I like the interaction you get with the software, the fact that you can customized the icons, and also the support you receive
very basic input, needs more additions. for example project management, incident manage, and change management.

Make it easy for users to report their issues and no excuses from Helpdesk Support team because ticket can update anytime, anywhere .
There are few features that I like, taking the possibility where I can customize most of the input in Service Catalogue by adding or removing and also the assets management tool which is very helpful for pulling reports.
Not keeping customer update up coming features.

We've been a customer of BOSS Solutions for 10 years and their asset management solution has become an integral part of our service organization. We depend on the asset inventory and software inventory every day.

Inventory Management
The software is customer and user friendly and love the fact that custom fields can be added. I would recommend BOSS software to any business or local government that need to gain control of managing tickets and managing their inventory.
Routing rules for groups and teams take time to learn. The need to fully understand BOSS and how to utilize the software for reports etc. need to be more hands on.

BossDesk is providing us with a solid ticketing system. The additional features like being able to turn emails into tickets makes this product very useful.
The software is easy to use and allows you to create customizable service requests, which has proven to be VERY helpful. There are a lot of features associated with BossDesk that allow you to feed into the application with email or Google, and this has proven to be a game changer for us. We can create a "comment" in a Google doc and use the Boss postbox feature to create a ticket off of this comment. We also can have a piece of IT equipment email a ticket into Boss when there is an outage. There are a lot of little integrations like these two examples that extend the usefulness of the application.
BossDesk has a dashboard with widgets that display ticket counts and allows you to open a view of those tickets - I wish it could use "custom" fields from the service requests to create dashboard items. Also, management would like to see more reporting features. All in all, still not too much downside to BossDesk.

Customer service and technical support are top notch. We love the flexibility to interface with Active Directory and MS Access. We use the reports to manage all of our helpdesk functions. BOSS reports provide management valuable information on trends and technical support resource utilization.

Cost friendly and efficient application for helpdesk and asset management
Boss has help desk, Inventory Management, Asset management functionalities... all rolled into one platform! Best value for organizations looking to streamline their operations
Integration and work flow set up during the initial stages can be complicated. customization can also be tricky though they have an efficient support team.

We use BossDesk for our helpdesk solution as well as Asset Management as well as Self help point for our customers. The support staff is exceptional and makes setup and troubleshooting super easy.
The ease of use is extraordinary. Asset management is definitely a breeze once everything is setup. Ticket management and history of issues is easy to track based on both the customer involved and the asset. So problem management can be tracked down to the customer or device.
There really is not anything I can think of I would point out as being a negative

Boss Support Central hass really helped us to manage and streamline our trouble ticket calls. It has really eased the pain of how we were doing trouble tickets before. Also, the inventory management functions have been very useful and allowed us to computerize all of our inventory in one central location.
Very easy to manage and access trouble tickets. Very nice inventory management functions
None that I can think of

We have been partnering with BOSS Solutions since 2007 when they introduced DiagWin. It's been one of the most successful decisions we've made. Our positive experiences have encouraged us to extend this application into other county departments, and we've never regretted that decision. BOSS Solutions has offered their knowledge and experience to discuss options and to guide us on how to use their applications most effectively.
Superior customer service along with a solid, well-supported application
They need to improve their communication of new features and functions.

Exceptional. There is always something new to learn and make it adapt to my day-to-day needs.
The ability to help users with their technical needs through a ticket management system.
Thus far there is nothing. BossDesk has everything you could possibly need to work for you and your organization.

BOSS is essential to helping our department work with customers and keep track of inventory and issues. With the latest update, a necessary but not efficient experience has become very speedy and we can flip through tickets and searches with ease
Helpdesk ticket management allows us to assign and track individual and project tickets with ease Asset management and inventory help us to easily keep track of our inventory for ticket and audit purposes The latest version speeds the whole thing up so much more
Older version was slow and flipping between pages took a long time

Implements our service response and keeps history.
Quickly write a ticket and assign it. Distributes with ease on 3 platforms. Support is very responsive and they've always helped me. Looking forward to the new web version. I hope to set it up with an ITIL theme. Very reasonably priced. Lots of webinars.
Someone in my organization designed the hierarchy before I got here and I would have done it differently. Will correct it when mapping to the new version. Had to learn SQL to get the kind of reports that I wanted.

Compared a few different products and for generous amount of everything that is offered in this product at such a great cost we couldn't go wrong. Yes some of the other products were a little cheaper but they didn't include the whole package. With this solution we got everything we needed including service desk, asset management, inventory, computer management, mobile apps and more. The staff at BOSS were always friendly and were great at helping us set up the product and training my staff on using it. I've used many other products but can say that this one is the best I have ever used and will be using this for a longtime to come

It has been great. We have really tuned it well and it works great for our current environment. We use more and more features everyday as we get things setup and settled.
It's ticket management system. It has worked wonders for us. Both with helping us internally and externally with other vendors
Its not always the best when reporting a PCs activity. Sometimes it won't catch that a computer is online and display current info

We migrated from a legacy on-prem solution to a BoSS on-prem solution which we easily migrated to the BoSS SaaS solution. All of our information was easily migrated forward as we needed to make organizational changes. The BoSS solution suite is capable, flexible, adaptable, and easy to use, which has resulted in significant process improvements for our organization.
The integration and automation of service requests, and the ability to create a service request from multiple avenues. Being a SaaS solution enables access to tickets and inventory from any location and from any device. We are able to update our field techs with ticket assignments or ticket updates while they are in the field, and the techs are able to update the service ticket from the field with the latest information. This makes reporting close to real-time.
There's nothing that I can point to that I would regards as liking least about the solution, other than the solution won't actually perform the physical work itself :-)

BOSS Solutions Support Central has proven to be a flexible and reliable asset for many of our service departments throughout Forsyth County. It's the primary means for all county employees to request assistance with computer and communications related issues. Our GIS department uses Support Central for every service request it receives and it's employees use the timesheet feature to track their time...

No comment until we utilize the BOSSDesk
My company just purchased BOSSDesk, hopefully it will make Service Desk easier and give users more optional to choose from.
At the moment I don't have any opinion about BOSSDesk.
