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.

Comprehensive workflows and data views have supported complex teams but still need cost improvements
JIRA Service Management is costly. The pricing structure needs improvement. When I add some plugins, I have to pay the cost for every user whether they are using it or not. For smaller companies, the detailed workflow editing and the kind of details that JIRA Service Management provides would be complex. For startups and smaller companies, JIRA Service Management would be complex. The cloud offering is easier because I don't have to manage the infrastructure. There are two templates of the project: company-managed and team-managed. Team-managed is a newer feature, which is good for startup-kind companies where they don't need control over data from multiple projects displaying in one dashboard. For startups, JIRA Service Management is somewhat complex with its schemes and everything. Capacity management should be improved in terms of additional features in the next release of JIRA Service Management.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."
"The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"They allow us to automate ticketing processes and create requests more efficiently, improving our overall support operations."
"Overall, the platform, in its abilities, is really powerful, especially now with AI as a part of hyper-automation."
"I like Cloud Neurons. Since it's a cloud version, it's much easier to enhance productivity because it collects all the information automatically."
"The solution is easy to use and has a user-friendly interface"
"Everything in Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is excellent, and they are doing their best."
"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution."
"The centralized feature allows us to track test cases and integrate with automation and bug fixing."
"Useful for tracking issues with development."
"The tool's stability is very good."
"The most valuable features of JIRA Service Management are the service level agreement or management, and the ticketing system. Additionally, there are frequent updates that provide improvements."
"The dashboards in Jira have been the most useful feature."
"The customer portal allows users to register tickets themselves."
"Confluence is a great tool for documentation and tracking."
"Jira Service Management has a workflow feature you can configure for your specific requirements. It also lets you efficiently manage service requests with team members."
 

Cons

"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."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM's support model is not very strong. You should buy professional services. Its self-service portal and survey are extremely lacking. You cannot customize it, and it doesn't look very good. The solution does not have a strong community."
"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."
"There's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved."
"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"I have had to open a few support tickets with the HEAT Service Management. They are very good but there are some areas that they could improve on."
"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."
"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."
"Field addition and removal features are not very intuitive in JIRA Service Management."
"The price is a point of contention for me. It does overall work out as a significant amount of money that will be spent over a shorter period of time."
"The product does not allow customization of reports."
"There should be better connections with access management. They should improve the connectivity."
"Integration possibilities with other products that are not Atlassian would be helpful. Support should also provide separate installation guides for each product even though they are easy to install."
"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."
"An improvement they could add is a better management dashboard. We only use the dashboard for the administration mode. We have a dashboard that reports the state of bugs or requirements. However, customers can only view requests that they made. We are not able to share a dashboard with our manager level customers to show them all of the requests in a quick dashboard."
"When you raise a ticket with Jira, there's no ability to see your other JIRA tickets."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"The product is affordable for small businesses."
"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"This is pricey solution. Should we move to using all cloud solutions in our business, we may move to different tools that have multiple functionality versus having a solution for each area. This would be too pricey and we would need to replace Jira with a different solution that also offers other features."
"We need a license because we have a higher number than the free part."
"On a scale of one to five, where five is a good price and one is high, I would rate this solution as a three. It isn't cheap but it's not ridiculous."
"On a scale of one to five, with one being really high and five being good, I would rate the price of this solution as a four."
"Do not forget to calculate add-on costs. These cost a percentage of the JIRA purchasing costs and are based on the number of JIRA users."
"Buying a software solution is only a half part of the solution (or even less). You need to optimize usage of the software by hiring professionals who will help you to make the most of the software, especially in the beginning."
"But about the plugins, I found one plug-in — its name is Actionable Metric I think — and it is $3000. That is very expensive for users in Iran."
"We have an annual license with JIRA Service Management, but it is billed monthly."
