Likelihood to Recommend
Search function Global Synonyms Guided Helps. Documentation does a great job of describing features but lacks the big picture of how things relate to one another. Strong consulting partnership and customer focus. There are areas where they need to improve - Improve compliance & risk management plus Improve customer relations/service.

GLPI is
well suited to an on prem environment, I work for a company that values open-source
software and European solutions.
I have no
experience with GLPI cloud hosted solution or their support as we have in house
devs that fix and improve our installation, their community in the support forum
is excellent if you have a question or want advice on an issue.

Usability
No answers on this topic
We’ve used
GLPI for many years and the interface has gotten better with every major
release, the dashboard is easy to use and customizable.

With the
massive catalogue of plugins, you can change or add so many features and if you
have the right team, you can turn it into a completely unique piece of
software.

So, if the
default setup isn’t to your liking you can tweak it extensively.
