Clunky Budget Software Balloons into Premium Priced Package
- 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.
- The UI feels like they are partway through applying a new, modern design. Different pages have different designs and styles. There are three or four different designs used throughout the product. The various menu layouts and navigation conventions make the site difficult to navigate and become accustomed to.
- In my opinion, the KB editor is terrible and makes our articles look like blog posts from 2001. They also require links to add an image instead of direct uploads; no screenshots unless you have dedicated web storage for images. Even with dedicated storage, uploading to a separate location and then linking to that location is so cumbersome that our helpdesk techs never do it anyway.
- In my experience, the asset feature is so bad that we don't use it and opted for another asset management solution. The scan pulls up very little on all of our IP ranges, and installing the SysAid Agent didn't change that. Also, installing the Agent on our devices is time-consuming even with GroupPolicy and doesn't always work.
- Each way we have turned with SysAid, a fee or upsale has been lurking. Our budget ticketing tool quickly ballooned into a full-price system. Wish we had just gone for a premium service from another vendor in the first place.
Solid, Affordable, IT Managment Tool for the Education Sector
- Provides a user friendly GUI for our End Users
- Provides our Support Team with a solid array of IT management tools
- Affordable solutions to the education sector
- Reporting Suite is developing well but has been difficult in the past to pull data together easily
- The education on-prem product has restricted customizations, branding is limited basically
- Upgrades are multi step, (not rolled up to latest release, multiple version upgrades are required) and this increases our downtime for maintenance
- SLA Management of an end-user ticket
- Ease of use
- Asset Management
- Customized Email capability (Being able to send and receive from Company email)
- Better Remote Desktop Support features
- More Asset categories that are no licensed (Monitors, Keyboards, etc...)

Handy ITSM tool

- [The] end user portal [could offer] the ability to customize more info, like font and adding more images.
Some thoughts on SysAid
- Ease of use for end users creating tickets from their own Self-Service Portal (which is tied into Windows Active Directory so no login is needed).
- Ease of use and management of tickets by the IT staff.
- Flexibility. We currently have IT teams associated with a single program, a single department, and all other IT items. SysAid allows us to easily manage this, add to it, change it, etc.
- Support - SysAid support has remained consistently great throughout the years that we have had the product. That is a fairly rare thing for hosted solutions these days.
- Expandability. We have a lot more that we can still do with the product and are working on expanding what it can do as we move forward in time. There is a lot to this product overall.
- 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.
