Freshdesk Omni vs. SysAid

For a typical technical support help desk use case Freshdesk Omni is great! It has the advanced features of automating responses and canned answers where appropriate. The AI functionality seems good but not something we are leveraging at this point given the volume of tickets.

SysAid is Great for IT Support. Tickets can be easily entered using the portal that has a more modern look and feel. We have also used SysAid for our Customer Service Team. Tickets can come in through email or direct access through the cloud. They no longer get lost in the shuffle. Reports can be produced for the managers to better undersand where issues are.

• For any service request , FD quickly categorization, prioritization, and resolution of various support requests.
• Its automation features help reduce mannual efforts. Ensuring faster response times and smoother workflows.
• The customizable interface also makes it easy to tailor the system to specific admin needs, enhancing overall efficiency

Incentivized

• Ease of use for end users creating tickets from their own Self-Service Portal (which is tied into Windows Active Directory so no login is needed).
• Ease of use and management of tickets by the IT staff.
• Flexibility. We currently have IT teams associated with a single program, a single department, and all other IT items. SysAid allows us to easily manage this, add to it, change it, etc.
• Support - SysAid support has remained consistently great throughout the years that we have had the product. That is a fairly rare thing for hosted solutions these days.
• Expandability. We have a lot more that we can still do with the product and are working on expanding what it can do as we move forward in time. There is a lot to this product overall.

• Setting up Freshdesk Omni with Dialpad and Amazon Connect requires multiple configurations, API integrations, and permissions that may be difficult for non-technical users.
• Adding Manual Call logs
• Some users report delays in ticket updates or lag in call pop-ups, especially during high call volumes.

• [I would like it if the] Due Date [could] recalculate if a ticket has been stopped (awaiting user).
• [The] dashboard could have more options when creating a new graphic.
• [The] end user portal [could offer] the ability to customize more info, like font and adding more images.

Because through SYSAID is how the operation of all IT is carried out and in this way the performance indicators of the services, systems, operation, trends, workloads, project control and their deviations are known; as well as the requests for changes and requirements that are requested by both users and that is where the system improvement projects are triggered, such as change controls, which by the way are audit topics.

Utilizing a unified platform has successfully reduced the resolution time for customer-facing issues. This streamlined approach enhances efficiency and generates valuable insights that can be leveraged to improve our services and better understand customer needs, ultimately leading to a more satisfying experience for our clients.

It is a very simple tool to use, the training required to implement it is minimal and it is also very simple for end users. There is a quick guide to configure and it was the only thing we used to configure the tool. The response of the users was good to the implementation because they did not feel that it was a big change that complicated the request of tasks by the IT department.

Another of the benefits of sysaid is that it is highly available when working in on-premise environments.The only times the system is down is when a restart of the services is required to add a new feature. Apart from that, we have not had any problems.In the case of the cloud, the only condition I have seen where sysaid is not available is because the internet link is down or damaged.

In the case of system performance, I have seen that no matter the number of assets and users, Sysaid responds in the same way and at the same speed. The reports that are scheduled do not have any details because they arrive directly to your email. In the same way, when it is integrated with other systems, for example through the API or by email, we have not seen any failure due to the integration. It works very well with or without integrations.

I have had nothing but positive experiences working with the SysAid support team. There are multiple pathways to request and receive support, which are all connected with each other. I get an efficient and effective response most of the time and when there is not immediately a good answer, they create a support request to follow up for resolution.

My team was greatly assisted and trained well. Despite the time zone difference the trainer made every effort to be available during times that were suitable for us and the assistance and help offered was extremely appreciated by my team. A wonderful experience by the team.

The training I received was very good, they gave me tasks to carry out and then they checked what I had done.It was gratifying that the instructor noticed that I had made very fast progress because I had done the implementation myself and it was very fast. At least I remember that after 5 days I had already finished almost 90% of all the implementation tasks.

In the initial stage we implement separate SysAid servers for head and branch offices. When we managed to link up our offices via point to point VPN, we manage to console them into one server. All the assets and devices on branch office were divert back to the server in head office

1) Price is also a point to decide, other Service Providers were providing similar features but the prices were slightly on a higher side. 2) Coming to feature comparison, JIRA offers whole lot of other features but currently we did not require them and Zoho had few less features comparing to Freshworks

The value of SysAid just seemed to be much better than Kaseya. The review was relatively short with Kaseya, but I immediately liked what SysAid offered. The overall capability compared to the costs associated with SysAid made it a great choice.
