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.

Implement service management changes while addressing UI improvements

Topdesk's user interface makes it easy to handle requests and escalate them to other groups or reassign them when working on a single ticket. Additionally, the service management tool in HR allows for a change in delivering services, replacing email communication with ticket raising. The knowledge library enables the local HR to store and share relevant information and frequently asked cases, enhancing collaboration. The ticket system also facilitates escalating cases to other involved departments. IT, HR, and some other teams primarily use this system.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is relatively cost-effective compared to other options like ServiceNow. Additionally, it is highly stable."

"Our First Call Close rate for the Service Desk was 70-80% once we got all the workflows and Notes and Question screens populated."

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

"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 solution is easy to use and has a user-friendly interface."

"The integrations are quite simple and clear."

Cons

"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 believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited."

"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor."

"Support needs improvement in terms of responsiveness and timeliness."

"The process to add fields is time consuming and requires the system to be offline while you apply an Edit Set."

"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."

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

More Ivanti Neurons for ITSM cons

"An operator is also a user but requires creating two different records."

"The solution's change management could be better."

"If I open a ticket on the infrastructure team, I can't move it to the financial team for them to manage the ticket."

"Change management implementation, facility management, and making reservations on assets can be improved."

"One of the disadvantages of TOPdesk is the reporting tool. It is very poor and not in real-time. You do not always receive the correct information."

"Change management implementation, facility management, and making reservations on assets can be improved."

"All companies have processes that need to be adjusted. When you have a change, you need to name it, and many companies have a set of changes you can use. It would be helpful if there were more space in TOPdesk to name the change or use metadata to record the kinds of changes."

More TOPdesk cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"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 solution's pricing is reasonable and not expensive."

"TOPdesk's pricing is cheaper than Jira's."

"There are three fee options to choose from for a company and these options compared to market prices are very high. For example, if I use one of the first options for 10 assets, then it costs 20,000 Euros. If you went to competitors, then you pay less."

"Compared to other products in this segment, I think that they are priced well and not too expensive."

"The cost of the solution on a yearly basis is $20,000. Technical support is not extra. It's included in the yearly cost. Updates are also included. The solution is good at keeping its product up to date."

"The solution is inexpensive compared to competitors."
