    It is best suited for an MSP but it is also best not suited for an MSP. It is well suited for folks with a minimal knowledge of a client and are attempting to learn what they can. Perhaps just bumbling about and can find the same thing consistently. At my particular work, we pay somebody full time to manage the system. I feel this is unnecessary.

    If you need users to reset passwords but don't have VPN access to your network, this is one of the best options. It also works very well for helping a locked-out user, provided they have taken the time to set up their account. Then, of course, they need to remember the details, but when they have dotted all of the i's, it just works.

    Pros
    Kaseya
    • The UI has been set up perfectly, there is a sub-menu for every possible bit of information you wish to store.
    • There are a number of excellent features such as the autohiding passwords and quick searching from anywhere on the page.
    • The recent addition of the IT Glue is also an excellent feature, it features online self-guided courses to become a certified IT Glue user.
    • You can create and group custom documents together.
    • IT Glue can be integrated with a number of platforms such as Autotask.
    • IT Glue also integrates well with N-Central to automatically populate the configurations tab with all the relevant Workstation, Printer, and Server information making client on-boarding a breeze.

    Cons
    Kaseya
    • Like many other MSPs we had the majority of our SOPs and KBs in Word docs. The best case scenario would be to simply drop those files directly into ITG without having to import them into the ITG documentation format. The import function is so broken as to not be an option because it completely ruins formatting and tends to drop images. Thus we have to manually copy/paste text and individually upload each image.
    • They marketed the product as having true branding but that is stretching the truth. SSL is not an option so client-facing documents will give security errors in browsers. ITG does not appear to be concerned about this even though security is a major concern for all MSPs.

    • Assist with post-implementation reviews to ensure we configured everything correctly
    • Better integration with mobile devices such as an app to change M365 passwords for our mobile-only users
    • It would be great if password changes of mobile users updates the AD so these accounts don't reflect as dormant AD accounts.

    Overall IT Glue meets every need that we need it to. IT is easy to use and convenient and we have not had very many issues with it since the inception. I would easily recommend it to anyone who needs this software.

    Usability
    Kaseya
    The interface is excellent and very easy to use. As long as the text you input into the system can be easily read, you will have no problem finding it with all the different categories offered. Sometimes, the slider on the right can blend in with dark backgrounds, making it hard to see.

    For end users the product is very easy to use. For administration, you may need to do some looking around or contact support to achieve complex tasks. However the product is very flexible. Every dialog box, banner, etc can be customized if needed. Also, support is very good at helping with any issues.

    Performance

    Other than a few access outages, ITGlue is always up and available to us. Their ability to export Playbook, that contain our customers data, and securely send those over to them is amazing and are produced pretty fast. We have IT Glue linked with several other services and software and we have not found that it slows anything down.

    No problems with support when needed it. Their answers on how to handle DR/BC situations when ITG is down are not stellar. They don't seem to get the business risks of their suggestions to just give the xls backup to engineers (aka give all passwords of ALL clients to engineers in an unencrypted flat-file where it is easy to copy, print, etc.)

    We chose IT Glue particularly because it's tailored to IT documentation. As a managed IT service provider, it's perfectly in line with what we were looking for. The flexibility and tagging in particular were the kind of features we were looking for. Confluence is very good, and can be used for a number of things, not just IT documentation, but IT Glue shines for that.

    I did some research but did not find any other solutions that worked the same way or did what I needed it to do. I've used other manage engine products in the past and knew I could trust their software.

    Return on Investment
    Kaseya
    • We regret the purchase and have received little, if any, ROI.
    • [In my expereience], the main feature we hoped to get ROI from (MyGlue) was so terrible we were embarrassed to roll it out to our clients.
    • Because [I feel] it is slow and clunky, staff find quicker ways to access needed data so this is not used as much as we would have liked.

    • Much fewer help tickets for users with expiring passwords.
    • The automated emails mean we don't miss anyone whose password is expiring.
    • We've also used the MFA option for admin access to servers, adding that little extra peace of mind that they are secure.
