    It's a good company to grow with because as needs change there are more features available.

    ServicePro has been a reliable tool to associate field service work orders to our NetSuite data. Our company has some niche and specific business use cases - so while I think it has good out of the box functionality, it has not been the easiest tool to build customizations around.

    Cons
    N-able
    • It is just simply too slow! The web interface requires patience, even when moving between tabs or menu choices. This is by far the biggest detracting element of MSP Manager.
    • Input customization -- I would like the settings pages to allow me to customize some input screens, especially the Ticket Entry window. The "Quick Ticket" entry is missing a few key items I want in a trouble ticket, and the full ticket entry window has numerous fields I never use or are always the same, and so it just takes more time and effort than is necessary.
    • Both the asset tracking and the knowledge base should be more robust and integrally tied into the RMM console, so that licenses, serial numbers, procedures, network data are quick and simple to access from either interface.

    • Rigid System Design / complex backend model for api access
    • Cumbersome to build inspections
    • Inability to associate Inspections to Appointments, only work orders
    • No batch update capabilities

    MSP Manager is a fully serviced paid option. Spiceworks is a free helpdesk. They both are very useful, but a company can just outgrow Spiceworks.

    We originally tried Next Serice - We had a need to batch create work orders from a NetSuite Sales Order to a related work order - Our ServicePro development integration team was able to build this in our production environment, Next Service was not able to build this for us during our trial period with them.

    • We have had to spend time and resources to create our own reports, as MSP Manager does not have them.
    • Searching for a ticket requires scrolling, wasting time

    • Positive ROI: Increased order fulfillment qty
    • Positive ROI: Eliminated errors in our work order process
    • Negative ROI: Limited visibility to track work order success rates, poor association of inspection to appointment record
