JitBit Help Desk vs. SherpaDesk

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.

[It's] well suited for cloud support applications as there's no installation or maintenance required.

• 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.

• Its ability to switch between tickets, assets, etc., is a little clunky. A static menu bar would be helpful.
• The ability to see the latest update in the ticket view.

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.

When looking for solutions for our business, I personally looked at Aautotask. I am not the decision maker so I don't know what my boss looked at in full. Autotask seems good. It looked like it got a bit complicated and may be for very large enterprise customers. Just lots of features that we don't need.

• 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.

• As a single freelance consultant Sherpadesk has exceptional ROI because it's free but if my company had more support people I would definetly go with SherpaDesk again.
