JitBit Help Desk vs. Vision Helpdesk

If your budget is really tight, then JitBit is not for you. It's kind of pricey. That said, JitBit HelpDesk is very robust--we've never had one second of downtime in my two years of using it. It depends on what's important to you. If you need rock-solid Help Desk and stellar, trouble-free performance, then JitBit it. If not, there are alternatives that are much less expensive. The cloud version might be less expensive for companies that don't need an on-premise solution.

I think that there is probably nothing that Vision Helpdesk can't do given enough work to customize it. The problem is that you almost have to have someone dedicated to knowing everything there is to know about the system and then have them be the administrator of all the customizations and feature additions you want. It's great that it can do so much, but it's not great that it's so complicated and has very little out-of-the-box configurations.

• Fantastic ticketing system to keep track of old conversations from clients.
• Fantastic analytics and metric tracking.
• Fantastic for sharing relationships with a customer. Generally, this would be a salesperson sharing an onboarding with a support person, but I think you could get creative with it. JitBit is very flexible.
• Super easy to learn and use. If you can use your email, you can use JitBit.

• The best thing for us - the timer. It's really cool. We can start the timer and end it when support finishes. It's very important for working with other companies we give support for.
• Good-looking, with good visualisation and usability dashboard.
• Ticket transfer between support users, comments, ticket printing.
• The best price and functionality, comparing to other help desks.
• Support. Best support I have seen on internet. Helped with setup, and helped with few minor questions.

• Reporting functionalities could be better
• Improvements to user management
• Expansion to AI functionalities

Incentivized

• Chat feature.
• Remote desktop.
• Get more integration with other software and Mobile apps.

For us it's really best solution.

Really simple, good-looking interface, many features and customizations

Support from Vision Helpdesk was rather lackluster. We uncovered a bug pretty early on in our use of the system and it took them about a month to fix it. Our internal admin of the system had to keep pestering them to get it fixed. It wasn't critical to our business but was something we needed fixed and it just seemed like they didn't care that much about fixing it.

JitBit just had the feature set at the cost point we were willing to spend. Nothing against the other products, but this one just fit our model better.

Vision Helpdesk was more open for an NGO while the other companies were more attended on the "big-money", which we don't have as an NGO. Second point is that Vision Helpdesk is very easy and simple to use. Not too much installation, programming etc.

• JitBit has neither had a positive nor a negative effect on our ROI. The reason is that we had to have a Help Desk solution that is secure and well-supported.
• JitBit does cost real money. The least expensive on-premise option is $1,699, which might have a negative impact on your budget, but I'd have to say that it's worth it--at least for us.
• Trouble-free, practically maintenance-free, Help Desk software has a positive impact on our technician time spent on it.

• Most cost-effective help desk software I have researched from Kayako to SAAS [products] like Zendesk.
• We got more features and easy customization done with Vision Helpdesk which where not possible for Zendesk and Kayako was too costly.
• Ticket tracking has been easier and faster with Vision Helpdesk; for our web hosting business we prefer a download version which is not possible with SAAS help desk providers ( Zendesk or Freshdesk).
