Manager - Technical Support at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees

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 technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."

"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."

"Ivanti Neurons allows me to adjust our workflow according to our needs."

"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."

"This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies."

"I like Cloud Neurons. Since it's a cloud version, it's much easier to enhance productivity because it collects all the information automatically."

"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution."

More Ivanti Neurons for ITSM pros

"I think one of the most valuable things is that it's all integrated."

"I'm mainly working in the ITSM module of JIRA Service Management, and the integration between the system incident and how you can link all the records to the change makes it quite powerful."

"In Jira Service Management, the most beneficial features are process improvement, workflows, and escalations."

"The links between the help desk and Jira issues and between Confluence and Jira issues are most valuable. I can write requirements in Confluence and link them to user stories in Jira and test cases. I can see my test coverage and all that kind of stuff. The integration between these three is very useful. It is pretty customizable, and it integrates well. There are a lot of add-ins and a lot of connectors to third-party products. In my last company, we used Test Royal for managing all the tests, and it integrated perfectly with that. For any issue or bug, we could see what tests have been run and the complete history of the tests."

"The initial setup is pretty easy."

"The most valuable feature of JIRA Service Management is a plugin we are using for the front end for simple user forms."

"The flow of the reports is good."

"One of the valuable features is that an automatic response or action can be taken on tickets."

More JIRA Service Management pros

Cons

"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."

"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor."

"The user interface must be made simpler and more effective."

"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."

"There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond."

"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's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved."

More Ivanti Neurons for ITSM cons

"If JIRA were more of a substantial stand-alone product that covered more needs for project management, we wouldn't be using a suite of products."

"There should be better connections with access management. They should improve the connectivity."

"A lot of users have said that they want a feature that was on the on-prem version of Jira and the vendor can't deliver. They're either unwilling or unable to give feature parity."

"JSM's ability to handle large volumes of emails isn't great."

"Include a split configuration in a layer part to allow cloud services to have almost full admin rights in SaaS."

"The deployment can be a bit complex, especially for those who are not technical."

"The performance in cloud service management could be improved."

"Jira Service Management is expensive and not worth the money compared to monday.com."

More JIRA Service Management cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is affordable for small businesses."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"It is a cheaply priced product."

"It's not really expensive, especially when you compare to ServiceNow or other solutions, and it's not expensive to maintain."

"I am using the free version, but my clients are paying for it. When they start, they evaluate it for 30 days, and after seeing the value, they move to its paid version."

"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."

"I rate Service Management four out of 10 for affordability. The price could be better, especially for companies using more than one Atlassian product. It's suitable for SMBs that can afford it. I don't think there's another tool that's both better and cheaper. All help desk tools are relatively expensive."

"Right now, there are only two of us who are both agents on the help desk and developers. We might be on the free version because we're less than three agents or users. I'm looking at Zephyr tests, which have a $10 a month flat rate, so right now, it is $10 a month. There are lots of add-ons. They do a free version, a standard version, and a premium version. In the last company, we started on $50 a month. By the time I left, we were paying $4,500 a month. That was mainly because we had 100 users on Confluence. I bought an add-on for Jira software for which we had 10 users, and that was $5 per user per month. It was costing me $500 a month, whereas it should only be $50 a month. I don't know if licensing fee has changed. I'd like our whole company to use it, but the big problem is the licensing because the Confluence side is what is really useful, but if I add 30 users to Confluence and then buy an extension for Jira software, I've got to pay for 30 licenses, even though I've only got two users in Jira software. It is the one big disadvantage of cloud software. You always have to pay for the number of seats regardless of which product you are on. This will probably severely limit how many people would use it because I'm not going to start paying $10 per user per month for a Jira software add-on when there are only two people using it."
