Overall Satisfaction with Spiceworks

We chose Spiceworks as a help desk ticketing system for our IT team. It works amazing, is easy to use and set up, and does everything we need it to and more. We use it as a way for users to submit tickets to our IT Department by email; assign the tickets, track the ticket history and even look at past ticket history. It does a lot more but we do not use most of the features or are not currently utilizing them. The best thing about it is that it is free and the support is free too! Another great feature is the forums and articles where lots of other IT professionals get together to talk and answer questions. We use this quite often to help with issues that we might be facing or read how others are using technology in their workspace.

We highly recommend it, in fact we have to many other professionals, even in our own organization.
  • Help desk
  • Forums for IT issues
  • Articles
  • Scanning of network devices
  • Purchasing piece is a nice try but found it is not very useful
  • Great for ROI, we use it daily and there is no cost.
It's great for a help desk ticketing system, that does not need to be very robust. It works great for our environment, and actually does it pretty well. We stopped using another product that we were paying for that was much more complex and expensive because Spiceworks was so simple. You can't beat the price also.
