SysAid Copilot is available as an add-on for any plan. It bakes generative AI into every aspect of service management.
In our case, SysAid helps us manage all company incidents, as well as automatically handle onboarding and offboarding processes through rules. It also keeps us up-to-date on asset monitoring and software and operating system updates. Furthermore, thanks to its integration with Azure, it helps us effectively manage our Active Directory in the cloud. Currently, we are working extensively on feeding data to our internal chatbot and the environment's data pool to further facilitate incident resolution. These recurring processes allow the IT team to focus solely on the most critical incidents, freeing up more time for new tasks and projects. Ultimately, SysAid greatly simplifies the daily work of both end users and IT administrators. En nuestro caso SysAid nos ayuda a llevar toda la gestión de incidentes de la empresa además de gestionar automáticamente mediante reglas procesos de onboarding y offbording, llevar al día la monitorización de los activos y de las actualizaciones tanto de software como de sistema operativo, también nos ayuda a tener una buena gestión de nuestro directorio activo en la nube gracias a la integración con Azure, actualmente estamos trabajando mucho con la alimentación al chatbot interno y el datapool de datos del entorno para facilitar aún más la resolución de incidentes. recurrentes estos procesos ayudan a que el equipo de TI se centre unicamente en los incidentes mas relevantes teniendo mas tiempo para tareas y proyectos nuevos. En definitiva SysAid nos facilita mucho el trabajo diario tanto a los usuarios finales como a los administradores de TI.

Help Desk Ticketing works well and integrates easily with e-mail. IT staff is immediately notified when a new ticket is created.
Device management and inventory is easily tracked within SysAid. A full report is easily generated for a device detailing hardware and software specifics.
SysAid Copilot AI is phenomenal. It has been designed with the end user in mind. The user can speak to the prompt in natural language and expect a custom response according to their incident or service needs.
SaaS connectors are not always kept up to date usually when Publishers make changes to their Portal API's. Appears to be little active monitoring on Flexera/Snow Atlas' side unless a customer reports an issue with the data being returned. Fixes are normally implemented as as quickly as possible, depending on whether it is considered a Bug Fix or a Feature Enhancement.
Users - Snow on SAM - No ability to add or bulk import manually. Completely reliant on AD Discovery or Entra ID Discovery
Users - SaaS module - No ability for bulk update of Users for things line 'Online only' or 'Qualified' user accounts. This is an issue in larger companies where you have thousands of SaaS Users being reported through connectors like Microsoft E365.
SaaS module Dashboard does not allow for filtering of insights to a specific Publisher.
Not all Back end SMACC functionality form Snow License Manager have been exposed to the front-end access, as Snow Atlas does not allow customer Administrators access to the back end or SQL databases.
If you are migrating from on-prem Snow License Manager to Atlas, migration tools have not been created by Snow and will require a Project to handle your migration. Without Migration tools, we had to use a Managed Service Partner who had to manually create a lot of their own scripts to retrieve data that cannot be downloaded via reports and imported into Atlas. Any attachments documentation on Agreement or License Records has to be manually re-attached/uploaded to the relevant Agreement/License records in Atlas as the migration was performed.
The Help tool could use some refining. Particularly indicating the order in which steps must be done. A clear example is the creation of customized fields or lists.
Formatting of the ticket. There is no possibility to create dynamic tables, use more than one column. I would want to have more flexibility without having to pay for Professional Services
This rating reflects our overall satisfaction with the platform’s performance, reliability, and flexibility in meeting our IT service management needs. SysAid has streamlined our ticketing processes, enhanced asset management, and improved operational efficiency through automation and reporting. The system’s adaptability across multiple departments has added significant value beyond IT. An excellent service tool.
Whilst it delivers on most of the features it comes with, I feel Change Management needs a complete re-do as it is really complicated, and think it should be made to be straightforward. For the free services of their Market Place, they should develop a platform where one can just browse for the script (downloaded) and apply the patch, without having to go into various places in code to activate the service. or at least, build the integrations into the system and have [a] section under settings, or even straight from the Market Place, where one can just enable the service, and if required, be prompted to input additional information, including credentials.
Another of the benefits of sysaid is that it is highly available when working in on-premise environments.The only times the system is down is when a restart of the services is required to add a new feature. Apart from that, we have not had any problems.In the case of the cloud, the only condition I have seen where sysaid is not available is because the internet link is down or damaged.
In the case of system performance, I have seen that no matter the number of assets and users, Sysaid responds in the same way and at the same speed. The reports that are scheduled do not have any details because they arrive directly to your email. In the same way, when it is integrated with other systems, for example through the API or by email, we have not seen any failure due to the integration. It works very well with or without integrations.
Front line support staff done always understand the issue you are explaining or the need to escalate to back end/higher up areas for resolutions and can often require use of the Escalate function or emailing to your Account/Customer Success Manager. That said, once an issue properly is understood, it is handled well.
SysAid support is fast and effective. They support their own product, so they know it well. I can expect a response to my request in less than 24 hours and often in less than an hour. Their sales, customer support, and technical support staff are experts in the area of the support request ticket, so we seldom are transferred to another support agent. Their system is well designed and one of the best of all the applications we use.
My team was greatly assisted and trained well. Despite the time zone difference the trainer made every effort to be available during times that were suitable for us and the assistance and help offered was extremely appreciated by my team. A wonderful experience by the team.
The training I received was very good, they gave me tasks to carry out and then they checked what I had done.It was gratifying that the instructor noticed that I had made very fast progress because I had done the implementation myself and it was very fast. At least I remember that after 5 days I had already finished almost 90% of all the implementation tasks.
We should have spun up a Project to manage the implementation. Snow indicated to us the ease in which Snow Atlas could be implemented, however this did not factor in that we were migrating from their on-prem product Snow License Manager hosted through a Managed Servicer Partner. For a clean installation, your implementation can be quick and likely not require a Project. If you are migrating from another products or are a company that can have lots of stakeholders, fingers in the pie, hurdles/business processes that need to be adhered to, definitely use a Project to perform your implementation.
It is recommended that it be synchronized with the active directory for a better experience, also using the network scanning tools are very useful both to maintain your hardware and software inventory. See all the documentation found on the portal where they suggest good practices for the use of SysAid and exploit it from the first time
There are many items offered on the other platforms that SysAid does not have. However, for a smaller or medium-sized business that needs a simple and easy way to get tickets flowing and allow users to help themselves, this is an excellent way to start.
When we purchase it, the plans were different and mainly we acquired lifetime licenses. in the past year, we migrated to the cloud version. In both cases, the pricing structure was accurate, although they could provide some extra flexibility to pay for exactly what we need in the business.
Le doy esta calificación porque los módulos que contiene se pueden usar para casi cualquier departamento, tanto gestión de tickets como inventarios de equipos, hemos utilizado una versión gratuita en Ingeniería para gestionar sus tiempos en las tareas asignadas, es lo único que utilizan pero podrían usar fácilmente el módulo de inventario para su herramienta y el módulo de proyectos también
We have used SysAid since 2008. Through out these years, we find that SysAid support is very helpful and professional. The respond that we get is very fast and they will help us until we have solved our problem that we reported to them. So far, we are very happy with SysAid support.
