ICT Analyst at a energy/utilities company with 5,001-10,000 employees

Fulfills all IT management needs, simple setup, but could be more user-friendly

Unfortunately, we were not able to implement the mobility feature so I won't be able to provide feedback on it (and it was something that has been requested since we have field workers and given the WFH case due to the pandemic). This is due to results of security tests and which we were not yet able to address in our environment. We've been also trying to integrate our current system with discovery solutions but it was not easy. I am not sure if it is due to the fact that we still have an older version of the AlembavFire product. Also, users are also requesting that the current system's UI can still be improved. For those of our users who had experienced ServiceNow, they cited that they can do RFC chats via the tool. In our group, we are using AlembavFire for recording the ticket and do other discussions/alignments via Teams chat.

Manager - Technical Support at Persistent Systems

Has helped streamline ticketing and change management while offering clear documentation support

Documentation and learning materials are available for Ivanti Neurons for ITSM, and if you check the vendor sites, you will find documents for each feature. I believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited. If a user believes in Ivanti, they should also believe in all its products including Ivanti Neurons for ITSM and Neurons because they are genuinely putting in hard work. This is reflected in the documentation, though I suggest they work on creating more videos. Other than that, you will find everything you need in the community site and documentation site. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Ivanti Neurons for ITSM an 8 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"When we met with the Alemba vFire from Australia, it was a good discussion and they have a good feature roadmap."

"The workflow is very good, as well as customizable."

"It is easy to set up."

"The solution is easy to use and has a user-friendly interface"

"What I appreciate about Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is its comprehensive change request management system, which we utilize for server patching, workstation patching, BIOS updates, and driver updates, enabling us to have CAB meetings to discuss changes and approve them before implementation."

"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution."

"The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."

"The integrations are quite simple and clear."

Cons

"The product should improve its ability to integrate with third-party tools."

"We had issues with the user interface, the way it was structured wasn't that user-friendly. The chat features could improve. For example, in change management, all the chat discussions can be done via ServiceNow. We are using two separate solutions, such as Teams, to chat, and the Alemba vFire tool to process."

"The reporting needs to be improved."

"The user interface must be made simpler and more effective."

"Sometimes I can't get the reports that I want until I go to the manager. They need to put more into the new reports. The standard reports are great, but there do not communicate as much."

"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."

"I believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited."

"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor."

"There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond."

"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is much cheaper than ServiceNow."

"Alemba vFire is more affordable than the other solutions on the market. The solution changes for the number of customers not per user or module. The price was reasonable overall. We paid for support and it was a fair price."

"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."

"The product is affordable for small businesses."

"I came to know from my team members that my company used to operate ServiceNow but shifted to Ivanti Neurons for ITSM due to its low licensing prices."

"If you want to add more users who can handle support there will be additional fees. What we call our extensions, we need to pay more for. They tell us that we need to acquire more licenses or something like that. I think it's very expensive, because in terms the pula, our local currency, it's about 20,000 per license for each user. It is an annual fee."
