Anneri Van Der Merwe - PeerSpot reviewer
Impressive scalability and reliability for seamless service management
One area where I believe there's room for improvement in the 4me system is the absence of an asset discovery tool. While it does offer integration options with external tools for this purpose, it would be highly advantageous if it either developed its own asset discovery tool or incorporated an existing one directly into the platform.
Bruno Clemente - PeerSpot reviewer
A highly scalable solution that has good reporting features
TOPdesk has features that allow only the financial managers to approve or deny the company's dealings With TOPdesk, we can concentrate all the requests from the company to only one system, and then we can manage the team's productivity. The most valuable feature of TOPdesk is the reports. We…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I like their request management as well as their project management."
"The multi-tenancy architecture, both in terms of functionality and reporting, is the best feature. It is a really well-thought, designed, and developed part of this product."
"It offers a comprehensive set of features without requiring additional payments for each feature."
"The solution is highly stable."
"Its ITSM approach is quite useful."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the ticketing feature."
"The most valuable feature of TOPdesk is its ease of use if you have implemented it in the right way. If you're not implementing it in the right way, then it's very difficult."
"Change management is the most critical feature."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the incident management module."
"When it comes to implementing new features, they listen to what their customers want via a suggestion forum that they have."
"This solution has provided me with a well-defined process and interaction, compared to my previous tool, GLPI."
"It is an easy-to-use solution."
 

Cons

"Asset Discovery is a feature that should be added."
"We're still biased towards our previous, more mature product. 4me still needs to reach that level of maturity."
"We would like to be able to customize and brand the solution, or at least the majority of its features and dashboards, particularly those that will be used by a large number of people."
"One area where I believe there's room for improvement in the 4me system is the absence of an asset discovery tool."
"An operator is also a user but requires creating two different records."
"All companies have processes that need to be adjusted. When you have a change, you need to name it, and many companies have a set of changes you can use. It would be helpful if there were more space in TOPdesk to name the change or use metadata to record the kinds of changes."
"The solution should be made more user-friendly."
"The solution's change management could be better."
"If I open a ticket on the infrastructure team, I can't move it to the financial team for them to manage the ticket."
"This solution is modular so you only buy what you need, but I prefer what some companies are doing where they include everything in the package."
"One of the disadvantages of TOPdesk is the reporting tool. It is very poor and not in real-time. You do not always receive the correct information."
"It is time-consuming to add new users."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is expensive."
"It is the most affordable because it is priced per month per user."
"The licensing costs on the website are about $60 for pay-as-you-go. And then it decreases based on volume discounts or something."
"This pricing falls on the lower end of the spectrum, making it a cost-effective option."
"Compared to other products in this segment, I think that they are priced well and not too expensive."
"There are three fee options to choose from for a company and these options compared to market prices are very high. For example, if I use one of the first options for 10 assets, then it costs 20,000 Euros. If you went to competitors, then you pay less."
"The solution is inexpensive compared to competitors."
"TOPdesk's pricing is cheaper than Jira's."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable and not expensive."
"The cost of the solution on a yearly basis is $20,000. Technical support is not extra. It's included in the yearly cost. Updates are also included. The solution is good at keeping its product up to date."
