.""The initial setup is pretty straightforward.""The value for the clients is that you can save information in the application and get reports with that information.""The tool itself is valuable as a result of all its features combined. Therefore, I have found that there is no feature more valuable than another.""It helps when you have an incident or performing a problem change management process.""Clarity is flexible to implement and integrate. It gives the developer or consultant a broad space to work and customize based on what the customers want."

More Serviceaide ChangeGear Pros →

Cons
"One area that this product can improve is in the mobile user aspect.""We would like the CMDB to be populated automatically. At the moment, everything is manually created.""We would like to see them integrate more of a service catalog, which is more of an Amazon-type fill in your bucket, then sign in, once you decide what you want.""If I had to choose, it would be more around the user interface than the mobile experience.""Report solutions are a little short.""We just upgraded about a year and half ago and it was painful. We had the testing of the dev environment, and then testing of the production environment, so it was two weekends out of my life. And stuff broke.""​Compared to some of the other products, I think we are bit behind​.​""On permissions, there are options to do groups and options to do roles. What is practical, you have to pick one or the other, for both read and write permissions."
