Likelihood to Recommend If you want a value for money full system, which you could use out of the box then this is the one for you. If you want a system that can take care of tasks then this is the one for you. [HaloITSM] is easily scalable with very competitive pricing. New features are added regularly based on best practices and customer requirements.
Read full review We have been able to integrate our ISM system with Active Directory using API calls to automate user account creation and user Moves, Adds, and Changes. This has helped us make the employee onboarding and offboarding process much more efficient and less error prone. We cut down on mundane work for the account creation team and freed them to do more tier 2 and 3 tasks. Where the system has been less appropriate for us is trying to integrate non-IT service processes. We haven't gotten a lot of buy-in from groups that aren't used to using an IT related system to receive tasks. It will take some time for us to make a more user friendly, non-IT, Support role.
Read full review Pros The Self Service Portal is very easy to configure and the end-users have commented on how easy it is to log and manage their own calls. Asset and User Management works very well and it is simple to link them to tickets. Looking up ticket history for particular Users or Assets is also very useful. The ability [to] use different ticket types and templates is fantastic. The added ability to merge and clone tickets is also a great benefit. Read full review Very good at allowing a service line to configure the product to suit its needs. This is important so as to not have to craft operations around the technology, but the other way around! A high level of flexibility to implement a great deal of automation. The product gives end users access to pre-defined or custom business rules and workflows as well as the ability to implement other forms of time savers! There is a very comprehensive Help guide for end users and administrators alike. Quite often I have found the most obscure 'How To's' in this guide rather than needing to call into support or search out information on the Ivanti site. Read full review Cons Support for M365 \ Power Platform, Power Bi reporting in particular Feel the asset management side of the product is not as good as the ticket management Support is excellent but maybe an old school user forum where other admins can share and discuss ideas Read full review Had a little trouble sending some files remotely a few times, but it could have been on our end. The system was a little different from what we were used to. We had to drill down into the program a bit more than expected. We couldn't tell if some of our older machines were having problems with it, or if it was the program itself. Read full review Likelihood to Renew We are fully committed to this system. After customizing it for the past 3 years we have no plans to change

Read full review There's two sides to answering this question. From an Agent/Admin perspective, it's great. You can do a lot of really cool things and have a lot of options and tools available to you. From a customer perspective, you're not quite as spoilt for choice. Ivanti has been working on and improving their new mobile-responsive customer interface but in doing so have really limited the features they allow admins to configure. We've found this limiting but not unworkable. I hope this continues to improve.
Read full review Support Rating I've made overall positive experiences with the Halo support. The only thing to increase would be some follow ups on feature requests. If someone would reach out to me, telling me wheter or not my feature request will be considered in future updates or not.
Read full review Support has been amazing. They are knowledgeable, respectful, efficient, and friendly. When something doesn't go according to plan, they go above and beyond to make sure your issues are resolved. I have come to think of them as an extension of my team!
Read full review Alternatives Considered HaloITSM offered the highest level of functionality, available as standard, at our price level. Halo support during our trial period was second to none and unrestricted. We had a list of deciding factors covering the most important areas of functionality and HaloITSM covered all of these.
Read full review Ivanti is far more user friendly than ManageEngine, and has more features than
Jira Service Management. It takes longer to get used to Ivanti because of the extra features, but once you're on board with how it works and how to make changes, the possibilities and configuration options are almost endless
Read full review Contract Terms and Pricing Model On-premises vs being in Ivanti's Cloud is about 3-5 times the cost.
Read full review Professional Services There are many companies for you to choose from. Many have expertise in specific areas. I highly recommend making sure you find one that can work for your specific project needs and then be willing to go in a different direction if needed. There are a few companies that have the personnel to cover everyone's basis but truthfully not many.
Read full review Return on Investment It enabled us to allow our Service Desk Staff to work from home during COVID and this has continued ever since. We have halved our average resolution time. Some of the automation processes, when implemented alongside the MS Power Platform, have saved approximately 30 hours a month. This includes times when customers were unable to access the system until they had been trained. This is now automated via Halo and they get sent to on-demand training, instead of waiting up to 3 weeks for the next scheduled session. Read full review In the Classroom Support department, this has provided a quick access system available via tablet for technicians on the go and has improved response time. In the Helpdesk, this has assisted in the automation of repetitive tasks and assisted with providing better accountability for the completion of an assigned task. Read full review ScreenShots
