SolarWinds Service Desk - My Take
What do you like best about the product?
I like it for managing our service tickets. For our team of three, it is a great way to track, update, and assign priority to issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish we could tailor it a little bit more to our exact needs. it seems like more of a "here it is" type of product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for issue management. We can see each other's tickets and help out if necessary. It is also good to use for problem history. We can't document everything we do, so sometimes we use it to problem solve.

Some customization options are limited in ways that don't make sense. Reporting functionality needs work- it takes a lot of effort to get useful data out of it.

The Best so far.

Real-time, User Friendly. The social media vibe using the comment section and notification for communication makes it a lot easier to communicate and document the case.

Get ServiceDesk
What do you like best about the product?
I was pleased with the SolarWinds Rep during the initial request for information. The Rep was very professional and attentive to the needs that ServiceDesk will solve for the company. I like that SolarWinds allows a free trial of the product before purchasing to get a real feel of how it works and it's capabilities. The support of the onboarding staff is unmatched, they provide you with plan, many information sources, and excellent customer service.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not necessarily a dislike, but getting confused as where a particular feature is when performing the initial setup.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Constantly updating Excel worksheets to track inventory and changes. Having a central location for IT request for the IT team, rather than combing through emails. I'm confident that our change management will be nearly flawless for our SOC2 audit.
User Friendly
What do you like best about the product?
Incident management is the best feature, in my opinion. This is something we desperately needed, and the ease of use made our end users adapt quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
My least favorite, but potentially most helpful feature is the asset management piece. I feel the inventory functionality could be a little easier to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using this platform for change management, incident management and much more. Our biggest benefit aside from better incident management is how it has assisted us with organizing our change management process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great solution!
