    DevRev
    DevRev is well suited for both multi-team and single-team environments, and teams can realize meaningful value even without having product, engineering, and support all onboarded at the same time. Its strength is clearest when used by customer-facing and delivery-adjacent teams that benefit from shared context and tighter feedback loops. However, DevRev is less appropriate out of the box for teams that sit outside those core functions, as the platform’s terminology and workflows are opinionated toward product, engineering, and support use cases. Without deeper custom object support and greater flexibility in redefining terms and processes, it has been challenging to demonstrate value to those teams and to help them move away from established tools and ways of working.

    The system is really good at helping manage first-line requests and incidents. There are workflows that can be set up on templates to give direction to the team and help ensure that all the correct procedures are followed. There are some limitations with the system when it comes to Problem and Change management, as it is very ingrained with the normal ticket system. This can lead to a "clunky" change management process.

    • Help Desk Ticketing works well and integrates easily with e-mail. IT staff is immediately notified when a new ticket is created.
    • Device management and inventory is easily tracked within SysAid. A full report is easily generated for a device detailing hardware and software specifics.
    • SysAid Copilot AI is phenomenal. It has been designed with the end user in mind. The user can speak to the prompt in natural language and expect a custom response according to their incident or service needs.

    Cons
    DevRev
    • The onboarding experience could be improved for teams that are not directly implementing DevRev, as they are often introduced to a powerful platform without enough guided context and can feel overwhelmed early on.
    • Creating and managing objects, dashboards, and other configurations would benefit from more robust desktop-based creation tools, as current workflows can feel constrained or unintuitive at scale. Use industry standard language and report building.
    • While regressions are rarely critical, the frequency of small UI issues, such as broken date selectors or text visibility problems caused by theming, creates unnecessary friction and frustration for users.

    • The Help tool could use some refining. Particularly indicating the order in which steps must be done. A clear example is the creation of customized fields or lists.
    • Formatting of the ticket. There is no possibility to create dynamic tables, use more than one column. I would want to have more flexibility without having to pay for Professional Services

    Here’s your text in natural, professional English:Currently, we are continuously improving our internal AI chatbot within SysAid by feeding our datapool on a daily basis. This is making a real impact on our IT team, as the knowledge base keeps growing and allows us to resolve common incidents and service requests much faster.In addition to that, SysAid helps us manage software licenses and gives us clear visibility of our actual annual costs, which is very useful for tracking upcoming renewals.On the other hand, we would like to see improvements in the reporting area. The interface there feels more basic compared to the rest of the platform and doesn’t offer the same level of depth as other sections.That said, we are really looking forward to seeing how the new Connect module evolves.

    DevRev provides strong support through a dedicated key account manager and tech team, making the experience seamless. There might be hurdles, but they get resolved with team support. The tool is also very easy to use, with the user able to customize and use various features as needed.

    Whilst it delivers on most of the features it comes with, I feel Change Management needs a complete re-do as it is really complicated, and think it should be made to be straightforward. For the free services of their Market Place, they should develop a platform where one can just browse for the script (downloaded) and apply the patch, without having to go into various places in code to activate the service. or at least, build the integrations into the system and have [a] section under settings, or even straight from the Market Place, where one can just enable the service, and if required, be prompted to input additional information, including credentials.

    Another of the benefits of sysaid is that it is highly available when working in on-premise environments.The only times the system is down is when a restart of the services is required to add a new feature. Apart from that, we have not had any problems.In the case of the cloud, the only condition I have seen where sysaid is not available is because the internet link is down or damaged.

    I have no functionality, reliability, or speed concerns with DevRev. In the past, we raised a few latency issues that were fixed within days by the engineering team. The DevRev team were incredibly thankful for these being raised.

    In the case of system performance, I have seen that no matter the number of assets and users, Sysaid responds in the same way and at the same speed. The reports that are scheduled do not have any details because they arrive directly to your email. In the same way, when it is integrated with other systems, for example through the API or by email, we have not seen any failure due to the integration. It works very well with or without integrations.

    SysAid support is fast and effective. They support their own product, so they know it well. I can expect a response to my request in less than 24 hours and often in less than an hour. Their sales, customer support, and technical support staff are experts in the area of the support request ticket, so we seldom are transferred to another support agent. Their system is well designed and one of the best of all the applications we use.

    The training I received was very good, they gave me tasks to carry out and then they checked what I had done.It was gratifying that the instructor noticed that I had made very fast progress because I had done the implementation myself and it was very fast. At least I remember that after 5 days I had already finished almost 90% of all the implementation tasks.

    It is recommended that it be synchronized with the active directory for a better experience, also using the network scanning tools are very useful both to maintain your hardware and software inventory. See all the documentation found on the portal where they suggest good practices for the use of SysAid and exploit it from the first time

    While Freshdesk and Kapture are great tools, they lack advanced features such as agent assist and AI summarisation. Dedicated support at these companies also becomes an issue, as no dedicated team is allotted due to frequent changes. Also, these tools are not DIY kind and require external help for use and excellence.

    When we purchase it, the plans were different and mainly we acquired lifetime licenses. in the past year, we migrated to the cloud version. In both cases, the pricing structure was accurate, although they could provide some extra flexibility to pay for exactly what we need in the business.

    DevRev is incredibly flexible - while we started with a support and product move to the tool - Engineering, Finance, People, and our Account Management team quickly followed. The best part about these teams being in DevRev is tying everything back to the customer and being able to build intuitive, flexible workflows for any need.
