We use SysAid's suite of tools, but primarily utilize the online ticketing system and AI agent integration.
Pros
Ticketing System- organize to-do items in a single location
Simple setup and maintenance of AI bot and data pools
Cons
Deploying SysAid agent in our environment proved to be challenging.
Documentation on setting up data pool for AI agent to reference a SharePoint site was incomplete.
Likelihood to Recommend
Deployment of the SysAid agent for our remote employees has proven to be a real challenge and there is not a remote access tool for android devices. If those were sorted out I would consider a higher score.

The system is used in my organization as a call and knowledge management system for the IT department. We have been using it for over 10 years. The system is user-friendly and efficient for managing all the technical information of the IT staff when handling and closing calls. It is easy to search within the system, and it offers many analysis and graphing options. Additionally, the system integrates with AD, mail servers, and other tools. It also has a client installed that monitors all the workstations in the organization, collects statistics, and allows for the generation of numerous reports on the organization's assets. In my version, there are still no AI capabilities, which I currently see as the only drawback.
Pros
calls and knowledge management
reports
assets management
Cons
Organizational knowledge retention

Tickets get refreshed faster. There is no latency
Easily trainable to new staff

Our business use for SysAid is primarily to keep track of active tickets from our end users but over the course of SysAid's evolution it's bought about more features we have been able to take advantage of and some features we are just beginning to.
We have got our assets tracked within the portal now and are starting to use their BI analytics to track our end user issues and as a department getting ahead of issues before they hit us
Pros
Ticket journey tracking
BI Analytics
User friendly
Cons
Spaces UI refresh while editing a ticket causing any update to fail
Email automation - more distinct rulings allowing for better routing once into SysAid
Priority matrix forcefully pushing tickets down in priority

I can only really mention my experience as an experience where I feel it's well suited which would be within the IT field. The software feels like it's built around this industry with how it allows me and my team to track our incidents, log any change requests and communicate to our end users in a user friendly UI.
Our firm has used SysAid for over five years now. SysAid has effectively reduced the amount of time IT staff was needed for many daily tasks. SysAid provides help desk ticketing, remote control, hardware and software tracking, and now includes AI. The AI feature is going to be a game changer for us. Users now have the capability to access the Self Service Portal and ask a question regarding an incident or request and receive an answer immediately. If the AI generated answer is not sufficient or does not resolve the problem, it will create a ticket that will be assigned to an IT staff member. This will greatly reduce the amount of time staff is needed at a user's workstation.
Pros
Help Desk Ticketing works well and integrates easily with e-mail. IT staff is immediately notified when a new ticket is created.
Device management and inventory is easily tracked within SysAid. A full report is easily generated for a device detailing hardware and software specifics.
SysAid Copilot AI is phenomenal. It has been designed with the end user in mind. The user can speak to the prompt in natural language and expect a custom response according to their incident or service needs.
Cons
The built in SysAid remote control feature could be improved upon. It often does not render the full screen and the pointer does not line up with the location on the remote computer.
A file transfer capability would be beneficial. TeamViewer, which is integrated into our SysAid, resolves this, but it would be nice to have this feature built directly into the system.
Likelihood to Recommend
SysAid just works. For the number of built in features, it is relatively easy to use and get started with. Getting started with SysAid is hassle free as well. Once setting up the RDS on prem, rolling out to all of the machines is a breeze. The cloud service takes over from there. Device scans will immediately begin sending data to SysAid cloud that provides hardware and software information.
