Has helped streamline ticketing and change management while offering clear documentation support
Documentation and learning materials are available for Ivanti Neurons for ITSM, and if you check the vendor sites, you will find documents for each feature. I believe that short videos should be created and uploaded for newcomers to learn quickly since time can be limited. If a user believes in Ivanti, they should also believe in all its products including Ivanti Neurons for ITSM and Neurons because they are genuinely putting in hard work. This is reflected in the documentation, though I suggest they work on creating more videos. Other than that, you will find everything you need in the community site and documentation site. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Ivanti Neurons for ITSM an 8 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"Primarily, I believe the focus lies on discovery, workflow configuration, and automation."
"What I appreciate about Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is its comprehensive change request management system, which we utilize for server patching, workstation patching, BIOS updates, and driver updates, enabling us to have CAB meetings to discuss changes and approve them before implementation."
"It is easy to set up."
"Ivanti Neurons allows me to adjust our workflow according to our needs."
"The solution is easy to use and has a user-friendly interface"
"I like Cloud Neurons. Since it's a cloud version, it's much easier to enhance productivity because it collects all the information automatically."
"It's a good experience."
"Jira Service Management has a workflow feature you can configure for your specific requirements. It also lets you efficiently manage service requests with team members."
"Apart from ticket management and workflow, the Kanban board is one of the helpful tools in Jira."
"Service Management is great if you're an Atlassian shop already using JIRA for the development team and you want another tool for help desk ticketing. When it's all under the same umbrella, I can easily take a ticket from the help desk and move it to the development team. You can't beat that integration between two products."
"The centralized feature allows us to track test cases and integrate with automation and bug fixing."
"Easy to use and user-friendly."
"Automation capabilities allow for automatic ticket creation using monitoring tools."
"We can track, monitor, and get all the details we need from the end-user's point of view for any service request."
 

Cons

"The user interface must be made simpler and more effective."
"There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond."
"Configuration requirements are extensive, even in basic Service Desk processes."
"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."
"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow."
"They could provide product integration with popular platforms."
"Perhaps one area that could see enhancement is at the hardware level, particularly regarding endpoint control."
"The initial setup of JIRA Service Management can be complex for new users. There is a lot of configuration."
"As a consultant, I have used the support. Some of the support I have received has been good and other times it could improve."
"The solution needs to be integrated better with Office X5."
"I would like to see the user interface changed, it is not very user-friendly, and it transitions workflows."
"If I need a new feature, JIRA requires me to pay for all users when only specific people use that add-on. I should not have to pay for everyone, so this is an area for improvement."
"JIRA Service Management should make reporting easier. I would like something integrated with DevOps tools."
"JSM's ability to handle large volumes of emails isn't great."
"It has change management and incident management, but CMDB is not there. It's also not as user-friendly as ServiceNow."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is affordable for small businesses."
"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 price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"JIRA Service Desk has different pricing as it is based on agents. On average, the price is about $300 per agent."
"The price of the solution is becoming expensive and it should be reduced."
"JIRA Service Management's pricing is pretty decent compared to competitors. I rate the pricing an eight to nine on a scale of one to ten."
"JSM's pricing is one of the best, starting at around $10 per user, per month, with volume discounts available."
"The price for JIRA Service Management is reasonable and cheaper than other ITSM solutions, but the licensing model is different, so you cannot compare it with other solutions. Overall, the pricing for the solution is acceptable."
"Costs are about $50 per user per year. JIRA is sold in user tiers of 25, 50, 100, 250, 500, 2000, 10,000, and unlimited users. It is bad when you have 51 users then the price is based on that 100 user tier. Users at 100 will be the most cost effective."
"Right now, there are only two of us who are both agents on the help desk and developers. We might be on the free version because we're less than three agents or users. I'm looking at Zephyr tests, which have a $10 a month flat rate, so right now, it is $10 a month. There are lots of add-ons. They do a free version, a standard version, and a premium version. In the last company, we started on $50 a month. By the time I left, we were paying $4,500 a month. That was mainly because we had 100 users on Confluence. I bought an add-on for Jira software for which we had 10 users, and that was $5 per user per month. It was costing me $500 a month, whereas it should only be $50 a month. I don't know if licensing fee has changed. I'd like our whole company to use it, but the big problem is the licensing because the Confluence side is what is really useful, but if I add 30 users to Confluence and then buy an extension for Jira software, I've got to pay for 30 licenses, even though I've only got two users in Jira software. It is the one big disadvantage of cloud software. You always have to pay for the number of seats regardless of which product you are on. This will probably severely limit how many people would use it because I'm not going to start paying $10 per user per month for a Jira software add-on when there are only two people using it."
"I price of JIRA Service Management is reasonable."
