Overall Satisfaction with SolarWinds Service Desk (SSD)

Solarwinds Service Desk is used to manage our day to day IT operations. This system allows our users to enter tickets, we can prioritise and respond to them. This allows us to run an efficient Issue department. We also use this stem to track and maintain assets. Having the data for our devices in one place, that can be linked to tickets, is helpful.

Pros

  • Ticket management
  • Asset management

Cons

  • Work flow customisation
  • Contact customisation
  • Save my team time
  • Organises assets
The stem is easy to use. Having transitioned from Solarwinds Web HelpDesk, the usability change was massive! This has an easy to use interface, common options are front and centre so this makes it simple for staff to dive into. The mobile app makes on the go work easy as well. Being able to snap a picture for a ticket is very helpful.
This is a great system for the price. It doesn’t have all of the bells and whistles of dinner off the bigger systems out there. But the core components are built well. This would allow a team to really embed good foundational practices in managing IT operations on a daily basis.
