Comprehensive workflows and data views have supported complex teams but still need cost improvements
JIRA Service Management is costly. The pricing structure needs improvement. When I add some plugins, I have to pay the cost for every user whether they are using it or not. For smaller companies, the detailed workflow editing and the kind of details that JIRA Service Management provides would be complex. For startups and smaller companies, JIRA Service Management would be complex. The cloud offering is easier because I don't have to manage the infrastructure. There are two templates of the project: company-managed and team-managed. Team-managed is a newer feature, which is good for startup-kind companies where they don't need control over data from multiple projects displaying in one dashboard. For startups, JIRA Service Management is somewhat complex with its schemes and everything. Capacity management should be improved in terms of additional features in the next release of JIRA Service Management.

Boosts efficiency and significantly reduces operational costs
They handle all the training and implementation work, making it very easy to use. It integrates into Slack and connects with ServiceNow effortlessly. The only limitation is getting all the service requests or features in ServiceNow that it can learn. Anyone can use it through Slack by simply asking questions to receive answers. We partnered with them to build a Workday integration for requesting and checking time off. They are expanding across the enterprise as a co-pilot, integrating with HR, finance, Keeper, and Salesforce. We also use their communications module, which allows scheduled communications to be sent through Slack or Teams. These communications are personalized for each recipient. When comparing email engagement rates of 3% to Moveworks' 12%, the platform reaches approximately four times more people.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Jira Service Management is flexible. It is easy to navigate without requiring extra learning. The user experience has been good."
"JIRA SD also helps for much better feedback on the work being done. All colleagues can see what is happening."
"The dashboards in Jira have been the most useful feature."
"We can track, monitor, and get all the details we need from the end-user's point of view for any service request."
"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 SLA, speed, the comments from agents' side, and the dashboard for agents are the most valuable features."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The centralized feature allows us to track test cases and integrate with automation and bug fixing."
"The solution saves us approximately three-quarters of a million dollars per year."
"Moveworks has reduced employee time because initially, employees used to spend so much time going to the third party to do all those jobs, and now they can simply do it via Otter, which is Moveworks, and this has saved much time and provided accurate results as well."
"Moveworks is a very good platform if you utilize it well."
 

Cons

"Include a split configuration in a layer part to allow cloud services to have almost full admin rights in SaaS."
"We have tried exporting some of the test cases into Jira from Excel. The interface for that isn't very user-friendly."
"There should be some AI integrations now as AI is in the picture."
"JIRA Service Management could include more AI features."
"The licensing model could be improved."
"JSM's ability to handle large volumes of emails isn't great."
"The price is a point of contention for me. It does overall work out as a significant amount of money that will be spent over a shorter period of time."
"It is pretty complex to move between the test environment and the production environment. There is potential for improvement."
"Moveworks can definitely be improved. Currently, we have to do most of the things on our own, such as creating UI and APIs for how things will work."
"More use cases can be added to the agent marketplace and the YAML or the DSL methods can be simplified, adding more methods to make it easier for us to create compound actions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We need a license because we have a higher number than the free part."
"The price of JIRA Service Management could be reduced."
"Do not forget to calculate add-on costs. These cost a percentage of the JIRA purchasing costs and are based on the number of JIRA users."
"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."
"It costs around $150 to $200 per user."
"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."
"Buying a software solution is only a half part of the solution (or even less). You need to optimize usage of the software by hiring professionals who will help you to make the most of the software, especially in the beginning."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, where one is low price, and ten is high price. It's competitively priced."
