View full review »We started using ServiceDesk Plus when we had it on-premises, but now we are using the cloud version. It is used for asset management, ticket management, and change control processes.
View full review »One major way it helps is by providing complete visibility on fixed assets, particularly IT assets like endpoints, servers, and network switches. It tracks their whereabouts, lifecycle, and warranty or AMC management.
For example, if a laptop has a three-year on-site comprehensive warranty with accidental damage protection, and the user accidentally breaks it, we may sometimes consider purchasing a replacement instead of using the existing warranty because we are unaware of the coverage. This is one of the business use cases.
View full review »I have configured ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus for four companies. These organizations have utilized the product to manage IT tickets and requests efficiently. In my role, I utilize the platform within the IT framework for incident management, change management, problem management, asset management, and other related tasks.

In our company, we use this solution on a daily basis as an administration application for reporting, where you can assign incident tickets or trade tickets and the relevant department uses it for follow up on problems or changes that have occurred.
I use it to create reports that show our teams where the issues are, what's going well, and what can be improved. My colleagues use it from a workflow perspective.
We have different organizations with a centralized help desk that will lock calls into groups of 20 or 30 people. We have a team that builds and customizes it and then we have all kinds of managers that pull out reports.

We have a toll free number for our company, customers call us and ask about their problem. We issue the ticket to the customer as well as our local internal team. Then after the team tickets the number and the particular client coded up. We resolve the issue and after the issue is resolved we close the ticket. This is our main mode of operation. When we go through the audit, the company requires that all of these tickets require the solution. That's why we use this application. Mainly for auditing purposes for this application.
