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.

A modular, easy-to-use solution that needs to improve support and include automation
There are one or two annoying things. For example, if you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself. That's annoying. If you have five items in the drop-down list or if you have a hundred, it's just pathetic. It makes no sense that you have to do that because I've never seen it not work before in any other system that I've ever worked with. If you make a list of things, most solutions automatically put it in an alphabetized order. Or it'll put it in date order, but there is some order. It doesn't just go randomly in the order you create them. For example, I might load about 20 neighborhoods into a drop-down list, starting at "a" and ending at "z." But I might miss one of the "b's" and two of the "c's," so I add them, but they are added after the "z." Then I have to go to the bottom of the list, click on the one that starts with "b," and drag it all the way up to the "b's." That's just a pain in the butt.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is very scalable and stable when used as a help desk once it is built out."
"Their tech support has been talking to us about expanding features like integrations with Microsoft Teams."
"ManageEngine SupportCenter Plus works fine as a help desk software and is relatively inexpensive."
"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."
"The most valuable features are the ITIL compliance and billing."
"We have found the reporting in this product to be very useful."
"The most valuable feature of Vtiger CRM is automation."
"The fact that we can build our own modules on the solution is really quite attractive, and it's not overly complex."
 

Cons

"The tech support is terrible and that seems to be a part of their business plan."
"There is no cloud-based version and it would be helpful if it were available."
"They're pretty good but there's always room for improvement. There should be more templates that users can utilize immediately."
"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."
"ManageEngine SupportCenter Plus could improve on workflow automation features."
"The mobile design could improve in Vtiger CRM. It could be more user-friendly."
"If you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing fees depend on different criteria, including options and sizing."
"ManageEngine products will always be the lowest cost in category as that is part of their business model."
"We are using the free open-source version of Vtiger CRM."
"The price doesn't change when you add users. It's a flat fee, and that's attractive."
