Dexter De Torres - PeerSpot reviewer
Simple to use and very easy to deploy
For the free version, the tool should improve the graphics as it is kind of old school. The graphics are very flat compared to Google Workspace and Office 365. If you are not concerned about aesthetics, it is a fine tool. It is a good tool if you are more focused on the functionality. There are some bugs in the tool because it has a lot of features. Correlating all of the features can sometimes cause the tool to fail. If you create a ticket and then link it to an asset, there can arise some issues, but with support, one can customize and fix the issues in the product. The cost of the tool is an area of concern since it is 19 Euros per agent for a month. If your help desk team is of ten people, then you can multiply 19 Euros by ten people. The updates will be automatic if you get the tool's cloud version, but for the free version, you need to learn how to manage or administer Linux, PHP, and Apache because you will be updating the system manually. The updates are available, but you need to ensure that you have a test environment first before you apply it to the production environment because sometimes the updates mess up the data. I need to have a test environment first before loading it, but aside from the system, you also need to update the OS, PHP, and the web server itself. A lot of administrative tasks are needed if it is the free version, but for the cloud, you just use the product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is very easy to deploy."
"The tool's most valuable features include UI, visualization, and data scraping."
"The best feature for me is the power of customization, allowing us to add extensions from each place of GLPI."
"The product is user-friendly."
"The most valuable features of GLPI are its ITSM capabilities, including ticketing, automatic tasks, plugins, and notification systems."
"The most valuable features of GLPI are asset management, asset tracking, asset reporting, and ticket management. We use it as a configuration management database (CMDB), which is very useful for impact assessment and change management. The license management feature is also beneficial because it is bundled with asset management. When an agent reports a certain set into the database, all the software running on that host or server is assessed, collected, and reported. This makes license management very useful. Since implementing GLPI, we've noticed that our IT operations are more stable. The tool allows us to manage changes in the environment more effectively by creating change requests for assets. GLPI supports our processes, allowing us to organize IT operations with custom forms and workflows, making it quite flexible. Although the deployment is still in progress, we see significant benefits in organizing our IT processes with this tool."
"GLPI helps with tracking device assets. For example, when I assign a laptop to an employee, the GLPI agent installed on the client device gathers detailed information about it."
"Easily integrates with other tools."
"The automations will really help the company by delegating work the way your company operates."
"The most valuable feature of JIRA Service Management is a plugin we are using for the front end for simple user forms."
"We can track, monitor, and get all the details we need from the end-user's point of view for any service request."
"It makes the IT department more transparent and helps the employees."
"The tool is scalable."
"The centralized feature allows us to track test cases and integrate with automation and bug fixing."
"In Jira Service Management, the most beneficial features are process improvement, workflows, and escalations."
 

Cons

"The solution must be more flexible."
"The solution has occasional lags and glitches."
"The stability of Windows OS could be enhanced."
"A stringent plugin management would benefit GLPI. You can extend GLPI with many plugins, but plugin development is handled by individuals worldwide. Since it's an open-source solution, plugins are developed independently, and you never know which plugin is compatible with your version of GLPI. I would suggest that the developers focus more on plugin management to ensure plugins are more consistent and compatible with most versions of GLPI. Currently, you always have to check if a plugin works with your GLPI install, which can be inconvenient."
"For the free version, the tool should improve the graphics as it is kind of old school. The graphics are very flat compared to Google Workspace and Office 365."
"One area for improvement is the occasional issues we encounter, which are not directly related to GLPI but are due to network providers. These include network errors like 502 and 504, indicating some failure in network communication with the server."
"I've encountered some issues with GLPI. The official documentation on the GLPI website recommends using PHP version 8.3, but it used to recommend PHP version 8.2."
"The licensing model could be improved."
"Lacks an interface where the customer can report issues."
"Jira Service Management is expensive and not worth the money compared to monday.com."
"JSD has some analytics, but it's pretty much basic and simple dashboards. There's no mobile application for JSD. It really would benefit from better implementation with other vendors. We're heavily reliant on some external marketplace applications."
"The initial setup is very complex."
"The interface could be made easier to use. While it is not the worst, there is still room for improvement."
"I would like to see the user interface changed, it is not very user-friendly, and it transitions workflows."
"Include a split configuration in a layer part to allow cloud services to have almost full admin rights in SaaS."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is reasonable."
"I have used the tool's open-source version...GLPI Network Cloud is 19 Euros per month. It comes with one agent only, but if you use the IT asset management part, it is unlimited."
"It's not really expensive, especially when you compare to ServiceNow or other solutions, and it's not expensive to maintain."
"JSM's pricing is one of the best, starting at around $10 per user, per month, with volume discounts available."
"We have an annual license with JIRA Service Management, but it is billed monthly."
"The price for JIRA Service Management is reasonable and cheaper than other ITSM solutions, but the licensing model is different, so you cannot compare it with other solutions. Overall, the pricing for the solution is acceptable."
"The cost has recently increased. It might be around $20 to $25 per user license."
"We have paid $20,000 recently for a one-year license for our on-prem server."
"It costs around $150 to $200 per user."
"I would suggest to always buy licenses through an Atlassian partner, so you can also rely on their expertise."
