Our customer service and productivity have increased in quality and quantity since using this product
Agiloft has a great support team to help the process along. They are affordable, friendly, and knowledgeable. The tech support team acts like walking encyclopedias. They know databases and programming. After all these years, we hardly need to speak to Agiloft anymore. However, they have great customer support. Every time we need something from them, they make our small troubles go away quickly.

Good reporting and easy to use but needs to offer better integration capabilities
The product offers quite limited memory. That needs to be expanded. They need to make it possible to more easily customize the user interface. The product could offer better integration capabilities. Right now, we are trying to integrate some on-prem solutions to Remedyforce. We're having some problems doing that right now. Due to the fact that the solution must be accessed through the internet, if your internet is not good, you'll have trouble accessing the product. It would be ideal if there was an on-premises option. Technical support can only be reached via email. It would be nice if we could speak with them directly.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Our customer service and productivity have increased in quality and quantity since using this product."
"ITIL best practices and smart practices are efficient in calculating the performance of services provided."
"Remedyforce replaced all our legacy applications globally. This enabled us to move tickets and requests to other regions easily."
"Offers good reporting capabilities. Getting the right information is the key to understanding and improvements."
"If a company needs to expand the solution, they are able to do so. It is quite scalable."
"The stability is good. There are no bugs."
"The knowledge base is the solution's most valuable aspect. All of the knowledge we need is right at our fingertips."
"An inexpensive solution that is easy to set up and use without much support."
"The feature that we like best is the stability of the product."
 

Cons

"We have found the documentation a bit confusing at times. This area could use some improvement."
"The solution's technical support is in need of a lot of improvement."
"There should be some tool to move SRD and SLA from the sandbox to production."
"​Improve the out-of-the-box ITIL compliance, which would be great for new customers."
"They need to include more high-end technology, different languages, the kinds of things not yet included in the product."
"The customer service management (CSM) features are in need of improvement."
"The ease of customization needs improvement."
"The solution's business workforce should be much more capable of drag and drop functionality. The solution could be kind-of UI based rather than still being coding based. You still need an administrator profile, and you'll have to code things if you want to use the solution."
"It required a high amount of customisation for us to work with the tool and sometimes special capabilities needed to be purchased."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"After about six months, we started making a return on our investment at more than 300%."
"Agiloft has by far the best entry point for both cost and learning curve."
"BMC Remedyforce is extremely reasonable when talking about licensing costs."
"Licensing should be reviewed and understood before making the purchase."
"My current company has a deal. I think the subscription per year is 20K dollars. Per year for the client is really nothing compared to other products and solutions."
"The cost may be higher, but it is backed up by the great product and superb customer service."
