Overall Satisfaction with SysAid

SysAid is used by the whole department in my company. This tool is used to create a ticket, service request, change request, problem request, etc. This tool is associated with Control-M, so whenever we receive any failure or a long running job or a job that is not executed on time in the control-M, we receive a ticket against it on SysAid
  • Easy to create any service request
  • We can assign multiple tickets for same group at the same time
  • Easy to close the tickets as well as service request
  • Easy to use
  • No training required to use it; just two to three KTs are enough
  • Sometimes when we assign multiple tickets to the same group, it lands in some other group
  • It logs off in few minutes
  • A little slow as compared to some other ticketing tools like Maximo
  • Easy to operate
  • Ticket creation and SR creations are very easy
  • Multiple assignment of the tickets is a major problem
  • Multiple assigned tickets of the same groups some times land in some other group
I have been using this tool for the last two years, and being an IT professional, I always used to review the tools. This is an essential ticketing tool and moreover it is cheaper than other ticketing tool.
