In particular, the homepages were well arranged, so I was able to get what I wanted. Cons Unfortunately, it would have been better if the company had been expressed in a picture to be brief. Review Source SD Spyros D. Assistant Professor Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Simple and intuitive, I get along well with it." July 2, 2025 5.0 Reliable way to report requirements and problems, processing according to priorities. Surely benefits from implementation in the respective field. Pros We've been using the ITAM variant in our field for years. There's a nice dashboard where you can see how many tickets are still open, how much time is left and the team's performance. If someone is already working on a ticket, you can see it at the top which is quite helpful. The knowledge base is also quite helpful, but it's rather difficult to find specific instructions there. Cons Unfortunately, the program is often only as good as its users, which means you have to get to grips with in particular in order to be able to use all features of the program.

Medical Devices Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cloud and Spaces Migration is Not Complete" November 5, 2025 3.0 I like the on-prem system and the classic UI, it was great. This new Cloud environment and Spaces UI feels like an abandoned project that the leadership team just has not been able to call a failure and rollback yet. Either finish it or nix it. Sitting in this halfway point is counterproductive and a clear failure. Pros Very robust system with many tools and abilities baked in. Very Versatile. is working with third party tools for integration opportunities with many, many pieces of software and other environments. Cons The move from Classic to Spaces UI has been ongoing for years now, seems to have been abandoned at some point and left in an unfinished state. Spaces is half-baked with tons of issues and seems like it's been stuck halfway through its development for years now. Their documentation explaining everything about and how to use every component was great.....5-7 years ago. For the environment these days it's a coin flip if the documentation is on point or not.

It’s clear they genuinely enjoy what they do. Highly recommended! Pros We are currently in the implementation stage of the ITSM tool, and the experience so far has been outstanding. The SysAid team has been very approachable, highly knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly throughout the process. Their professionalism and support have made a real difference. There have been no hidden costs, which has made budgeting and planning straightforward. We’re especially impressed with their automation capabilities and Agentic AI solution - both are powerful, intuitive, and easily configurable. These features are set to save us significant time and money, streamlining our operations and boosting efficiency Cons While the AI and automation capabilities of this ITSM solution are undeniably powerful, streamlining many repetitive and time-consuming tasks, here is a potential downside. The reduction in manual input could impact certain roles, particularly those focused on routine service desk functions. This shift, although beneficial for operational efficiency, may leave limited time for individuals to reskill or for organisations to redeploy staff effectively. To fully realise the benefits of automation while maintaining a strong support culture, it’s essential that organisations proactively plan for workforce transition and invest in upskilling and internal mobility Alternatives considered [Ivanti Neurons for MDM](https://www.capterra.com/p/124078/Advanced-Mobile-Management/) Reason for choosing SysAid had the best price and AI/Automation features.

We have a lot to learn about it still as well Pros Very customizable, everything is ran from the cloud so users can access it from anywhere.
