### "BOSS Support Central - A Remote Support Must Have!"

June 17, 2020

5.0

We have been with BOSS for over 5 years, and they provide exceptional customer service. Anytime that we have identified an issue, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] has been available to troubleshoot and report bugs to have it fixed in their next software release. They appreciate feedback and work to keep their product up to date.

Pros

The ability to login to Support Central from anywhere at anytime and process tickets is something that we cannot live without in the new COVID19 world. We have not missed a beat, and our end users are receiving the support that they want and expect in a timely, professional manner because of it. The Dashboard area allows for the creation of widgets to monitor ticket assignments, counts and more on the fly. We utilize routing, templates and automatic responses to make sure support issues are addressed as quick as possible.

Cons

We are very pleased with the product. The only recommendation that I have is for them to invest in a training and tutorial area for technicians to easily reference to learn of new features or to learn about how to get the most out of the product.

### "A company that stands behind their software product"

November 3, 2025

5.0

It's been a solid experience. The support team answers all of our questions and issues quickly and professionally. Bossdesk is constantly making improvements in their software to make the entire experience, very smooth.

Pros

Bossdesk was very easy to implement, setup and get running. It allowed us to configure the ticketing system to meet our specific needs for our radiology practice.

Cons

Honestly, the only con I can think of is the need for some updated support documents, but their support staff answers any questions I have in a very timely manner so we're not stuck without the support documents.

SW was going end of life so we needed to replace it. After looking at more than a dozen companies, we went with Bossdesk as it really ticked off all of the boxes for our company.

### "BossDesk is good but can grow yet to be gold standard."

May 20, 2026

5.0

Overall, we have had a good experience in Bossdesk. Really wish something could be implemented however for dark mode users with copy paste between bossdesk, outlook, edge etc. Too many times information and emails copied have to be copied as plain text losing all previous formatting of the previously perfectly constructed information in the department drastically affecting the efficiency of Dark mode users. Some rely on Dark mode in order to avoid unnecessary eye strain throughout the work week.

Pros

Ticket Management and workflow automation and the ability to get a general idea of how widespread issues are based on reporting we can pull

Cons

I would like to see further configurability to boss desk workflows and the more placeholders for tasks and workflows to pull placeholder ticket information from and into tasks. We have a feature request submitted already.

### "Beta Ticketing System"

May 25, 2021

3.0

Support is sub par. I've worked with one of their high tier support agents to fix an issue with site agent. They ended up suggesting we upgrade the site agent to 2.0. I asked specifically if we need to back up any configurations before we do that and was told no that it should carry over. After the upgrade, none of the syncing configurations carried over. The support engineer had no way to recover this either. Also there is no documentation on the 2.0 agent in their own knowledgebase. I asked for the possibility of making CI's a required field and was just asked "Why? What if there wasn't a CI." I told them I have an n/a option as a CI item and want my techs to have to fill that in. This went no where.

Pros

The asset management portion is the best part of this ticketing system. The integration with AD and use of the Remote Agent make it easy to maintain inventory. The UI is better than some of the other ticketing systems I've used.

Cons

This ticketing system seems like it's still beta software. Many features available in other standard ticketing systems are not available in this. Only recently have they added time sheets, routing rules, and triggers. The reporting is poor as well with little options for custom reports.

Reason for choosing BOSSDesk

I did not get to choose this.

### "BossDesk at work"

February 25, 2026

5.0

Overall, I’d recommend it if you’re looking for a reliable help desk system without unnecessary complexity. It’s been a solid fit for our team so far.

Pros

Overall, I’ve had a pretty positive experience. The ticketing system is straightforward and doesn’t feel overly complicated like some other ITSM tools I’ve tried. It’s easy to track requests, assign tickets, and monitor response times. The workflow customization is a big plus we were able to adjust categories, priorities, and SLAs to match how our team actually works. As for training, it was surprisingly smooth. The sessions were practical and focused on real scenarios instead of just walking through features. Within a short time, most of our team felt comfortable navigating the system. The learning curve isn’t bad at all for day-to-day tasks, though some of the more advanced automation features took a bit longer to fully understand. If I had to point out a downside, I’d say the interface isn’t the most modern-looking compared to some newer platforms, but it definitely gets the job done.

Cons

Interface feels dated and advanced features take time to fully configure and reporting is limited ok

### "Local Gov Tech Review"

December 4, 2025

4.0

Overall, our organization is very happy with BOSSDesk and currently has no plans to move away from it.

Pros

The value is there if you are willing to put in the time to put it together. Don’t get me wrong — the out-of-the-box BOSSDesk is great, but it will need some customizing to fit your organization. The help desk is always helpful and will make improvements to make things more efficient.

Cons

The biggest con is the reporting — not that it isn’t there, but that it lacks power and customization. Our organization likes to use that data for budgets and downtime statistics, and BOSSDesk doesn’t make it easy to extract.

### "BOSSDesk, The BOSS of Service Management!"

October 31, 2025

5.0

The BOSSDesk technical team and staff are very responsive when you need their help, they have never failed in being there when you need them most.

Pros

BOSSDesk is intuitive and easy to use for the end user. As an administrator of the system, BOSSDesk is feature rich, allowing advanced workflows and functions.

Cons

Reporting capabilities within BOSSDesk were very limited when we first started using the product. They have since expended on some of their canned reports, but more importantly, they are working to integrate reporting access by using Power BI to allow development of your own reports.

### "BOSSDesk is a BOSS"

November 10, 2025

5.0

great product for tracking tickets and hardware throughout the enterprise and getting the ticket to the right person or persons.

