SysAid

Vorteile

SysAid's user-friendly interface and real-time chat feature make it easy to manage IT support tasks and provide immediate assistance to users.

Nachteile

The self-service portal could use a design update, and the change management process is not as intuitive as it could be.

Freshdesk

Warum SysAid gewählt wurde

We switched from ServiceNow to SysAid primarily due to the cost. SysAid provided a more affordable solution with the essential features we needed, making it a better fit for our budget while still delivering robust IT support capabilities.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu SysAid

We chose SysAid because it offered the best balance of features, ease of use, and affordability. While ServiceNow was too complex and costly, and Freshdesk lacked some advanced ITSM features we needed, SysAid provided all the essential tools at a reasonable price, making it the ideal choice for our organization.

Vorteile

What I liked most about SysAid is its strong capabilities in asset management and workflows, particularly how it effectively tracks and manages IT assets by linking Configuration Items (CIs) together. Additionally, the automated workflows for purchase requisitions and work order transitions are highly efficient, allowing tasks to flow seamlessly between team members.

Nachteile

What I liked least about SysAid is the user interface (UI), especially within the workflows and Admin Portal, which lacks simplicity and could benefit from a more intuitive design. Additionally, the Self-Service Portal has had recurring issues, particularly with the password reset function not working as intended.

Vorteile

I like that you can make quick keys for EU's to access Web-Portal. I like the customization of tickets, assets and EU portals (once you can figure them out). I love the Language Configuration Text file you can use to make it totally your own. LDAP integration is a total dream come true.

Nachteile

Customer service is HORRID! To the point of complaints have to go to CEO of SysAid and had to have HER get on the phone with us. Mobile apps for Android and Now iOS are broken or severely limited functionality and VERY outdated compared to other ITSM's apps. RDS never works correctly. Assets have never fully populated, even though all our systems have agents and services enabled correctly. SNMP devices are atrocious to get to populate and forget monitoring... You have to have a degree in Theoretical Physics near to find the OID's and a dedicated systems analyst to research them and keep them updated.

Dashboard has disappeared and can't get it to return, let alone ever work. The entire interface is clunky and looks like it was written when XP was in it's prime. WMI Scans are pointless as you can't do anything with the results of those found devices. Small to Medium business would be better off with Spiceworks IMHO.

Vorteile

I most appreciate SysAid’s automated ticket routing and prioritization, which streamline our support processes and ensure efficient handling of requests. The comprehensive self-service portal also stands out for empowering users to solve common issues independently.

Nachteile

I liked least SysAid’s limited customization options, which restrict how we can tailor the platform to fit specific organizational needs. Additionally, the complexity involved in integrating SysAid with other systems often requires significant effort and additional support.
