    If your budget is really tight, then JitBit is not for you. It's kind of pricey. That said, JitBit HelpDesk is very robust--we've never had one second of downtime in my two years of using it. It depends on what's important to you. If you need rock-solid Help Desk and stellar, trouble-free performance, then JitBit it. If not, there are alternatives that are much less expensive. The cloud version might be less expensive for companies that don't need an on-premise solution.

    It is helpful when someone wants to reassign issues and delegate tasks to other co-workers. However, it is not a good place for documentation because it is difficult to navigate older issue tickets. This is my personal experience with RightNow, an Oracle application used to manage our incident reports and project tracking documents

    Pros
    JitBit Software
    • Fantastic ticketing system to keep track of old conversations from clients.
    • Fantastic analytics and metric tracking.
    • Fantastic for sharing relationships with a customer. Generally, this would be a salesperson sharing an onboarding with a support person, but I think you could get creative with it. JitBit is very flexible.
    • Super easy to learn and use. If you can use your email, you can use JitBit.

    • It kept a log of all our issue tickets going back many years.
    • Oracle made it easy to collaborate on issue tickets and work with my team members.
    • It offered a number of features for formatting and inserting images and links, to make our issue tickets resemble an email.
    • Oracle helped our department to delegate issue tickets and monitor each other's projects.

    • The search function was very poor, which made it difficult to find our issue tickets in RightNow.
    • The Reply feature was kind of messy at times, it was difficult to find out who originally sent in tickets and reply all to people.
    • It could have looked a bit sleeker, it looked somewhat outdated in the RightNow function.

    JitBit just had the feature set at the cost point we were willing to spend. Nothing against the other products, but this one just fit our model better.

    Return on Investment
    JitBit Software
    • JitBit has neither had a positive nor a negative effect on our ROI. The reason is that we had to have a Help Desk solution that is secure and well-supported.
    • JitBit does cost real money. The least expensive on-premise option is $1,699, which might have a negative impact on your budget, but I'd have to say that it's worth it--at least for us.
    • Trouble-free, practically maintenance-free, Help Desk software has a positive impact on our technician time spent on it.

    • It was helpful because it was our only system for organizing incident reports, and it was where I worked 70% of the time to correspond with our customers.
    • The interface was sometimes time-consuming to use, and I wondered if there would have been a more streamlined program to use. It made our work seem slow at times.
    • This program did provide us with a back-log of all of our issues, so it was important for us to use to in order to find repeated incident reports.
