We performed a comparison between Ivanti Neurons for ITSM and Zendesk based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Help Desk Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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 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."
"This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies."
"The integrations are quite simple and clear."
"I like Cloud Neurons. Since it's a cloud version, it's much easier to enhance productivity because it collects all the information automatically."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Its agility and simplicity are the most valuable features. This tool is very user-friendly."
"We rarely had issues with Zendesk."
"The most valuable features of Zendesk Support are collaboration, reports, and a self-service portal. The customer and team can see all the information needed from the portal."
"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."
"One of the most valuable features is that Zendesk gives you a lot of configurability, and a lot of leeway in terms of customizing the look and theme. Zendesk offers you the facility to design your own landing page, as well as the look and feel of the entire knowledge base. At the same time, they offer themes that you can simply purchase and implement. Either way, it can really be turned into the right look and feel of the knowledge base required by our company, which is very important—if you have a bland-looking page, most of the time, people will lose interest. Zendesk also allows you to test the customizations before you publish it. It gives you a sandbox location where you can test everything new that you're trying to create and publish, which is very interesting."
"The product offers very good management. It has a great ability to assign tickets based on content."
"The feature to move over my customer experience team tickets for different specialists is very valuable for my team."
"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM's support model is not very strong. You should buy professional services. Its self-service portal and survey are extremely lacking. You cannot customize it, and it doesn't look very good. The solution does not have a strong community."
"Support needs improvement in terms of responsiveness and timeliness."
"There's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved."
"Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control."
"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor."
"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."
"The price of the solution should be reduced."
"The dashboard could be better."
"The support team is time-consuming, and they don't find the answer to our problem."
"The solution itself wasn't easy to set up."
"It wasn't easy to set up so we're only using a third of all of the features,"
"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."
"One of the drawbacks of Zendesk is that it doesn't provide a secure way for us to send data. So, we usually use a secure SharePoint folder link. We put that in the Zendesk ticket so that the requester has a secure way of getting to their data."
"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."
