Integration flexibility and informative dashboards enable effective workflow management
Ivanti Neurons allows me to adjust our workflow according to our needs. It offers flexibility, integration with our solution, sends alerts, and provides information about service availability.

"The interface, workflow, and dashboards are powerful and easy to manage for tracking KPIs and sharing strategies with our customers."
"This is an excellent alternative to ServiceNow for smaller companies."
"The main feature for us is incident management, as it assists me in knowing my assignments, because we have group assignments. When we go to the group assignment they can assign it to me there."
"The solution's technical support is excellent. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"HEAT Service Management is good for asset and service desk management. It is the focal point for this solution."
"The solution's installation depends on its customization. It is easy."
"Easy to use and user-friendly."
"The visibility features are great."
"Apart from ticket management and workflow, the Kanban board is one of the helpful tools in Jira."
"It is 100% stable."
"Its integration is most valuable. It is pretty open for integration."
"Everyone knows how to use it, so there's no need to teach new members."
"Provides excellent management features."
"​Allows customized processes for our service contracts."
 

Cons

"We'd like more integration with solutions like SolarWinds."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM is not a user-friendly tool when compared to ServiceNow."
"I have had to open a few support tickets with the HEAT Service Management. They are very good but there are some areas that they could improve on."
"Sometimes I can't get the reports that I want until I go to the manager. They need to put more into the new reports. The standard reports are great, but there do not communicate as much."
"There is room for improvement in terms of response time. The support team takes a long time to respond."
"There could be an improvement in the ability to easily integrate other systems without extensive development."
"Ivanti Neurons for ITSM's support model is not very strong. You should buy professional services. Its self-service portal and survey are extremely lacking. You cannot customize it, and it doesn't look very good. The solution does not have a strong community."
"There's a lack of integration with other products. This needs to be improved."
"The initial setup of JIRA Service Management can be complex for new users. There is a lot of configuration."
"Currently lacks an asset management module that can affect deployment."
"​SaaS version for large organizations (more than 2000 users) is not available."
"It is difficult to navigate if you don't have any prior knowledge."
"From the customer side, it's not friendly used compared to other competitors, like ServiceNow or BMC. It's also not fully ITSM management if you compare it with ServiceNow or BMC. They have a full model of ITSM. In BMC they have TrueSight, they have Discovery, which helps IT to discover IT equipment with a serial number, with the specs, capacity of the server."
"The interface could always be updated and improved."
"It has change management and incident management, but CMDB is not there. It's also not as user-friendly as ServiceNow."
"There is no notification regarding language upgrades."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is affordable for small businesses."
"I came to know from my team members that my company used to operate ServiceNow but shifted to Ivanti Neurons for ITSM due to its low licensing prices."
"If you want to add more users who can handle support there will be additional fees. What we call our extensions, we need to pay more for. They tell us that we need to acquire more licenses or something like that. I think it's very expensive, because in terms the pula, our local currency, it's about 20,000 per license for each user. It is an annual fee."
"The price is on the higher side. The support is included in the standard licensing fees."
"JIRA Service Desk has different pricing as it is based on agents. On average, the price is about $300 per agent."
"JIRA Service Management's pricing is pretty decent compared to competitors. I rate the pricing an eight to nine on a scale of one to ten."
"On a scale of one to five, where five is a good price and one is high, I would rate this solution as a three. It isn't cheap but it's not ridiculous."
"I rate Service Management four out of 10 for affordability. The price could be better, especially for companies using more than one Atlassian product. It's suitable for SMBs that can afford it. I don't think there's another tool that's both better and cheaper. All help desk tools are relatively expensive."
"The price of JIRA Service Management could be reduced."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, where one is low price, and ten is high price. It's competitively priced."
"It depends on the number of users but it starts at $20 per month per user. I would rate them a three out of five for pricing."
"JSM's pricing is one of the best, starting at around $10 per user, per month, with volume discounts available."
