Vision Helpdesk: Feature rich, but overly complicated
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
My organization was using Vision Helpdesk as an internal ticketing system. We found that several of our departments had a lot going on with different tasks and projects and management needed a way to keep track of what needed to be done and where different projects and tasks were in their life cycle. Tasks and projects were submitted, assigned, and organized to different assets.
Pros
- It's very affordable
- Vision Helpdesk has a lot of customization options
- Vision Helpdesk has a lot of features
Cons
- Vision Helpdesk has very little out of the box configurations. Almost everything has to be touched by someone.
- While it has a lot of options, it's not that simple to integrate with other platforms.
Likelihood to Recommend
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.
