The most valuable feature of TOPdesk is its ease of use if you have implemented it in the right way. If you're not implementing it in the right way, then it's very difficult.

This solution is modular so you only buy what you need, but I prefer what some companies are doing where they include everything in the package.

One of the disadvantages of TOPdesk is the reporting tool. It is very poor and not in real-time. You do not always receive the correct information.

All companies have processes that need to be adjusted. When you have a change, you need to name it, and many companies have a set of changes you can use. It would be helpful if there were more space in TOPdesk to name the change or use metadata to record the kinds of changes.

From a UI perspective, there is room for improvement. It sometimes takes many steps to do something simple, like creating or moving a knowledge item.
