How easy is it to use and deploy, and requires almost zero prior experience with any ITSM platform. The interface is very easy to navigate through, very clean.
It has a clean and intuitive interface. I love the audit trail and activity history on tickets, given that we are a team of 10 and often need to reassign tickets through different teams. The platform provides a solid foundation for ITIL-aligned processes without being overly complex.
Ease of use is the first thing that comes to mind. Also, like with a cimple mail forward quick action you can create an email to ticket for all of those users that try to get around the ticketing system by emailing you directly.
The main drawback is the limited flexibility when it comes to advanced customization and some complex workflows. Compared to other ITSM tools, some configurations may feel hard to use, especially when it comes to reporting, automation and UI configurations.
Their customer support, the inability to track asset loans with automated overdue notifications to the end user, the reporting functionality is not as adaptive as I would like
I would like to see some MS Teams integrations, even though you can build them yourself with automation platforms it would be nice to have some of this native.
