Self-service portal significantly reduces resolution time and transforms service process with advanced features
We initially had a lot of tickets generated via the service desk through calls and emails. Now, we have almost moved out of email creations by introducing the DWP features on the Studio pages, with about 90% of the tickets coming in via our self-service portal. Recent upgrades offer different types of views for particular business lines, which was missing earlier. The new landing pages have allowed us to add banners, images, and internal videos, encouraging most customers to use these DWP self-service features. Resolution time has decreased significantly since implementing the self-service portal. Additionally, the availability of knowledge articles, chatbots, and the new Helix GPT feature has improved service processes.

Chatbot has organized HR queries and has improved employee experience and self-service
The best feature that Leena AI offers is that it improves daily. Everything is improving with Leena AI, especially with enhancements in integrations, analytics, and the addition of AI in chatbots that help personalize content and provide relevant answers to end users based on past experiences from other companies. I worked in Human Resources and managed only the human resources section of Leena AI. Currently, Leena AI has also onboarded smart integration with WhatsApp, Teams, and Outlook, which is a valuable feature to have. Leena AI has positively impacted my organization since I implemented it in 2022 during COVID, as it organized messages from management and recruiters for 25,000 employees, helping to check their wellbeing while circulating important messages. After implementing Leena HR chatbot recently, workflows were streamlined. Queries that previously took five, six, or ten days to resolve are now managed under SLA, significantly improving employee experience. The improvements include an increase in resolution times. Since Leena AI is a growing chatbot, information that was previously scattered is now centralized, improving employee experience from 70% to 90% according to our survey.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Provides a clean front-end for our users to log requests and has rich ITSM functionality."
"Resolution time has decreased significantly since implementing the self-service portal."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The mobile features are the best part of the new version. It is easy to be notified and update your work from a mobile, which is great."
"BMC offers excellent customer solutions, and they're quick to address bugs or shortcomings in their product."
"In BMC, you can do absolutely anything. You can customize, you can configure, and you can customize and develop pretty much anything."
"MyIT is simple to use and its mobility is a big plus for our on the go users."
"It has the power to automatize several different tasks in the ITSM world."
"Leena AI has positively impacted my organization by improving the efficiency of employees who were earlier not aware where to go to submit their HR-related queries."
"After implementing Leena HR chatbot recently, workflows were streamlined, queries that previously took five, six, or ten days to resolve are now managed under SLA, significantly improving employee experience."
 

Cons

"Maybe it could be more simplified and easier to change the reporting point of view, like from a different vendor to another."
"There is a text editor that we use to enter our incident description or service request description, and it should be richer in terms of features."
"The amount of software issues are still too big, even considering the complexity of the tool."
"Some parts of the solutions are using the old interface."
"From time to time, we had issues with stability, but I think that is our fault due to extra processes that we implemented to fit our business needs."
"The documentation could improve in BMC Helix ITSM."
"I would also love to see consistency across all consoles."
"Provide documentation on the content of the REST API interfaces. Right now, it is pretty much non-existent."
"Customer support for Leena AI is very good, but it takes a lot of turnaround time to come back and resolve the questions, queries, or issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"BMC Helix ITSM is a very cost-effective solution."
"It is too expensive for a small business."
"It is not very expensive and not very cheap. It is somewhere in-between. Some of the features are more expensive. There are also additional costs. If you want to use most of the features, you need to pay more."
"BMC is a little bit cheaper than ServiceNow, but BMC doesn't have the same capabilities in its entry-level product at the moment. The basic version does not have the DWP features that most of our customers are requesting."
"I rate the product price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. The solution is expensive."
"It's a yearly subscription but there are a couple of customers who go for the monthly subscription."
"It is costly, but it is well worth it."
"While purchasing, try to negotiate on per user licensing costs, associated maintenance, and purchase 20% more then what you think you should have. Bulk is always cheaper."