Pros

ticketing process was very easy to get setup; feature set was loaded with tools we do use such as asset mgmt. but we might use 40% of total capabilities

Cons

pricing was a little high; some updates needed more updates and resulted int some downtime or lag :)

### "Excellent Value"

October 30, 2025

Any problem (very few) we've encountered was addressed and resolved immediately. I would rate our overall experience as, excellent.

Pros

The product does exactly what we need it to do...comprehensive ticket management, IT asset management, change management, integration with Entra ID/Azure, tasks, etc.

Cons

Not applicable. Features are being added, improved and refined on a regular basis. Reference/documentation materials are also good.

### "Golden Customer Service "

May 20, 2026

5.0

My experience is about 2 months in working tickets and using the service system, they are doing a great job and the customization to each organization's mission is great.

Pros

It is very expansive and the customer service with quick and thorough response is unmatched compared to other companies such as service now.

Cons

In my opinion more customization options for widgets and more available control over knowledge base formatting for clients, it does a great job but if we are the admin I would like some more control over formatting.

### "Improves effeciency, improves communication, shows the bosses we're busy."

December 4, 2025

5.0

It has improved our efficency in handling issues. It gives us the ability to demonstrate to our administration that we're swamped at times and need more resources.

Pros

Ease of use. Organizes our tasks and tickets. Makes communication with employees vastly better. Automates some very basic tickets that come in regularly. Security for it is great and love the SSO feature.

Cons

the search function. When searching for a particular ticket we sometimes have issues finding them. Would like to have a search field for the employee that entered the ticket where we could just select that employee from a list.

My overall experience with BOSSDesk is great. Support is quick to assist, and software is easy to use.

Pros

UI is neat and straightforward. Usually pretty easy to find stuff. Documentation on how to use BOSSDesk is great.

Cons

Lack of integration with apps. Such as with call software to automatically create tickets for calls received by the agent etc.

### "A good helpdesk solution for any size workplace."

November 20, 2024

5.0

So far, we have a good experience with the product and plan on continuing to use it for the foreseeable future.

Pros

We currently use the hosted version of BossDesk and it has worked very well. We can log in from anywhere and there is also an app for our phones. The UI is customizable with few limitations. The reporting functions are good. Inventory management (which we are just starting to use) is pretty good also, with APIs for Dell and Lenovo. The ticketing system is the "bread and butter" it works well and has decent workflow options.

Cons

We wish the "customer" UI was a little more customizable so we could add some info and change the sizing but that is not a deal breaker.

### "BOSSDesk, Nothing But Best"

November 19, 2024

5.0

My overall experiences with BOSSDesk has been wonderful during the time. We didn't get an upgrade until the Summer of 2024. I am retiring and haven't had the chance to really work with BOSSDesk. The time I worked with this upgrade, it has been very good for our Municipal Government.

Pros

This software helps the Service Desk to keep up the problems that the end users are having. It is equipped to run reports to keep up the problems that are occurring every cycle. It is storage software that keeps up with data when a user stated we didn't assist them and we have the information in the ticket on the steps with assisted with the user. I recommend this software to any company.

Cons

There are nothing least about this software. I didn't stay longer enough to use the upgrade of this software.

### "outstanding price for Service Desk solution"

November 22, 2022

5.0

The product has been in our portfolio for approximately 10 years and I would not change it out for another solution.

Pros

The portability and mobility of the platform are outstanding. The tools are integrated seamlessly. Each module is highly functional and makes service ticket resolution simple. Seasoned staff and new staff rarely struggle with the software. We have integrated the tool with many unconventional software applications and we allow outside vendors to interact with the platform as well.

Cons

We have very few issues with the product. It works as intended and the solution and they adds functionality often.

Pros

I like the customization options and flexibility the product gives. There are almost infinite ways to set it up and utilize the features. I like that customer comments go into the design and the workflows which enable customers to automate a lot of functions.

Cons

Easily accessible video tutorials or webinars would be helpful for beginner admins for setting up catalogs and workflows.

From the time we started till now the company has been great to work with. I have even had the \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] of the company reach out to me and ask how they were doing. They are very open to hearing from the customer and treat you like family.

Pros

Bossdesk has helped us keep better track of our ticket system and other items. They are always evolving and are open to end user input.

Cons

The only thing I can say that I don't like is that it is not free. But really the product is great.

We have had nothing but a very good experience with BOSSDesk. Easy to navigate, easy to manage, and if need help from BOSS they have a very fast responsive team who are very friendly and knowledgeable.

Pros

BOSSDESK is easy to utilize not just for administrators for our end users as well. It also provides reports to identify areas of improvement throughout our company.

Cons

Providing more reports automatically after we set them up would be a time saver but depends on the product your company has. We are in the process of updating.

January 8, 2020

We are upgrading our system to v4.0 web based an is awesome, I like it because is more easy friendly and better to manage. I had less trouble implementing some settings and creating the service catalogs. I think that this is great ticketing system. I never have issues with support, they always help me, especially \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\], he is very knowledgeable and vey kind. Kudos for \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]!

Pros

That now they have the web based version, which we are in the process of upgrading. Also, the service catalogs, routing rules, reports, and the way to mage all the settings, is way easier than before.

Cons

I didn't like the reporting system. I had to contact support, if I wouldn't be able to create my SQL queries.

Pros

Was extremely easy to implement and set up. Training and the migration process was simple and took no time to adapt. Boss support responds very fast and handles your problem(s) professionally and quickly. From an administrative standpoint, ticket tracking and handling cannot get any easier.

Cons

Would like the ability for the end user to have the option to close out the ticket themselves once the problem is solved/fixed.
