Better for immediate handling os priority issues but project related activities are better suited to a kanban board presented from devops
Chose SysAid
SysAid offers both cloud and on-premise delivery models, plus different ITSM capabilities and pricing levels from a basic ticketing system, through the help desk, to IT service management software.
Chose SysAid
The Spiceworks cloud helpdesk is a good, free alternative to paid helpdesk options. However, because it's free it's limited in functionality. We chose SysAid as it has all the features we desired such as strong change control, and more extras such as the remote support function …

Jira Work Management needs a difficult customization part. Jira is also a large scale tool. This tool is more complex. It requires more business understanding. SysAid is beginners friendly. Hence we have opted for this tool. For tools like Jira we need a scrum master to …

Better support than open source solutions. It provides a better overall design to get an overview of the whole IT system. To configure Redmine you need some programming knowledge or search for plugins and solutions on forums. Sydaid has a proper helpdesk which you can contact …
Chose SysAid
SysAid, compared to other helpdesk software, was reasonably cost-effective; they provided seamless integrations and were willing to redesign the software to meet our needs. One of their current features that is winning with my organization is the SysAid bot. This is a great …
Chose SysAid
SysAid was better at including multiple modules than the competition. We also like the licensing options and price better than the competition.

Knowledge base, asset management, Teams Chat bot.

I can't comment as we did not demo either product.
Chose SysAid
SysAid has a much faster and less complicated client. Cherwell was a bit slow and over complicated.
Chose SysAid
We tried to evaluate ServiceNow, but the vendor immediately discarded us as a small company by their standards. SysAid was the best choice in terms of product price and quick vendor support.
Chose SysAid
My recent experience with a service desk platform was using ManageEngine's ServiceDesk Plus solution. SysAid stacks up well against this solution, and I tend to appreciate SysAid more due to it being a cloud solution and for the Microsoft Teams integration. SysAid is also …

SysAid Asset Management and Ticketing offers superior functionality and advantages over Spiceworks IT Management. With SysAid, organizations benefit from comprehensive asset tracking and management capabilities, enabling efficient monitoring of hardware, software, and other IT …
Chose SysAid
This module has allowed us to keep track of projects, their tasks, assignments, status control, start and end, as well as control of issues in project management. Today we use this module to place the projects such as the ISO27000 certification that we are looking for and …
Chose SysAid
We selected SyAid because it was a bit more robust. It was going to allow us to automate approvals for Change Management. We also hope to automate the onboarding and offboarding process with HR but those workflows seem to be tricky to get setup.
Chose SysAid
Sysaid is a budget software for the most part. It gives similar functionality but a smaller community, more outdated platform, and, for lack of a better term, "clunkyness". In my opinion, the big competitors give better features, smoother UI, and a deeper community for a bigger …
Chose SysAid
Sysaid had many of the service offerings as the large players had but at a much more cost effective price point. The licensing model was very fair and we felt that the amount of time that we would have to re-invest in the tool was minimal. For example, one of the other …
Chose SysAid
We selected SysAid because of cost saving and doing same ITSM job
Chose SysAid
SysAid is a better management tool when it comes to [the] help desk and user experience. You can create your own templates and apply [them] to the wide business. Asset Management is quite simple to set up and gives you a good overview [of] your assets. CMDB is something that …
Chose SysAid
SysAid is a nice in-between the products I listed. It has as we need without too much and it is HIPAA compliant; which matters to us. Connectwise is a nice suite of products but would be too much for this company; although we have adopted ConnectWise Control in-house and that …

SysAid has been great in our management of handling tickets within our Helpdesk but has also allowed us to include other departments. Having work flows has helped us with onboarding and setting up approval process for phones and computers, along with auto prompting end user with additional required info for requests and incidents minimizing the back and forth communication for basic info.

Pros
SysAid Technologies
  • Email integration. End-users can interact with the ticketing system exclusively through email, and admins can message exclusively within a ticket. All communications are linked directly to user accounts including SysAid admin accounts.
  • Ticket management is very customizable. You can add categories, statuses, action and communication automation, ticket sorting, and much more.
  • knowledge base links directly to tickets, so repeat issues are easy to solve.

Cons
SysAid Technologies
  • There are still issues with how well the cloud version of SysAid performs. It can be slow at times. It can be offline every so often (very rarely).
  • There is a lot to learn with this solution so reaching out to their Support is crucial.
  • Cost. This is not the cheapest solution and cost is not an issue for us, but it might be for some companies. I think it is very reasonably priced and you get what you pay for.

Having personally used SysAid for the past 10 years or so, when it was still in its infancy, the trajectory of its improvement and the pricing, there is no doubt that it will be soon an overall market leader, because whilst there other services with options that SysAid doesn't have or haven't mastered, they come at [an] eye-watering price, and in my comparison, for up to 300% more.

Usability
SysAid Technologies
SysAid is easy to use and configure. There are some technical components to the configuration, but their implementation of the SysAid system allows for easy self-service. There was only one time that SysAid could not provide a solution to my direct need. We quickly found a workaround. The issue was integration with Microsoft Office 365 when it was first released. The connection between SysAid and Outlook was problematic. It was not long before SysAid had resolved the issue and provided that integration.

Support Rating
SysAid Technologies
I have had nothing but positive experiences working with the SysAid support team. There are multiple pathways to request and receive support, which are all connected with each other. I get an efficient and effective response most of the time and when there is not immediately a good answer, they create a support request to follow up for resolution.

In the initial stage we implement separate SysAid servers for head and branch offices. When we managed to link up our offices via point to point VPN, we manage to console them into one server. All the assets and devices on branch office were divert back to the server in head office

SysAid, compared to other helpdesk software, was reasonably cost-effective; they provided seamless integrations and were willing to redesign the software to meet our needs. One of their current features that is winning with my organization is the SysAid bot. This is a great idea, and we hope that in the future, we will be able to customize this to our organization's needs.

Contract Terms and Pricing Model
SysAid Technologies
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.

Scalability

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
