Pros:

Cloud based application and ability to access everywhere.

Cons:

The difference in the admin area to the technician portal is a little bit confusing at times. I believe that the back end admin area needs upgrading to the FLEX environment.

We love how Vivantio has dramatically streamlined the IT processes

5.0 last year

Comments: Centralised and streamlined our ticket solution away from emails, teams and walk-up. Removed duplication of effort, combined with very simple ITAM and IT CRM. We have identified non-IT process which are "ticket-like" and built those in, too.

Pros:

We love the very simple and effective design for tickets (from both user/engineer aspect) and that this i provides us an all-in-one solution.

Cons:

The out of the box reports aren't quite as 'snappy' as we would like, but we have in-house report designers who have built reports to suit business needs.

My Vivantio Review

3.0 8 years ago

Comments: Overall, vivadesk is quite good. the incident management and notes being dislayed on the main screen is very good. i'd prefer if the calls could be viewed in one form, that I could scroll though. the tabs are quite slow to transition and throughout the day this adds up. if all the information was available from one scrollable page, that would be great

Pros:

Overall, vivadesk is quite good. the incident management and notes being dislayed on the main screen is very good.

Cons:

Outstanding flow and control

4.0 last year

Pros:

There is a massive list of Pro's, control and visibility of tickets. Knowing where the ticket is when customers check is invaluable.

Cons:

building ticket flow in the background has been challenging, but, our flow is complex and includes integration with Devops

A solid incident management tool.

4.0 7 years ago

Comments: All time and incidents easily logged and followed, with easy to use queues for each individual user to keep track of each agent. We're also able to quickly create and view KB articles on the fly to transfer common knowledge.

Pros:

Clean interface and easy to use. Highly customisable in regards to queues, and an easy to use scheduling system to schedule various automated tickets, with checks or standard template incidents.

Cons:

It can be quite slow to quickly switch between tickets if you need to compare information between multiple incidents.

The best solution for many management services

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: I consider it a more complete tool that I can definitely recommend.

Pros:

It is a software that serves to manage many services, in my case it facilitates the processes of attention to the user, with an excellent interface that facilitates its use, which makes it very safe and reliable. Improves and automates the process of incident management in the users of our services and IT support through support services for ticket activation, expansion and support routing.

Cons:

In general, the software is excellent, however, there are functions at the moment of managing the incidents that cause some errors but do not affect the functionality.

Pros:

My favorite feature is the filters. I can cover multiple sites and check all of my team mates ticket queues with one click of a button. This really comes in handy during holidays when I am covering multiple sites.

Cons:

It can be quite slow to quickly switch between tickets if you need to compare information between multiple incidents.

Vivanto ITSM great software in an easy to use package

5.0 8 years ago

Comments: We use vivantio on a daily basis, and find it to be an exceptional and versatile tool, it makes tracking and linking of assets to " users" an easy task, the reports and dashboards which are in the system and can easily be created are also very versatile and provide a wealth of information, to such an extent that other areas of the business are now potentially looking at using vivantio as their ticketing system rather than it just being used by the IT Department. The support team is also exceptional, I can guarantee that when I raise a ticket I receive a response within a max of 10 mins with my reference number and 99.9% of the time when I get a written response and usually get a detailed guide on how to resolve my query. The overall application cannot be faulted and I would recommend the software to anyone.

Pros:

it's easy to use once configured correctly the information you can get out of the system is very user friendly and easily accessible

Cons:

If linked to active directory, if a user entry is removed from ad it is very hard to locate any previously raised incidents for the person.

Excellent Product

4.0 8 years ago

Comments: Having worked in IT support for a number of years across different industry sectors, I have used a number of different Helpdesk ticketing/service management products. Vivantio is easy to modify which makes it easy to give a better quality environment and ensure good adoption rates from your users. The customer portal we set up has been very well received. It's quick, responsive and overall the best product I've used! Highly recommended!

Pros:

Easy and quick to modify and use. Ability to monitor a raft of IT Services such as change management, service desk tickets, problem management. Aligns to ITIL best practices.

Cons:

Web views can sometimes be slow to update and cannot switch easily between windows if you need to go back and check something.

Comments: we have been using Vivantio for the past 4 years. To date we have been pleased with the product. From an end user perspective it is simple and easy to use. From a tech perspective, since i administer the system, has been easy to configure. I am very pleased with the Support that we receive, Andrew Stevens has been awesome. He has worked very hard to ensure that the system meets our business needs. Whenever we have requirement he is constantly finding ways to be able to implement them. There still are areas where there can be some improvements, would like to see better dashboards and reporting.

Pros:

Ease of use and configuration

Cons:

Dashboards and reports

Getting Our Monies Worth

4.0 8 years ago

Comments: Are are taking more than full advantage of the ITSM offering from Vivantio. We have a LARGE number of advanced features being used. Although sometimes we suffer some performance slumps for a good percentage of the time the system does what we need. The Vivantio ITSM software doesn't have some of the customisation skills that other offerings out there, but because of this any issues we do experience are fixed quickly by there support team.

Pros:

SaaS offering, Customer Portal, and easy Email to Ticket integration

Cons:

Limitied customisation

Simple and easy tool to use.

3.0 8 years ago

Comments: This tool is one of our basic tools here at Managed services. We use it daily for our ticketing system. It has improved a lot since last year but there are still a couple of things that need improvement. 1) It needs to speed up a bit. Sometimes the website is a bit slow and the whole experience is frustrating. 2) You cannot download multiple files at once. For example, if you have more than one file attached in a ticket, you have to manually download them one by one. 3) It does not work very well in 4:3 screens, but this is undersandable. :) 4) Under Company/Contacts, you used to see a lot more information, such as phone numbers. Now this functionality is lost. 5) Every time we raise a change, the suggested articles are being randomly displayed, in which have nothing to do with the change itself. For arguments sake, lets say that there are 2 articles: one that explains how to plant trees and another on how to do groceries. Now if you raise a change (i.e on fixing your car) , it shows the 2 articles as "suggested". In reality, these 2 articles have nothing in common with the change itself!

Pros:

Easy to use

Cons:

Slow, CSS is not very pretty.

Works as intended.

5.0 8 years ago

Comments: Has always been easy to use and the support we received has been almost perfect.
Only some minor issues in updating and customizing the customer facing self-service portal which doesn't include all the options we need.
Other than that, more than happy to use Vivantio in future.

Pros:

Customisability

Cons:

Speed of use could do with a little improvement
