Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies.""The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy.""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.""It is easy to set up.""The integrations are quite simple and clear.""The solution is easy to use and has a user-friendly interface""Overall, the platform, in its abilities, is really powerful, especially now with AI as a part of hyper-automation.""It is relatively cost-effective compared to other options like ServiceNow. Additionally, it is highly stable."

"It tracks everything that the technicians are doing. We can account for time and manage resources.""It's really customizable. It's very user-friendly to change very quickly. We've developed lots of custom forms and things, without any need for thousands of accounting consultants which was one of our main aims of it.""The service desk orchestration, overall, is good. It allows an organization to build that service desk concept into its organizational and support strategy. And it allows an organization to digest that and create a support model very quickly around the tools. The fact that the tools are integrated within the system itself gives the organization a really robust way to integrate everything and have a complete support model.""The service desk automation and orchestration are very good. We are implementing it at the moment. We implemented it for two of our applications already for our CRM. Whenever there's a change in the CRM, it will automate them into SysAid as well. We have two workflows from our CRM into SysAid, which is very helpful. Overall, we're very happy with the workflow.""The SysAid team provided excellent service to implement the solution for us. From the very first day, we received a comp manager, and a project manager, to implement the product. They continued to inquire about our business needs and then finalized the best path for us.""SysAid is more user-friendly, and its configuration is easier than other tools.""The solution provides us with multi-layered service management along with all our support pieces integrated in one system. Our entire system is run on SysAid, from Tier 1 to Tier 3. All the other IT department functionality is captured in SysAid, like development, warehousing, and application. So, it has vertical and horizontal coverage.""All our service management is integrated into one system. Our response time is much faster because we have a visual into what is going on."

Cons
"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.""There's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved.""Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes.""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.""There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond.""The user interface must be made simpler and more effective.""Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow."

"Some of the back-end configurations of the solution are very difficult. So, we always need SysAid's help.""One of the features that I'm hoping comes at some point is that currently you can only have one Knowledge Base instance within it. For me, it would be beneficial to have multiple instances for different purposes. I'd like to have a completely separate one for customers and the only way I can achieve that right now, where I can tag articles to only be viewed by customers, would be if I use its portal function.""Currently, SysAid does not have a mobile application.""So far, we're very happy with the new integration. The only thing that I would like to see is for them to improve asset management so that it's more usable. We looked at it once and we didn't find it quite usable for us. That's why we didn't use it. We haven't looked into the new one yet but the asset management is something that can be improved even more and patch management is not as good as it could be.""There is a learning curve for the users.""The administrative side of the user interface could be a little more user-friendly. It is easier for me to export our reports into Excel, then do a server retrieval and get the information. Whereas, to do a report, you have to go through a configuration type of process, which is kind of difficult and complicated. I have been using this solution for two years now and I still haven't gotten the hang of the reports.""SysAid has fewer AI features compared to other tools.""Monitoring needs improvement. At the moment we are looking for some advanced monitoring tools, which are using AI and machine learning as well. This product currently does not offer that."

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."

  • "The pricing of SysAid is less than its competitors."
  • "Overall, the price is good. It's all about what you get for the base amount. From my perspective, you want to look at what you're getting out-of-the-box. SysAid does a good job of putting key stuff in the box for you."
  • "Once you're interested, talk with SysAid. You can have them come in and look at your company and advise you on the best solution. They will tell you what comes with each separate package and also advise you what application to activate. If you want something that they don't have, they have a department that can design something based on your unique requests."
  • "SysAid is a good solution, especially from a pricing perspective."
  • "We saw our investment back at the end of year one."
  • "Though I am not really sure about SysAid's prices, I know that it is competitive compared to some of the other products that our company looked at, like ConnectWise and ServiceNow."
