    Pros
    This works like a charm and even users with little computerexperience can create tickets. Also the solutions part of servicedesk is awesome.
    It gives the chance to create tickets with greater level of detail and that makes the time to resolution quicker, with less re-opened tickets and increased user satisfaction.
    User friendly and I am getting what exact output I want. Especially with SDP I just love it the way it is designed and the outputs are just awesome.
    Cons
    Software does have occasional hiccups and glitches, but the worst part is their support. It declined so much over the years that it's unbearable now.
    Remote project management does not work for all platforms. Another disadvantage is that the software needs frequent updates.
    Then sales contacts you a few days later. The sales person was rude and refused to renew our free license because I refused to buy any of the paid add ons or for a support license.

    ManageEngine has Streamlined our Helpdesk!

    Reviewed 6 years ago

    We were previously on BMC RemedyForce and it would take me an entire day to configure a simple ticket template. It takes me mere minutes with ManageEngine. Their support staff and developers are the best in the business and I can't say enough good things about my experiences working with them.

    Pros

    It's easy to use and configure! Their support staff and community are absolutely incredible. They even have FREE master classes to help you learn more about how it works, and user conferences where the actual developers give you hands-on training, so you find out even more about administering it. You get a head's up about new features coming down the pipe. I just can't say enough good things about it!

    Cons

    The feature requests sometimes take a while to come through, but that you can put them in at all is a definite pro. They listen to their users!

    User Experiance

    Reviewed 3 years ago

    Overall I feel the Service is good, reliable and quick. The interface for the most part is great and clear. The system is easy to navigate through and also, very easy to set up if setting up for the first time..

    Pros

    I have used this Cloud Based Servicedesk for some time now. I find that the interface is very nice to look at. Customization to the templates is very easy to manage and create. The permissions behind the system is also very easy to manage. We use it for Asset Management, Problem Management, Change Management, Service Tickets. Also, we have some users that use it for internal Project Management....

    Cons

    As the interface is very heavy on JAVA I find that sometimes the system will just throw a wobbly and then do a random refresh and in some cases, you end up losing a lot of text you had just put in. We have also had some issues with the Asset Management side of the system where we have just randomly lost some assets which have resulted in a call/ticket to ManageEngine. That said these have been sorted in a timely manner.

    Lots of useful features; But counter-intuitive and clunky overall

    Reviewed 6 years ago

    We migrated from Spiceworks - a freeware ticket system to - ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus. While it is better than Spiceworks, I definitely think we bought the wrong solution. Implementing and customizing ServiceDesk took over a year. Support is absolutely terrible, it's all based out of India so there is a timezone difference and a major language barrier. It was very often that they would not reply...

    Pros

    Advanced Customization, in-depth reporting, lots of add-on tools (more than just a ticketing system)

    Cons

    Everything is counter-intuitive and not user friendly. The support is awful. There seems to be no application development to fix their shortcomings and flaws.

    SD+ as a helpdesk tool

    Reviewed 3 months ago

    Overall, a good product in a sea of expensive options.

    Pros

    Setup many years ago, and still in use today. Does all the tasks we require.

    Cons

    Can be a bit of a burden to update with only command line automated options.

    Best Servicedesk Product EVER!

    Reviewed 4 years ago

    I set this up as ticketsystem for our company and users have an easy platform to create tickets instead of calling. This works like a charm and even users with little computerexperience can create tickets. Also the solutions part of servicedesk is awesome. We upgraded our entire IT deaprtment with this product, bye bye shard IT-mailbox!!

    Pros

    I love the fact that is is simple in use. You can isntall it yourself, you can customise it the way you want and that is all sooo easy. Updating the product is a piece of cake and best part is that you can make the program like you need it.

    Cons

    Nothing! Only pros pros pros! Even when there is a issue, the support team is on top of it. WOW!
