    SyncroMSP is great for MSPs starting out or wanting to keep their costs low. Some RMM software will charge per install - and price breaks only available as your base grows to a significant number. As Syncro is a "per agent" cost, the costs for an MSP are (a) known and (b) easily to manage as the team grows. The third-party integration element is very useful for MSPs looking to be able to not only onsell additional services, but the management of these services is simple for anybody to use

    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.

    Pros
    SyncroMSP Servably Inc
    • Due to the cloud based platform, we could scale the based on our needs relatively with ease.
    • We also utilized the auto billing features which were convenience.
    • The consolidation of both RMM and RSA decreased the amount of software we needed.
    • Also, the user friendliness of the platform allowed employees to use easy.

    • 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.

    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.

    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.

    Return on Investment
    SyncroMSP Servably Inc
    • The integrated AV solution with Bitdefender is very cheap - yet very a very high quality NGAV solution. It allows us to ensure our clients have access to an NGAV solution at an affordable price
    • Syncro has allowed us to expend our business into new areas which were not able to be accessed previously. This means that we can now service our clients in different ways than previously.
    • The fixed cost pricing allows our teams to understand what their costs are - but also allow us to grow the business and customer base with no increase in costs until we increase our technical team.

    • 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).
