SolarWinds Service Desk Reviews
Pros
This solution is great for tracking incidents, solutions, problems, etc for company IT departments. It provides an easy to use interface that allows for easy creation of FAQs and a Solutions Database.
We started with the asset management, and now are about to expand to the service desk which looks like it has some awesome features we plan to utilize right away like workflows and Jira integration.
The power points in using a hosted solution are functionality, speed, intuitiveness, reliability, and cost effectiveness. Samanage has succeeded in all these areas.
We were also impressed with the flexibility of the licensing and the willingness to help package exactly what we needed for our solution.
Cons
The Chat response from an agent on Solarwinds takes time to respond. If there's an outage the email delivery is slightly delayed for the announcement.
Getting confused sometimes about where a specific feature may be.
I dislike the software management portion of this solution. It is next to useless if you need to manage software licenses or counts.
No option to have a 10 or 15 minute warning before SLA breaches (quite important for us as it's possible to easily miss these due to high ticket volumes).
