Scalable but interface can be improved
Basically, we use it for service management from the financial side of things I would say the simplicity of it. It's not very difficult and doesn't require strong technical skills to understand or implement. The interface can be improved. It can be made more interactive for self-service users.…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Incident management is a valuable feature."
"The initial setup was quite simple; installing just took a few minutes."
"The most valuable features of the Ivanti Service Desk are service requests and incident management."
"The best feature is that SLAs are automatically tracked, so when we breach something, we can set up email escalations as well."
"The tool supports a lot of standard reporting KPIs."
"It is highly configurable with PinkVERIFY status."
"Ivanti offers us the flexibility to transform it from purely an internal IT tool to something we can use across multiple departments. There's now a queue of departments waiting to onboard and get their processes built. The flexibility within the workflow is excellent."
"Incident management and service request management features are the most valuable."
"Features similar to WhatsApp, such as online and offline statuses, message reactions, and replies, add significant value."
"The most valuable feature for us, besides chat, was file transfer, as we used it for sending files and images in chats."
"Sendbird provides many features for real-time messaging, such as receipt ID and typing indicators."
"The Sendbird developer portal provides each step, including methods, making it easy to implement."
"There are many useful features with Sendbird."
"The backend system was managed by Sendbird, eliminating the need for caching systems or local storage on user devices."
"Sendbird is reliable and generally crash-free."
"Sendbird is very flexible, and they have made great strides towards optimization."
 

Cons

"The documentation for migration which includes migration from one version to another or cloud to on-premises is not available in detail. There is no proper planning on metadata updates. I am not able to do the data movement with the package push."
"You have limited ability to customize how Ivanti renders. It's a fairly strict design that doesn't offer you much freedom to alter the rigid, two-column layout on the screen. You can choose between one column or two, but that's about it. The presentation is probably the biggest weakness."
"The mobile service is minimal and doesn't provide sufficient capabilities."
"Ivanti Service Desk could improve the GUI because it is not as good as other solutions, such as BMC or ServiceNow. If Ivanti Service Desk works on the GUI and makes it more user-friendly, and its content more attractive it might help the solution in the long run."
"When we need to implement changes, it usually takes two to three days to happen, making it a very time-consuming process."
"The administrative side of it could be a little more intuitive. This is the side that you use to do customizations. It is very customizable, but it could be a bit more intuitive and user-friendly. Their support can also be better in terms of response time. Currently, their response time is a little slow."
"The interface can be improved. It can be made more interactive for self-service users."
"You must be very technical to configure it."
"Impersonating a user or using a template user to send messages for development purposes would be very useful."
"More analytics tools could be integrated into Sendbird."
"At times, there are unexpected behaviors where the documentation suggests something different from how the SDK actually behaves, requiring us to create workarounds."
"A major issue was the requirement for a separate connection to Sendbird, resulting in a delay when initiating the chat."
"The documentation for integrating with the Flutter framework is lacking detailed information."
"I thought that there should be the audio and the video call functionality as well."
"The documentation for integrating with the Flutter framework is lacking detailed information. Initially, I struggled to connect users and manage tokens for active and offline sessions, which caused frustration."
"Their pricing is very high compared to competitors, which is a concern for us."
