A Product with a Great Interface, but need to expand capabilities

  • October 25, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about the SolarWinds Service Desk is certainly the interface. It is easy and quick to assign jobs and make comments, even on the mobile app.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the software was not tailored just for IT departments. We don't use over 50% of the software, and then are frustrated when the vendor is unwilling to add on more process-management functionality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have significantly reduced email congestion for our team, and eliminated doubling up on my jobs. We also have better tracking and reporting on what our teams are doing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider if you'll be able to completely move away from emails for your ticketing. If not (as is our case), it may result in email flooding, when the point was to reduce email.

Simple but Flexible platform to manage tickets and change contro

  • October 22, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Usage is simple. Reporting is flexible. Capability to do agent driven asset and license management. Contract management. Email integration works really well. Replies captured in comments.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although basic features are easy to configure and use things get complicated once additional configurations are implemented. Conditional fields, complex forms and workflows are hard to build.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helpdesk ticket management, change control for regulated systems, asset and software tracking.

Great Helpdesk, Management and Documentation Tool

  • October 21, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
A great, in-depth solution to keeping track of helpdesk incidents, inventory of software, and solutions database.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some bulk import items that require use of the API, which can be a bit annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This has helped us prioritize incidents and allowed use to sustain an easy-to-create and read solutions database to decrease downtime for our users.

Time Saver

  • September 30, 2019

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use in submitting to the helpdesk has improved communication of issues and requests to/from our customer. Entering an issue or request via the portal is simple and streamlined. From the back office perspective, adding additional detail (category, status, etc.) is very simple and a time saver for the Helpdesk. We are quickly able to asses where we on for the day using the dashboard functionality, which includes a quick glance into how customers feel about the service they have been provided.

We are excited to move into the next phase of SolarWinds’ Samanage which includes Asset Management, building out / adding additional elements to the Service Catalogue, and implementing Problem and Change Management. As a result, we look forward to the time savings and transparency we will provide to our customer.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not applicable at this time. However, we will update once we have additional feedback.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication with our internal customer. Communication within the Helpdesk team

Integration of current Asset Management made Solar Winds SD a no brainer

  • September 30, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We are currently leveraging the Solar Winds asset management (formerly called Samanage) and were looking to move away from an archaic Linux based help desk solution. We decided it made too much sense not to go with Solar Winds HD for it's web based availability and integration into our current systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, moving from another system into a new one has been a challenge for our boots on ground employees. Tough to change systems, but nothing with the system itself jumps out as an issue as of yet. It hasn't been very long since we've been using it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a real time look at Assets in our organization and creating a functional, helpful tool for our help desk personnel to use to provide internal IT support to our staff.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for an all-in-one customizable, hosted solution, thiis it. It's especially beneficial with the integration of the Asset Management software and with Solar Winds as the new owner, I'm assuming the Network Monitoring piece will be coming along shortly as well.

Can get up and running in under a day, or customize it as much as you like.

Seems like there are a couple config hiccups, but we got through them
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
