    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.

    We run a large environment where managing agents and clients would be difficult, but this software doesn't require either. We use it a lot from our iPhones accessing the software from anywhere in the office and even from home.

    Pros
    Halo Service Solutions
    • 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.

    • Network discovery--with no agents to manage is great and its very fast
    • Reporting--custom reports, charts and PDFs; the software also emails monthly reports automatically
    • Users only see the data and menus they need, so no training needed and the UI is focused
    • No clients to install; we can use it from any browser and from our cell phones
    • Upgrades are done quickly; we've never needed to get involved, as they do it for us

    Cons
    Halo Service Solutions
    • 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

    Halo Service Solutions
    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.

    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.

    Return on Investment
    Halo Service Solutions
    • 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.
