You can not beat [Combodo iTop] community edition in terms of features. It is a great piece of software that has its place for any company that needs to get a helpdesk up and a budget is a big concern.
JitBit just had the feature set at the cost point we were willing to spend. Nothing against the other products, but this one just fit our model better.
We've looked at several different Help Desk solutions, but the names escape me at the moment. We looked at Spiceworks and didn't find it to be bad but we didn't like the ads. There is a purchase version for about $500/year, but we still decided against it--I can't recall why. …
JitBit is great. The price is great. The support is great. You can feel that it's growing in the right direction.
JitBit is one of those tools that I mention in converstaion. There's lots of systems that I hate talking about because you just think of the headaches, regret, and …
I think that it is very well suited for smaller companies who want a help desk stack with a monitoring integration like Zabbix for a completely open-source stack. I do not think that it is particularly well suited for large organizations where more robust helpdesks are available. ServiceNow may be a better option for a larger organization.
Helps to create a continuous conversation between our team and the user. It was clean and easy to understand, training was less than a day for most newbies. Your Devs, Sales, Marketing Support, Management can all use one hub to talk to your users and gather feedback. Helped us expand our teams and realize what directions we needed to expand in. Support supports, Sales sells, Marketing markets... It's like a beautiful dance! It's hard to say that JitBit is right for you, but I can't imagine the industry that JitBit wouldn't work in. You put it in front of an employee, and they know what to do next.
JitBit HelpDesk is not free. There is no free version. It would be nice if they had a free, limited version that would allow 100 tickets to get used to it before buying as it is pretty expensive, even for the lowest end implementation.
I wish it were easy to integrate forms into. I've seen numerous questions around the Net about integrating Google Forms or creating forms.
There is a strong push from JitBit to use the cloud version but some companies really have to use an on-premise solution.
Each member of [the] IT team members can define their control screens with the information that is relevant to them. The lifecycle of the tickets or the list of tasks to perform for the achievement of a process can be set to fit each organization. Gives users a simple way to formulate intervention requests and to follow progress.
We've looked at several different Help Desk solutions, but the names escape me at the moment. We looked at Spiceworks and didn't find it to be bad but we didn't like the ads. There is a purchase version for about $500/year, but we still decided against it--I can't recall why. JitBit's reviews and history are both very good. And if two years worth of no issues is any indication of how well it works, then that alone speaks for itself. I have used other Help Desk applications over the past 20 years and none are perfect, but a hassle-free experience gets a gold star from me.
