Overall Satisfaction with Solarwinds Service Desk (formerly Samanage)

We use the Solarwinds Service Desk across the company for incident and service requests. Departments currently using the Solarwinds Service Desk are Information Technology, Loan Support, Loan Application Support, Facilities, CRM/Salesforce Team, Development Support, Telecom Department, and Marketing. Each of these departments works on different requests so having it all in one system integrated saves a lot of back and forth and decreases the resolution time.

Pros

  • Ease of use
  • Automation
  • Collaboration between departments

Cons

  • Agent User Interface (been consistently improving though)
  • Portal customization
  • Automation
  • Time management
  • Collaboration
  • Organization for quick support times
We first used Freshdesk several years ago and moved to Zendesk because the features were not where we needed them to be. Moved from Zendesk to Desk.com because we wanted to integrate with Salesforce and Desk was included in our contract. Desk.com was discontinued and we needed to find another solution moving forward. Solarwinds Service Desk met a lot of our needs and their customer support and price-point were big purchasing factors.
Using their chat feature, I always receive a response within 10-20 minutes and usually get a satisfactory resolution shortly after.
