Ivanti LANDESK Service Desk (discontinued) vs. JitBit Help Desk

I would recommend this product to anyone looking for an ITSM solution. Overall the team is very easy to work with and the solution is on par with others in the market. We have no complaints about the product and we are scaling it to meet our growing needs.

If your budget is really tight, then JitBit is not for you. It's kind of pricey. That said, JitBit HelpDesk is very robust--we've never had one second of downtime in my two years of using it. It depends on what's important to you. If you need rock-solid Help Desk and stellar, trouble-free performance, then JitBit it. If not, there are alternatives that are much less expensive. The cloud version might be less expensive for companies that don't need an on-premise solution.

• Fantastic ticketing system to keep track of old conversations from clients.
• Fantastic analytics and metric tracking.
• Fantastic for sharing relationships with a customer. Generally, this would be a salesperson sharing an onboarding with a support person, but I think you could get creative with it. JitBit is very flexible.
• Super easy to learn and use. If you can use your email, you can use JitBit.

Support system is very good. I believe they have done an excellent job supporting our questions

They only system that I can compare against Service Desk is ConnectWise. With that in mind, I definitely see that Service Desk is much easier to maintain, design and improve. The visual representation of processes does assist with seeing how it's working. However, the window design is still severely lacking in comparison.

JitBit just had the feature set at the cost point we were willing to spend. Nothing against the other products, but this one just fit our model better.

• Our Help Desk agents have been able to streamline the incident process and we were able to create template for common types of calls like lock-outs and password resets. This has saved the help desk a ton of time and helps resolve customer issues more quickly
• The change management module allowed us to completely transform our process. It is now simple and intuitive to enter a change and have it approved and worked.
• The CMDB module has allowed us to begin tracking our assets in one place and seeing how they relate to each other. This is something that was not available prior and it has streamlined our organization.

• JitBit has neither had a positive nor a negative effect on our ROI. The reason is that we had to have a Help Desk solution that is secure and well-supported.
• JitBit does cost real money. The least expensive on-premise option is $1,699, which might have a negative impact on your budget, but I'd have to say that it's worth it--at least for us.
• Trouble-free, practically maintenance-free, Help Desk software has a positive impact on our technician time spent on it.
