Chose Freshservice
We found Freshservice to have the best balance between pricing and features. While you don't get nearly as many possibilities as with ServiceNow (e.g., the ability to build nearly any type of workflows from end-to-end), the solution is quite user-friendly with not much of a …

Accessing and Managing Virima is easy. Great support team very responsive,but i would like to have more visibility into the product management space. Nevertheless its a considerable tool that does what it was deployed to do.

Freshworks Inc
Ticket management is so well put together! It's easy to create, work and wrap up tickets in an efficient manner. Inventory management is helpful and provides us info that we need on the fly to help our customers better. Issue management other than IT, we rolled Freshservice out to several departments where the workflows and structure were well suited to handle their issues easily and efficiently. I struggle to think of a scenario where it is less appropriate, unless it's where the users just won't use it!

Cons
Freshworks Inc
  • Once a ticket is resolved and closed if a user responds back it is automatically opened back up. The toggle button for this feature is all or nothing.
  • When the client is installed on the user end not having the software assign an automatic asset tag number. Maybe leaving that field blank or creating a feature where you can turn this on or off.
  • I really can think of any, I really have no complaints about the software

Usability
Freshworks Inc
On the I.T. side, the time to ramp up and understand how FreshService operates only took a few hours. After that, it was off to the races with configuration and customization. From the start, with minimal assistance, our end users found FreshService to be incredibly intuitive. At launch, we expected most to submit tickets via email, however, our analytics has shown that end-users actually prefer the portal for managing their I.T. tickets.

Support Rating
Freshworks Inc
In general, the support was provided in a timely matter. But if you need a better support - there are more expensive plans available with premium support. As for the support we requested - any bugs were fixed quickly. The things nice to have were addressed slowly or never - but this is because of our plan))

think of what you want to do with FreshService : a clean start or a migration. Migration can be done with csv files, it's easy to do but you need to test it first.

SolarWinds Service Desk helpdesk ticketing system it not as easy to use. The integration is not as good as Freshservice. Solarwinds helpdesk tickets does not show related issues as well to help resolve issues. It does not have contract tracking to assist with license expiration. Asset tracking falls short within Solarwinds. As well as automated process and integration with Azure and Domain services.
