Service Desk (Legacy) Likes & Dislikes

Like

It did what it was supposed to in tracking tickets. Also it was easy for IT to understand and had enough functions to get us by.

Like

provides basic functionality out of the box.

Like

Ability for anybody to create queries, export the output to Excel and keep the query as a favourite - saves the admin team a lot of time providing ad-hoc reports.

Dislike

The learning curve was a bit steep for some people but nothing too difficult.

Dislike

Customization can be painful

Dislike

Lack of form builder for self-service in Landesk ServiceDesk. This is rectified in ISM.

    Sound application for the ITSM purpose

    Jul 9, 2020
    Incident and change management solutions are well defined in the system. The product comes with preset which can be customized with minimal efforts. API offers data input from external sources which can be used to define the initial set up. IT service management modules are conceptualized based on ITIL and provide a large degree of agility. SLA/OLA tracking is in-built; only time threshold settings are required.

    Highly flexible product with sensible pricing and support.

    Quality of consultants and support has been excellent and the product was exactly what we needed when implemented, simple to use, easy to implement and quick to adapt as needed. 5 years on and, as we have expanded, outsourced more and looking for ways to automate we are finding the self-service solution slightly limiting and we are about to migrate onto ISM. Again we are finding support from Ivanti excellent and the product itself is highly flexible and offers the same functionality as far more pricy solutions that I have used in the past (Remedy and SNow).

    Easy implementation with a world of possibilities

    We worked with Ivanti's professional services to walk us through the implemenation and we would highly recommend this. We had a dedicated technician on a week long conference call to get the system up and running. The professional services was extremely valuable and had a clear implementation plan laid out. In addition the product offers a wide array of flexibility without being overly complicated.

    Integration in the Ivanti family is seamless and third party connectors are near perfect

    Ivanti makes any step in the process easy to communicate, understand and implement. The technical know-how and ability to intergrate seamlessly with other Ivanti products is the prime reason to go with this product suite. I think that the representatives from sales to technical to marketing all understand the customer needs at an individual level and really make it known that you are important to their success as well.
