Sanjay Mukhopadhyay - PeerSpot reviewer
The solution comes with a host of features for hyper-automation
The initial setup is a mix of complex and straightforward because it depends on which modules you are implementing for ITSM. There are a lot of complex workflows and SLAs around the workflow. We have to configure much more complex things than just Patch Management and Endpoint. For example, it might not take even two weeks to roll out APM for 10,000 assets, but it will take three months to roll out ITSM for 10,000 assets and an equal number of users. That's because the modules you were implementing require much more knowledge, and there are a lot of complexities and nitty-gritties inside the tool which need to be understood. ITSM skill sets are in demand because reaching an L3 certification is not easy. We have those certified skill sets. That's why we're able to roll out at a fast pace. With standard documentation available, it's very clear for a certified resource to understand step-wise implementation. For every step, there is a "build and test" approach. It's a continuous integration. You follow this process, so you don't suddenly realize there are many issues at the end of setup. You have to keep testing each module and process as you roll out. It's not complex, but you need to know the product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is easy to set up."
"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."
"The integrations are quite simple and clear."
"They allow us to automate ticketing processes and create requests more efficiently, improving our overall support operations."
"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."
"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution."
"The main feature for us is incident management, as it assists me in knowing my assignments, because we have group assignments. When we go to the group assignment they can assign it to me there."
"The solution is easy to use and has a user-friendly interface"
"This solution has helped us a great deal in project management tracking and forecasting."
"It has improved our work in a number of ways. First, it has made everything much faster. Before Jira Service Management, it could take weeks to resolve a ticket."
"One of the valuable features is that an automatic response or action can be taken on tickets."
"Apart from ticket management and workflow, the Kanban board is one of the helpful tools in Jira."
"It makes the IT department more transparent and helps the employees."
"This is a flexible tool for logging and tracking issues efficiently."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it is user-friendly."
"It is much more controlled and allows for different kinds of customization that we can plan and implement based on the project requirements."
 

Cons

"The patching for non-Windows OSes such as Linux is poor."
"There's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved."
"I have had to open a few support tickets with the HEAT Service Management. They are very good but there are some areas that they could improve on."
"Sometimes I can't get the reports that I want until I go to the manager. They need to put more into the new reports. The standard reports are great, but there do not communicate as much."
"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."
"Support needs improvement in terms of responsiveness and timeliness."
"There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond."
"They could provide product integration with popular platforms."
"Jira Service Management should be more user-friendly."
"The initial setup of JIRA Service Management can be complex for new users. There is a lot of configuration."
"The support we received was not fully provided at that time."
"In-built chat is missing in JIRA Service Management."
"JIRA Service could benefit from improvements to its voice support."
"We faced challenges with integration for different frameworks like TestComplete."
"An improvement they could add is a better management dashboard. We only use the dashboard for the administration mode. We have a dashboard that reports the state of bugs or requirements. However, customers can only view requests that they made. We are not able to share a dashboard with our manager level customers to show them all of the requests in a quick dashboard."
"I think the performance can be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I came to know from my team members that my company used to operate ServiceNow but shifted to Ivanti Neurons for ITSM due to its low licensing prices."
"If you want to add more users who can handle support there will be additional fees. What we call our extensions, we need to pay more for. They tell us that we need to acquire more licenses or something like that. I think it's very expensive, because in terms the pula, our local currency, it's about 20,000 per license for each user. It is an annual fee."
"The product is affordable for small businesses."
"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"We may upgrade the license that we have. The license that we currently have is good for 500 agents, and it's not full yet."
"I am using the free version, but my clients are paying for it. When they start, they evaluate it for 30 days, and after seeing the value, they move to its paid version."
"It depends on the number of users but it starts at $20 per month per user. I would rate them a three out of five for pricing."
"For the people like us, the lower the price, the better. But when compared to other competitors, I think it's Jira's price is okay."
"Licensing can become quite expensive."
"It's not really expensive, especially when you compare to ServiceNow or other solutions, and it's not expensive to maintain."
"The license we use is on a yearly basis. As a Solution Partner, we were using the free one and were using the free plugins. We were also giving our own plugins to the Atlassian Solution Partners for free. We don't pay anything to Atlassian."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
