SolarWinds Web Help Desk (WHD) holds its own among the top competitors for help desk systems. Some advanced functionality, and more-so the lack of polished interface knocks it down compared to some competitors. I selected SolarWinds Web Help Desk (WHD) simply because I came into a shop that was already using it. I may evaluate new options in the coming years to try and find an offering with better reporting functionality and a more polished GUI.
