Reviews of SysAid
SysAid review
Comments:
We are using SysAid on daily basis as its our main ticketing system.
Its also our main asset manager as we are using Asset list as our storage manager in our organization. Recently we started using SysAid chatbot. At most times SysAid is working fine. I really appreciate notification tab as it can be very useful in case of any big implementation or outages. Overall 9/10
Pros:
SysAid is perfect when it comes to ticket management. Creating ticket is simple, list of options is pretty well managed, category pick up is also very solid. End users are using Self service portal as both communication tool and also self support tool. Users are also using options as knowledge base/ support chatbot. Overall it reduced many simpler problems which users experienced. Simple things can be resolved by end users so IT can focus more on other tickets.
Cons:
SysAid have small bugs like login page error or scenario when you are creating ticket and you click on other tab it can freeze and you wont be able to pick category as it will go blank. Or in some scenarios the SysAid page randomly refresh and your ticket is gone.

Vishal's Review on SysAid
Comments: Overall, SysAid has significantly enhanced our ticket management efficiency and user self-service capabilities, leading to faster resolution times and streamlined operations. However, its limitations in customization and integration can sometimes pose challenges.
Pros:
I most appreciate SysAid’s automated ticket routing and prioritization, which streamline our support processes and ensure efficient handling of requests. The comprehensive self-service portal also stands out for empowering users to solve common issues independently.
Cons:
I liked least SysAid’s limited customization options, which restrict how we can tailor the platform to fit specific organizational needs. Additionally, the complexity involved in integrating SysAid with other systems often requires significant effort and additional support.

Great helpdesk/ITSM package.
Comments: Great help getting started and als with the support team after implenentation, they truly helped me in getting started. They truly listen to their customers for when they bring up new things like intune support for asset management.
Pros:
The way AI is actually helpful for myself on the helpdesk side but also for the end user with a problem and it is not just another marketing thing, and the marketplace with really useful add-ons and integrations like Zapier.
Cons:
Setting up, but that is a problem you have with all new tools.

SysAid for ITSM and Operations
Comments: SysAid are great tool and it's not just IT Service Management, HR< and fleet department also use it. e.g., Fleet uses to book and schedule for vehicle rooting maintenance.
Pros:
Reporting, Analytic and performance review
Cons:
The Complexity. Sometimes, it's difficult to find some features
Effective Management with Room to Grow
Comments: My overall experience with SysAid has been positive in terms of its core functionalities, such as asset management, work order tracking, and automated workflows for purchase requisitions. These features have significantly improved our efficiency, especially in our small IT department. However, the user interface could be more user-friendly, and we've encountered some challenges with the Self-Service Portal, particularly with the password reset function. While the out-of-the-box experience was decent, we feel there is potential for further enhancements to fully meet our needs. Overall, SysAid has been a valuable tool, but we're looking forward to improvements, particularly in the interface and customization options.
Pros:
What I liked most about SysAid is its strong capabilities in asset management and workflows, particularly how it effectively tracks and manages IT assets by linking Configuration Items (CIs) together. Additionally, the automated workflows for purchase requisitions and work order transitions are highly efficient, allowing tasks to flow seamlessly between team members.
Cons:
What I liked least about SysAid is the user interface (UI), especially within the workflows and Admin Portal, which lacks simplicity and could benefit from a more intuitive design. Additionally, the Self-Service Portal has had recurring issues, particularly with the password reset function not working as intended.

SysAid Review
Comments:
It is user friendly.
Some support agents are very helpful indeed.
There is an issue in note boxes. When someone type a note in the note box an accidently clicks outside of the not box without saving the note, the whole note box disappear. So we have to type the note again. Hope this will be fixed soon.
Pros:
It is easy to handle. Automation saves a lot of time. Also, we can create workflows very easily according to the requirement. It is very advanced. And we can customize them. There are support agents to ask help if we face any issue. Dashboards helps to get a clear and fast understanding about some data.
Cons:
In my personal opinion the prices are on the higher side. Some support agents are not helpful at all. They kept typing same thing over and over again without proving a solution or alternative.
My experience with SysAid
Comments: As an end user, we have a self-service portal that is very easy to understand, access open tickets, interact with analysts, etc...
Pros:
the practicality of handling tickets where analysts have several tools available in the form to use, in conversation with the user they can send notes on the ticket or send an email to the user, messages that reach the user instantly , and in the analyst's activities part he can detail the steps he took on that ticket, everything is very detailed and the history is saved.
Cons:
We have some configurations in the environment that could be made with mass inclusion via an Excel spreadsheet and for this reason they take longer to be ready, such as: routing, SLA deadline, list-type fields, etc...
SysAid a complete ticketing software
Comments: I am satisfied with the new intermigrations.
Pros:
a complete ticketing system that can be used in many fields.
Cons:
most of its services are not included in the main package.
Using SysAid as an administrator
Comments: It was a great experience in using SysAid. I was able to learn basic administration in very short period of time.
Pros:
It allows administrators to customize ticket templates depending on the requirements for ticket resolution.
Cons:
Does not have some of the basic features in designing a template (radio button).
SysAid ticketing system
Comments: I am very pleased with the software and the entire system.
Pros:
Very easy setup and deployment. Easy to use, very little training required to use.
Cons:
Nothing I don't like, just need the patch management to work better.
Good system but improvements could be made
Pros:
System is easy to learn and displays all the information that you need for example tickets about to breach sla, when the ticket was raised etc. I like the fact that a user can email the help desk email and it automatically creates a ticket. Might be something the company implemented on their own but I’m not sure.
Cons:
ui is a bit outdated compared to competitors such as service now, Hesk etc . Can be very slow at times

Built in email feature that allows you to send mail to requesters or support teams without having to open your mailing software.
Cons:
Spooling of reports can sometimes be hectic due to the size of data
SysAid helps me keep my IT tasks organized and on track. It's been a game changer for my productivity
Pros:
The customizable dashboard and ITIL tools make managing tickets and assets a breeze. Saves me a lot of time and hassle
Cons:
The reporting features could be more user-friendly. It takes some time to get used to and create the reports I need
