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.

"It is easy to set up."
"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution."
"It is relatively cost-effective compared to other options like ServiceNow. Additionally, it is highly stable."
"The interface, workflow, and dashboards are powerful and easy to manage for tracking KPIs and sharing strategies with our customers."
"The integrations are quite simple and clear."
"Ivanti Neurons allows me to adjust our workflow according to our needs."
"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."
"Customizations are most valuable. The customization of workflows is the main power of the Atlassian tools in general."
"This service management solution has a good user interface. It helps improve your IT request requirements and makes tracking requests easier."
"The dashboards in Jira have been the most useful feature."
"The most valuable feature of Jira is that it is free of cost, which is a significant advantage."
"It is 100% stable."
"The simplicity is good for our clients. The price is good."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"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."
 

Cons

"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."
"The user interface must be made simpler and more effective."
"I believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited."
"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."
"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor."
"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."
"If I need a new feature, JIRA requires me to pay for all users when only specific people use that add-on. I should not have to pay for everyone, so this is an area for improvement."
"Generally requires the purchase of additional plugins."
"Instability happens sometimes - although not frequently."
"Field addition and removal features are not very intuitive in JIRA Service Management."
"JIRA Service Management is costly."
"Lacks an interface where the customer can report issues."
"It is difficult to navigate if you don't have any prior knowledge."
"It would be beneficial if we could turn comments into subtasks or other JIRA tickets directly."
 

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."
"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 product is affordable for small businesses."
"The pricing is very competitive and I think that it is okay."
"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."
"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."
"It is one of the premium products on the market, but it is very costly, especially in the Indian market."
"JSM's pricing is one of the best, starting at around $10 per user, per month, with volume discounts available."
"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."
"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."
"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."
