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

"Ivanti Neurons allows me to adjust our workflow according to our needs."
"The main feature for us is incident management, as it assists me in knowing my assignments, because we have group assignments. When we go to the group assignment they can assign it to me there."
"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."
"It is relatively cost-effective compared to other options like ServiceNow. Additionally, it is highly stable."
"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."
"The solution is easy to use and has a user-friendly interface"
"The integrations are quite simple and clear."
"They allow us to automate ticketing processes and create requests more efficiently, improving our overall support operations."
"The initial setup is easy and straightforward."
"The SLA, speed, the comments from agents' side, and the dashboard for agents are the most valuable features."
"Automation capabilities allow for automatic ticket creation using monitoring tools."
"It has improved our work in a number of ways. First, it has made everything much faster. Before Jira Service Management, it could take weeks to resolve a ticket."
"The most valuable features are the management tools."
"Easily integrates with other tools."
"It makes the IT department more transparent and helps the employees."
"The query language and the ability to create views of the data are very useful."
 

Cons

"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor."
"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."
"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 is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond."
"I believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited."
"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."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow."
"Lacks an interface where the customer can report issues."
"There is room for improvement in support."
"JSM's ability to handle large volumes of emails isn't great."
"Usability needs improvement. To configure it, you need to be well versed in Jira administration. It's not very intuitive."
"In general, JIRA has no relation to customers or financials. Therefore, marketplace add-ons are needed to make it work for customer-facing systems."
"The initial setup of JIRA Service Management can be complex for new users. There is a lot of configuration."
"The product does not have the capability to sort queued tickets by product. This would be useful in making workflows more efficient."
"Cost has prohibited us from switching entirely to this solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"The pricing is free for us because we are an associate partner for the product."
"It depends on the number of users but it starts at $20 per month per user. I would rate them a three out of five for pricing."
"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."
"The cost has recently increased. It might be around $20 to $25 per user license."
"Costs are about $50 per user per year. JIRA is sold in user tiers of 25, 50, 100, 250, 500, 2000, 10,000, and unlimited users. It is bad when you have 51 users then the price is based on that 100 user tier. Users at 100 will be the most cost effective."
"We have paid $20,000 recently for a one-year license for our on-prem server."
"We need a license because we have a higher number than the free part."
"Licensing can become quite expensive."
