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.

Manual ticketing features hinder workflow, but cost-effective ticket management is ensured
We just use it because it's more trouble to rip it out than to replace it with a more expensive tool. I would not recommend this product to others. If budget is a concern, it might be suitable but it doesn’t excite. Hence, I would rate it a four out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"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 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 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."
"The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"Ivanti Neurons allows me to adjust our workflow according to our needs."
"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."
"The most valuable features are the ITIL compliance and billing."
"The product is very scalable and stable when used as a help desk once it is built out."
"The product teams are continuously on the products trying to improve them. If, for example, I ask for a change to be done in the software, the chances are in the next release it's going to be done and incorporated. It's this personal touch that I like."
"ManageEngine SupportCenter Plus works fine as a help desk software and is relatively inexpensive."
"We have found the reporting in this product to be very useful."
"Their tech support has been talking to us about expanding features like integrations with Microsoft Teams."
 

Cons

"I believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited."
"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."
"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."
"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow."
"The user interface must be made simpler and more effective."
"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"They could provide product integration with popular platforms."
"There is no cloud-based version and it would be helpful if it were available."
"ManageEngine SupportCenter Plus could improve on workflow automation features."
"The product is very difficult to use and configure and requires specialists."
"The business model for the company is to sell low and charge for customization, education or expertise."
"I would like to see some kind of project management or portfolio management in a future version."
"They're pretty good but there's always room for improvement. There should be more templates that users can utilize immediately."
"The tech support is terrible and that seems to be a part of their business plan."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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 product is affordable for small businesses."
"ManageEngine products will always be the lowest cost in category as that is part of their business model."
"The licensing fees depend on different criteria, including options and sizing."
