Chose Ivanti Neurons for ITSM
Ivanti is far more user friendly than ManageEngine, and has more features than Jira Service Management. It takes longer to get used to Ivanti because of the extra features, but once you're on board with how it works and how to make changes, the possibilities and configuration …
From what I've seen of ServiceNow, Ivanti Service Manager seems to be easier to configure for smaller teams. In addition, the expense necessary to fully build-out a ServiceNow system was much larger. Both systems follow ITIL framework recommendations quite closely, which was …
Both products are very capable players in the Enterprise Service Management space, providing custom and secure environments which make it easy for multiple lines of business to co-exist on one common platform, with Ivanti Service Manager providing a more flexible concurrent …
There is no comparison. Ivanti Neurons for ITSM (Ivanti Service Manager) outperforms them all. ServiceNow looks great on the surface and has amazing marketing, however you need deep pockets and a very long implementation cycle. BMC's Track-It and Remedy are near end of life. …
I am not in the position to evaluate the competitors, that happened with people above me in the organization. Before this we used custom programs and were reliant upon developers.
During our RFP and RFI, we were able to review Ivanti Service Manager (powered by Heat) against other companies to see the capabilities and cost structure they offered. Hands down, Ivanti Service Manager (powered by Heat) was an overwhelming success. Having the ability to use …
There is no comparison. ISM's customization and scale-ability run circles around both software previously used. Additionally, the implementation of a user portal available outside of a local network provides on the run support for those users who do not work in a traditional …
Ivanti Service Manager really takes the idea of customizing the space - fully - to meet your individual needs to a new level. The system comes pre-built with a lot of useful workspaces and functionality, with the ability to fully customize everything from the look/feel to the …
We went with the HEAT Service Management Product because we already had HEAT Voice in-house, and the advantages of integration were inherent with it. We were offered alternatives to evaluate but opted to remain under the HEAT/Ivanti umbrella because of this integration …
Most recently, BMC Remedy, ServiceNow. Remedy seems to be the most established and ServiceNow is even more complicated than ITSM. We operated but did not select ITSM, so there was no choice at the time.

Chose SysAid
Sysaid is a more streamlined overall process than Zendesk.
I find SysAid system much better than the Spiceworks cloud version in that you can actually customize it to your company needs. Spiceworks is a great free system, but limited by lack of customizations
The value of SysAid just seemed to be much better than Kaseya. The review was relatively short with Kaseya, but I immediately liked what SysAid offered. The overall capability compared to the costs associated with SysAid made it a great choice.
SysAid is very cost-effective and flexible and integrates ITSM and asset management tools in one platform, reducing the need for separate tools. They have an intuitive interface that ensures a smooth user experience, reducing the learning curve for IT teams. SysAid offers …
There are many items offered on the other platforms that SysAid does not have. However, for a smaller or medium-sized business that needs a simple and easy way to get tickets flowing and allow users to help themselves, this is an excellent way to start.
ServiceNow is a very clean-looking portal and one of the primary IT asset management softwares. SysAid was originally onboarded by another project manager, but the selection came from a much lower cost than other ITSM software. In the future, interface/GUI will be a large part …
SysAid is a decent ITSM based product for the money if you want an application that for the most part can be setup and administered without a dedicated resource assigned to SysAid maintenance.
In my experience, it does not have the full functionality of either Cherwell or …
ServiceNow is lightyears ahead of SysAid. They efficiently use workflows to get everything set up in the system. One prime example is the onboarding and offboarding of employees. You can set up individual approval tasks to add/remove employees from systems. These tasks will …
SysAid offers both cloud and on-premise delivery models, plus different ITSM capabilities and pricing levels from a basic ticketing system, through the help desk, to IT service management software.
The Spiceworks cloud helpdesk is a good, free alternative to paid helpdesk options. However, because it's free it's limited in functionality. We chose SysAid as it has all the features we desired such as strong change control, and more extras such as the remote support function …
Jira work management needs a difficult customization part. Jira is also a large scale tool. This tool is more complex. It requires more business understanding. SysAid is beginners friendly. Hence we have opted for this tool. For tools like Jira we need a scrum master to …
Better support than open source solutions. It provides a better overall design to get an overview of the whole IT system. To configure redmine you need some programming knowledge or search for plugins and solutions on forums. Sydaid has a proper helpdesk which you can contact …
SysAid, compared to other helpdesk software, was reasonably cost-effective; they provided seamless integrations and were willing to redesign the software to meet our needs. One of their current features that is winning with my organization is the SysAid bot. This is a great …
It's a great system for anyone between wanting something that's just plug-n-play that works out of the box, or someone who wants to shape it to make it their own, and do things their way. It's easy to build your processes into the system, or you can just run with how it's been preconfigured. One of it's limited features is document management. While the system will allow you to upload documents to a record, it's purely storage. It's not suitable for processes that require document processing functionality.
