Prominent pros & cons

PROS

ConnectWise PSA effectively manages projects from start to finish.
It supports seamless search functionality with customizable parameters.
The platform offers comprehensive features for VARs and MSPs, including ticketing, billing, and invoicing.
ConnectWise PSA is stable and well-integrated, facilitating the invoicing process.
Its ease of reporting is beneficial for performance assessment in management meetings.

CONS

It needs to be easier to share tickets between users who need to work together.
Sometimes it is a little bit slow, which is the only complaint about it.
If 40 tickets get generated without proper tagging, they must be reassigned individually to a new company.
Custom reporting needs improvement.
Tracking inventory or the way it tracks products is not very good.

I also like ConnectWise's ability to set up queries. I can set up all these different queries that look for specific things and end up with a list of results, like feedback from the client or the ticket status.

The initial setup isn't too difficult.

I like the search function up top where if you know what you're searching for, you can find it pretty quickly. Because you've got the option to change what the search parameters are, whether you're searching for a project, quote, ticket, or an invoice, you can kind of pick and choose what you're looking for.

The most valuable feature is the management of projects from start to finish.

It's a pretty simple web interface. The rules engine was really easy to set up, and it ingests emails very well.

All the features of ConnectWise Manage are valuable. However, ticketing, customer management, customer communication, technician efficiency, calendars, coding, billing, invoicing, and contract management are available. It's a complete solution. Additionally, the company is responsive with the ability to progress or make necessary changes happen.

The product has been pretty stable so far.

The search function is really good. To have a single place where we have the account information stored is probably most valuable.

We're using the solution for ticketing and billing, and those features are useful.

All other ticket systems can search previous tickets, whether they were homegrown in Oracle or something else. I'm talking about searching the actual contents of the discussions in the ticket. In ConnectWise, you can only search the summaries. It's ridiculous.

A lot of times, it'll take a couple of moments for things to go through. If you're not patient about it, it may seem like things aren't working.

If you've got 40 tickets that come in, that get generated, that don't get properly tagged with the company, you can't just check them all and reassign them to another company. You have to individually reassign each one of those tickets to a new company.

Has a very outdated 90s interface and not all features are accessible via the mobile app.

The speed could be better, and the reporting could be a lot better.

ConnectWise Manage can improve third-party integrations and the UI. The UI is good but it could improve in the graphics.

The custom reporting needs to be improved.

There should be some improvements to the interface. It is not completely intuitive. When you click in a blank area of a screen, you'll find some options.

The technical support of ConnectWise PSA is not very good.
