Good monitoring and alerting capability, and it is easy to deploy
This solution is good for configuration management. The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training. ManageEngine is easy to deploy. It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network. The alerting capability is good and it will send out emails.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We find its ability to track what's going on with each request very valuable. We are also able to merge ticket requests and assign them to different groups in the company. We have another department that uses the same system."
"It is a stable solution. My company hasn't faced any problems with the solution."
"Freshservice has automated a lot of our tasks, including ticket responses and call assignments, which has sped up our operations considerably."
"It allowed the development team to concentrate on the client’s requirements instead."
"The most valuable features of Freshservice are the notifications, customization, and flexibility."
"We use the ticketing system primarily, which is very easy to use for all users."
"The most valuable feature of Freshservice is you can assign downloaded tickets and the reports are useful."
"Depending on the size of your organization, is pretty standard and useful."
"It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network."
"The technical support is good."
"The product helps users stay on top of gaining insight into the active directory, permissions and security sets, and user group policy changes."
 

Cons

"The analytics could be better."
"I would suggest that Freshservice enhance its technical capabilities, particularly when it comes to ICT network discovery."
"Not integrated with Google."
"Some of the ways that tasks are reported on and shown can be better. You can't see tasks in your regular ticket list view. You can't see a combo view of tasks and tickets. It is a little bit difficult to get a solid overview of your list of things to do. You can only see them in separate views, instead of one single view."
"We'd like to see a CMDB, a Configuration Management Database, in the future."
"There is a need for improvement in terms of automatic escalation to the next level if an issue is not resolved. It should optimize and allow customization. Additionally, asset management needs improvement."
"It's hard to interact directly with the users themselves."
"The round robin ticketing feature that they have is not ideal."
"The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is $34 per license, per agent. Currently, we don't see any add-ons at extra fees."
"It was a middle tier. It wasn't an expensive one. It was a tier model usage. Licensing costs varied between admin users and regular users."
"Its price is great. Its pricing is supposedly a lot less than ServiceNow and other alternatives."
"I don't think it's expensive for the US or some European markets. Still, when I used Freshservice in Mexico, some customers found it a bit pricey, especially considering the platform's features. I think the pricing is fair for use in the European market, but it might be perceived differently in Latin America."
"The price of Freshservice could improve, it is expensive."
"It is good for the price you pay. It has different plans. If you need all features, you need to go for a higher plan. Currently, with the second tier plan, you cannot completely separate the group of agents. So, the agent in each group can see another person's ticket. You also cannot modify the rules based on the viewable, readable stuff and cannot have a custom role in this plan. If you want to do that, you have to go for a higher plan. It works in our case because it doesn't matter if the other group can see our ticket because it doesn't contain anything sensitive. We also didn't need the project or change management features. That's why we didn't go with a higher plan."
"Freshservice price is competitive, it is not more than other solutions on the market."
"The pricing information is on their website. It's my understanding that their Pro Plan, for example, is around $89/month."
