A great tool for incident management

  • April 18, 2018

What do you like best about the product?
customizability is great in this platform. We can create and modify dashboards to better serve our needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Interface needs more buttons for navigation, should have more themes, like darker ones since some people work at night and it'd be better for the eyes.

We are now managing our incidents from Cherwell. Efficiency is something that really improved for me with CSM.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't add too much unnecessary information to your dashboards.

What do you like best about the product?
I like how it ties in with our helpdesk, auto-creates tickets, inventory. It works well with our node name systems, and can tie in with Bomgar to help with our Remote Desktop integrations.

Lagging behind the competition

  • January 29, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Cherwell allows you to customize pretty much any aspect of the software to meet your needs. There is a lot of automating that can be done that will help cut down overhead.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface does not seem to be well thought out. It appears to be designed to make certain tasks easier, but it ends up having the opposite effect. Most of the time we need to call support to figure out how to do something since their interface is not intuitive at all and the documentation is lacking.

Out of the box, the interface also looks very dated. Unless you have someone dedicated to graphic design, your self-service portal will end up looking like something from the 90's. The editor also has a very steep learning curve which should not be in the day and age. Most of their competition has drag and drop editors that are very easy to use while Cherwell's editor is overly complex.

The knowledge base is also very lacking compared to its competitors. You must be signed in to view knowledge base articles which almost defeats the purpose as you want your knowledge to be as easily accessible as possible. You also cannot link directly to a knowledge article which again makes it harder to promote the knowledge base.

Last, their update release cycle is lagging behind their competitors. There is only one update per year where most of their competitors are updating either monthly or even multiple times a month.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Cherwell primarily for incident management. Out of the box it is capable of meeting our needs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look into some other cloud solutions such as FreshService, Jira Service Desk, or Samanage along with Cherwell. Most cloud solutions are cheaper than Cherwell and much easier to use.

User experience for Cherwell

  • January 29, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Cherwell is a good software to record informations and details that we collected when we work with a client. The ease of use is what I like about.
What do you dislike about the product?
The layout of Cherwell is not very good as there is no way to just use keyboard to complete the whole ticket. One of the column has to be clicked by mouse, which slows down the process of creating a ticket.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Good for keeping track with the work.

User experience

  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The layout of Cherwell provides an excellent user experience. It is easy and simple for daily use.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is unable to just use Tab on the keyboard to complete the ticket.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Cherwell to store information we have with a client. For example, work request.

An excellent tool for managing and assigning tasks

  • January 19, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to see at a glance what tickets are assigned to me and what has yet to be resolved.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a little clunky. Even after the learning curve there are things that just don't behave the way that it seems they should. For example having to scrollbthe window down to set an issue to pending? There is plenty of empty space above.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Trouble tickets are entered and get assigned to someone to resolve. It ensures that multiple people are not working on the same issue. It also gives a central place to document how the issue was resolved so that if the same issue occurs in the future we can save time in knowing how to handle.
