Cloud storage with no hardware needed and great comprehensive reports
The software is cloud-based, so I do not need to store any data locally. It is a fully software-based solution, eliminating the need for investment in hardware. We have the capability to create reports as needed. It is good software to use, as there were no incidents where I needed to contact technical support. Additionally, it is free software.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Since we started using OpMon, we have increased our assertiveness and consequently reduced costs with fewer errors."
"As a consulting company we implement management solutions to a large variety of companies and after working with OpMon our project time was reduced and we can offer a different solution to each customer."
"The most valuable features are the inventory and personalization."
"It's a pretty good product, I like it, and it's given me some fairly valuable information that I've needed on a couple of occasions that no other product would present to me."
"Tickets by e-mail, with actions by hastag."
"It shows the users that are currently logged in, which is not something that Active Directory by default will ever let you know up front."
"Spiceworks managed all tasks of the company on a daily routine, helping track priorities, knowledge base, and manage the incoming tickets from customers and inside projects, giving the employees one place to observe the correct state of the company productivity."
"If you are a small – medium sized business you cannot go wrong with using Spiceworks to help you provide an A+ IT support as it is free."
"Spiceworks gives you a very good but basic help desk platform that is easy to implement and use."
"The solution is easy to use and easy to manage."
 

Cons

"Infrastructure and business monitoring services need improvement."
"They've also tried to integrate it with social logins, like Twitter and LinkedIn, and that type of login authentication has no place in a corporate application."
"Mac networking needs improving, as everything has to be manually entered in a Mac environment."
"I would like to see the help desk product be more stable."
"Right now, if you have >2000 endpoints in Spiceworks, you will probably hate using it just because it's so bogged down."
"It would be great to see them improve on the ticketing aspect. It still lacks some basic features that other systems have such as limiting the view of queues to certain techs."
"The social and collaborative tools, such as integration to LYNC, Yammer, or equivalents."
"I think its monitoring tools could use some improvement."
"The stability is lacking; we have to restart the software about one or two times a week."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The product is free! Get it now."
"It might be about $300 annually for a bigger company. If you pay annually, it's better and cheaper."
"The tool is cheap."
"It's free."
"Seeing that it is a low-cost solution, I would advise you to go ahead with Spiceworks and experiment with it to see if you can get things working properly, especially if you currently don't have any existing service desk software in place."
