We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution's business process flow is quite strong. Its reporting is quite good. The standard, basic ITSM functionality like call logging and call flow, for example, are areas the solution really excels in."

"The best feature is that SLAs are automatically tracked, so when we breach something, we can set up email escalations as well.""Incident management and service request management features are the most valuable.""Incident management is a valuable feature.""It is highly configurable with PinkVERIFY status.""The initial setup was quite simple; installing just took a few minutes.""Ivanti offers us the flexibility to transform it from purely an internal IT tool to something we can use across multiple departments. There's now a queue of departments waiting to onboard and get their processes built. The flexibility within the workflow is excellent.""The tool supports a lot of standard reporting KPIs.""The most valuable features of the Ivanti Service Desk are service requests and incident management."

Cons
"It's worked well for us for a significant period of time. However, we are kind-of outgrowing it at the moment. We're struggling a bit with making it meet our requirements."

More Hornbill Systems Supportworks Cons →

"You have limited ability to customize how Ivanti renders. It's a fairly strict design that doesn't offer you much freedom to alter the rigid, two-column layout on the screen. You can choose between one column or two, but that's about it. The presentation is probably the biggest weakness.""The documentation for migration which includes migration from one version to another or cloud to on-premises is not available in detail. There is no proper planning on metadata updates. I am not able to do the data movement with the package push.""You must be very technical to configure it.""Ivanti Service Desk could improve the GUI because it is not as good as other solutions, such as BMC or ServiceNow. If Ivanti Service Desk works on the GUI and makes it more user-friendly, and its content more attractive it might help the solution in the long run.""The mobile service is minimal and doesn't provide sufficient capabilities.""The interface can be improved. It can be made more interactive for self-service users.""The administrative side of it could be a little more intuitive. This is the side that you use to do customizations. It is very customizable, but it could be a bit more intuitive and user-friendly. Their support can also be better in terms of response time. Currently, their response time is a little slow.""When we need to implement changes, it usually takes two to three days to happen, making it a very time-consuming process."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Our organization pays about $40,000 annually. There are ongoing consultancy costs and if we want to change anything, we're charged a day rate. Other than that, there are no other extra costs involved in working with the solution."
