    Considered Both Products
    Freshworks Inc
    Chose Freshservice
    Freshservice offers way more tools, much better support and has a very clean and more modern interface compared to SysAid

    Chose Freshservice
    Freshservice provides a more modern user interface than either of the two former products we used. It provides a broader range of tools and features than Jitbit. It is much easier to use than SysAid. The user interface for our end-users is crisp, clean, informative, and easy …

    Chose SysAid
    Sysaid includes more features in the baseline product. Multilanguage (English, spanish, portuguesse, etc). It's highly customizable and ITIL aligned.
    Incentivized
    Chose SysAid
    SysAid was selected mainly for its flexibility with configurations, adaptability to internal processes of various companies that propose constant and gradual changes in order to align with ITSM strategies, support and documentation, and integrations with other platforms.
