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

"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."
"Ivanti Neurons allows me to adjust our workflow according to our needs."
"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution."
"They allow us to automate ticketing processes and create requests more efficiently, improving our overall support operations."
"The interface, workflow, and dashboards are powerful and easy to manage for tracking KPIs and sharing strategies with our customers."
"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."
"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."
"The solution is easy to use and has a user-friendly interface"
"This is a flexible tool for logging and tracking issues efficiently."
"I like the precise ticket management capabilities. JIRA Service Management is easy to use as well."
"JIRA Service Management is a very user-friendly solution."
"The dashboards are nicely laid out."
"​Allows customized processes for our service contracts."
"The most valuable features are the flexibility of defining your own workflows and automation around the workflows, and the integration with the gate or any repository."
"The SLA, speed, the comments from agents' side, and the dashboard for agents are the most valuable features."
"What I really like about this solution, is how it manages the queues, the tickets and the routing."
 

Cons

"The user interface must be made simpler and more effective."
"Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control."
"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."
"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."
"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"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's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved."
"This solution lacks features for project management."
"The platform should be more user-friendly. JIRA's user interface needs training to understand and utilize."
"The interface could be made easier to use."
"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."
"Initially, as a completely new user, the interface was not very user-friendly, with many cluttered options."
"Currently lacks an asset management module that can affect deployment."
"The licensing model could be improved. There needs to be a different licensing model for large numbers of employees, as it remains one of the main barriers to using JIRA Service Management across our entire company."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"JIRA Service Desk has different pricing as it is based on agents. On average, the price is about $300 per agent."
"The price of JIRA Service Management could be reduced."
"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."
"I price of JIRA Service Management is reasonable."
"JIRA Service Management's pricing is pretty decent compared to competitors. I rate the pricing an eight to nine on a scale of one to ten."
"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."
"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."
