Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"All the features of ConnectWise Manage are valuable. However, ticketing, customer management, customer communication, technician efficiency, calendars, coding, billing, invoicing, and contract management are available. It's a complete solution. Additionally, the company is responsive with the ability to progress or make necessary changes happen.""It's a nice ticketing system.""We like the way that ConnectWise is completely integrated. So you when you identify an opportunity, you can save it, and ConnectWise pushes it through to the whole invoicing process.""I like the search function up top where if you know what you're searching for, you can find it pretty quickly. Because you've got the option to change what the search parameters are, whether you're searching for a project, quote, ticket, or an invoice, you can kind of pick and choose what you're looking for.""The product has been pretty stable so far.""The most valuable feature is the management of projects from start to finish.""Contains every feature that a VAR or MSP would want.""The ease of reporting is valuable. We have a weekly management meeting, and we gather numbers from ConnectWise in preparation for that. It is helpful for measuring how we're doing in our performance."

"I like Cloud Neurons. Since it's a cloud version, it's much easier to enhance productivity because it collects all the information automatically.""The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy.""Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation.""Overall, the platform, in its abilities, is really powerful, especially now with AI as a part of hyper-automation.""The main feature for us is incident management, as it assists me in knowing my assignments, because we have group assignments. When we go to the group assignment they can assign it to me there.""The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten.""This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies.""The integrations are quite simple and clear."

Cons
"A lot of times, it'll take a couple of moments for things to go through. If you're not patient about it, it may seem like things aren't working.""The tracking inventory or the way it tracks the products is not very good.""Sometimes it is a little bit slow, which is the only complaint I have about it.""The custom reporting needs to be improved.""All other ticket systems can search previous tickets, whether they were homegrown in Oracle or something else. I'm talking about searching the actual contents of the discussions in the ticket. In ConnectWise, you can only search the summaries. It's ridiculous.""It needs to be easier to share tickets between users who need to work together.""There should be some improvements to the interface. It is not completely intuitive. When you click in a blank area of a screen, you'll find some options.""Their reporting options aren't great. BrightGauge was something that we added on, and that enhanced the experience."

More ConnectWise PSA Cons →

"Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control.""Sometimes I can't get the reports that I want until I go to the manager. They need to put more into the new reports. The standard reports are great, but there do not communicate as much.""The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor.""The user interface must be made simpler and more effective.""There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond.""We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds.""Support needs improvement in terms of responsiveness and timeliness.""I have had to open a few support tickets with the HEAT Service Management. They are very good but there are some areas that they could improve on."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "There are some different add-ons and benefits that are optional and come at an additional cost."
  • "The cost can be the main barrier. It's not a solution for a three person company. It just isn't going to be cost effective. Because ConnectWise Manage does have everything there, the licensing is a little bit restrictive as far as how they want to granularly assign licenses rather than having more of an all-inclusive package."
  • "We're paying $940 a month for 14 users."
  • "The pricing of ConnectWise Manage is reasonable."
  • "I have one monthly license for all of the ConnectWise products I use, and it's $85 per user."
  • More ConnectWise PSA 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."
