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 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."
"It is relatively cost-effective compared to other options like ServiceNow. Additionally, it is highly stable."
"Ivanti Neurons allows me to adjust our workflow according to our needs."
"The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"The integrations are quite simple and clear."
"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution."
"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."
"Everything in Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is excellent, and they are doing their best."
"Everyone knows how to use it, so there's no need to teach new members."
"The initial setup is pretty easy."
"JSM's best feature is the integration with other Jira products."
"The visibility features are great."
"We get software developed faster."
"This is a flexible tool for logging and tracking issues efficiently."
"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."
"I think one of the most valuable things is that it's all integrated."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond."
"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."
"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."
"Support needs improvement in terms of responsiveness and timeliness."
"I believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited."
"Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control."
"There's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved."
"JSM's ability to handle large volumes of emails isn't great."
"Jira Service Management could improve by offering more control similar to Monday.com, such as easier automations, file addition, and sharing with different people."
"The documentation needs improving, it's difficult to find specific procedures."
"JIRA Service Management is costly."
"When you raise a ticket with Jira, there's no ability to see your other JIRA tickets."
"The way it handles subtasks can be improved. We would really like the ability to have different types of subtasks. If we have a user story for a feature, we would like to have a subtask for documentation, a subtask for requirements, a subtask for development, and a subtask for testing. Right now, we just make four subtasks, but there is no way to specify their type, so we have to add a custom field to specify what type of work is this. It just means you've got to look at more data. For logging time or time tracking, we would like to have something using which we can define the work type we're doing. We would like to log whether we're working on a bug, a new development, scope change, or rework. We've got a user story for which we do the dev, and then we have to do more dev. It is the same story, but some of it could have been a scope change, and some of it could be a rework because we either screwed up the first time or missed something obvious. Currently, we have to have a custom field and track that separately. It would be nice to have some kind of work type for logging time."
"As a consultant, I have used the support. Some of the support I have received has been good and other times it could improve."
"In-built chat is missing in JIRA Service Management."
 

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."
"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"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."
"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 one of the premium products on the market, but it is very costly, especially in the Indian market."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"Licensing can become quite expensive."
"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."
"We may upgrade the license that we have. The license that we currently have is good for 500 agents, and it's not full yet."
"The price of JIRA Service Management could be reduced."
"It costs around $150 to $200 per user."
