Overall Satisfaction with SysAid

We use SysAid in IT and within facilities. We use it for ticket management as well as change management, asset inventory and reporting. This product has helped us manage our assets, know the software installed on systems, and the version of that software. It allows us to review it and be sure everyone is current. Our Change Management process is now automated with approvals. Each different Change type may have different approvers and once the sub-category is selected the correct template is used and emails go out to the approvers. It has helped us automate the approval process.

  • Have KB articles for users to self help
  • Cloud based means no on-site server or upgrades to manage
We have struggled to implement workflows and workflow tools. Our end users are also not using the self service portal to look at KB articles and help themselves. They still prefer to call us and have us fix things for them.
We were able to start using the product within a couple days of implementation. We were also able to import all of our tickets from our old system so that we did not lose our history.
We selected SyAid because it was a bit more robust. It was going to allow us to automate approvals for Change Management. We also hope to automate the onboarding and offboarding process with HR but those workflows seem to be tricky to get setup.

Do you think SysAid delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with SysAid's feature set?

Yes

Did SysAid live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of SysAid go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy SysAid again?

Yes

Support to get the basics set up was great. Anything beyond that can be tough. The knowledgebase will help again with basic questions but if you have anything that is specific to your business that you want to implement or set up, there is limited support.
Overall we like the product and for what we are using it for, Help Desk, Change Management, Asset management, it is working well.
