Overall Satisfaction with ServiceDesk Plus

ServiceDesk Plus (SDP) is used in our IT department for incidents, services, and projects. We also use the Purchasing, Knowledge Base and change modules. We are slowly integrating into the purchasing department.
  • SLA management
  • Knowledge Base
  • Update releases
  • Simplified reporting
  • Better built in help
  • Quicker feature development lifecycle
  • Anything entered (tickets, changes, projects) is tracked
  • Tough to get meaningful reports out
  • Incidents or Service Requests are documented
Just ended up being the winner of the tortoise race. Showed the most promise but costs to fulfill those promises made it fall short of expectations.
No set IT budget would be perfect for SDP deployment. Install everything available and prune out what you do not need. All options/add-ons are pricey and most 'integrated options' have only menus integrated and not actual tools.
