Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review Sohodox is a beneficial paperless office software product that is quick to install, cost-effective, and easy to operate; it works very well with any TWAIN compatible scanner. It is a perfect solution for small business document management that features all tools which are needed to manage electronic and paper documents more efficiently. It lets you scan, index, organize, store, search and manage documents.
Read full review Pros 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. Read full review Supports all document types as well as versioning. Integrated across all computer and mobile device operating systems for complete access to data. Complex indexing that allows for advanced and fast searching. Easy to use interface that is not challenging for the average user. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review Not a truly scalable software package, best fit for single or smaller organizations up to 15 users. Does not force structure and is less document management and more document storage / organization. Pricing is not cheap but is relative to what you receive, online document storage and advanced access across devices. Read full review Usability Easy to train and use. Everything is in the same place. Multi factor authentication and access from anywhere make secure and convenient. Can do my job with out it. It also has a free read and paid write option for the client. We up sell this option making it a money maker as well.
Read full review It's easy to operate.
Read full review 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.
Read full review Support Rating 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.)
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review Well, it a good product at an affordable price, which makes it suitable for me to chose Sohodox.
Read full review Return on Investment 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. Read full review Very scalable, but only to a certain level (1-15 users or so max). Interface and usability are user-friendly, without sacrificing features and power. Advanced tagging and searching allows users to save documents and organize them "their way" without forcing specific workflows. Read full review ScreenShots
