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

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

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

"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."

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

"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."

"The integrations are quite simple and clear."

"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."

"The interface, workflow, and dashboards are powerful and easy to manage for tracking KPIs and sharing strategies with our customers."

More Ivanti Neurons for ITSM pros

"It's easy to set up the solution."

"Easy to use and user-friendly."

"The solution offers lots of information on the website to assist with technical queries. There are also many community sites to help you troubleshoot any problems."

"The most valuable features of JIRA Service Management are the service level agreement or management, and the ticketing system. Additionally, there are frequent updates that provide improvements."

"With Jira Service Desk, the simplicity of setting up a quick form and getting the service desk running quickly is very helpful."

"The centralized feature allows us to track test cases and integrate with automation and bug fixing."

"Apart from ticket management and workflow, the Kanban board is one of the helpful tools in Jira."

"One of the main advantages of JIRA is that it can be customized for our solutions. I live in Iran and we translated some parts of it into Persian and customized it with extra features. We hid other features to customize it right to the point. We provide this solution for our customers."

More JIRA Service Management pros

Cons

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

"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."

"They could provide product integration with popular platforms."

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

"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."

"Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control."

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

"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."

More Ivanti Neurons for ITSM cons

"The solution should be more formalized. It could be more user-friendly."

"The product does not have the capability to sort queued tickets by product. This would be useful in making workflows more efficient."

"Lacks an interface where the customer can report issues."

"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."

"I rate Atlassian support two out of 10. It takes a lot of time to reach them and get ahold of someone who understands my problem enough to provide a solution. Also, I live in Israel, so my work week is Sunday through Thursday, but I can only contact them from Monday to Wednesday."

"We have tried exporting some of the test cases into Jira from Excel. The interface for that isn't very user-friendly."

"JIRA Service Management could improve the forms. When you complete the form for the ticket, for example, to have more information given to the team. If they needed this information, you can give it to them. They need to add additional information for a better understanding of the whole picture of the issue or problem."

"Instability happens sometimes - although not frequently."

More JIRA Service Management cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"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."

"The price of JIRA Service Management could be reduced."

"We have paid $20,000 recently for a one-year license for our on-prem server."

"JIRA Service Desk has different pricing as it is based on agents. On average, the price is about $300 per agent."

"The price for JIRA Service Management is reasonable and cheaper than other ITSM solutions, but the licensing model is different, so you cannot compare it with other solutions. Overall, the pricing for the solution is acceptable."

"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 price of the solution is becoming expensive and it should be reduced."

"The pricing is free for us because we are an associate partner for the product."

"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."