SysAid is Great for IT Support. Tickets can be easily entered using the portal that has a more modern look and feel. We have also used SysAid for our Customer Service Team. Tickets can come in through email or direct access through the cloud. They no longer get lost in the shuffle. Reports can be produced for the managers to better undersand where issues are.
Ease of use for end users creating tickets from their own Self-Service Portal (which is tied into Windows Active Directory so no login is needed).
Ease of use and management of tickets by the IT staff.
Flexibility. We currently have IT teams associated with a single program, a single department, and all other IT items. SysAid allows us to easily manage this, add to it, change it, etc.
Support - SysAid support has remained consistently great throughout the years that we have had the product. That is a fairly rare thing for hosted solutions these days.
Expandability. We have a lot more that we can still do with the product and are working on expanding what it can do as we move forward in time. There is a lot to this product overall.
Because through SYSAID is how the operation of all IT is carried out and in this way the performance indicators of the services, systems, operation, trends, workloads, project control and their deviations are known; as well as the requests for changes and requirements that are requested by both users and that is where the system improvement projects are triggered, such as change controls, which by the way are audit topics.
You will need a certified partner to make sure you are configured to meet the needs of your organization. If you use it as is/turnkey then Ivanti Service Manager (powered by Heat) will begin to be more of a clunky product.
It is a very simple tool to use, the training required to implement it is minimal and it is also very simple for end users. There is a quick guide to configure and it was the only thing we used to configure the tool. The response of the users was good to the implementation because they did not feel that it was a big change that complicated the request of tasks by the IT department.
Another of the benefits of sysaid is that it is highly available when working in on-premise environments.The only times the system is down is when a restart of the services is required to add a new feature. Apart from that, we have not had any problems.In the case of the cloud, the only condition I have seen where sysaid is not available is because the internet link is down or damaged.
In the case of system performance, I have seen that no matter the number of assets and users, Sysaid responds in the same way and at the same speed. The reports that are scheduled do not have any details because they arrive directly to your email. In the same way, when it is integrated with other systems, for example through the API or by email, we have not seen any failure due to the integration. It works very well with or without integrations.
Initial response is usually fast, but solving issues takes longer than expected and most of the times it is not clear what exactly the issue is and when it is going to be solved. It would be helpful to know if there are already complaints by other customers regarding new issues, so that we know that we are not alone and that Ivanti support is already aware of the problems.
I have had nothing but positive experiences working with the SysAid support team. There are multiple pathways to request and receive support, which are all connected with each other. I get an efficient and effective response most of the time and when there is not immediately a good answer, they create a support request to follow up for resolution.
My team was greatly assisted and trained well. Despite the time zone difference the trainer made every effort to be available during times that were suitable for us and the assistance and help offered was extremely appreciated by my team. A wonderful experience by the team.
The training I received was very good, they gave me tasks to carry out and then they checked what I had done.It was gratifying that the instructor noticed that I had made very fast progress because I had done the implementation myself and it was very fast. At least I remember that after 5 days I had already finished almost 90% of all the implementation tasks.
In the initial stage we implement separate SysAid servers for head and branch offices. When we managed to link up our offices via point to point VPN, we manage to console them into one server. All the assets and devices on branch office were divert back to the server in head office
From what I've seen of ServiceNow, Ivanti Service Manager seems to be easier to configure for smaller teams. In addition, the expense necessary to fully build-out a ServiceNow system was much larger. Both systems follow ITIL framework recommendations quite closely, which was a major feature we were looking for in a Service Management system.
The value of SysAid just seemed to be much better than Kaseya. The review was relatively short with Kaseya, but I immediately liked what SysAid offered. The overall capability compared to the costs associated with SysAid made it a great choice.
Le doy esta calificación porque los módulos que contiene se pueden usar para casi cualquier departamento, tanto gestión de tickets como inventarios de equipos, hemos utilizado una versión gratuita en Ingeniería para gestionar sus tiempos en las tareas asignadas, es lo único que utilizan pero podrían usar fácilmente el módulo de inventario para su herramienta y el módulo de proyectos también
Our instance has introduced integration of HEAT Voice and HEAT CRM to our contact center, which has resulted in reporting efficiencies in our group.
The product has allowed an in-house team to administer the product and support it rather than rely on our IT Organization for basic reporting and administrative needs ($$ savings)
A browser-based application has eliminated the time expended on installing the product for newer users.
