SysAid Review
- The relationship of the tickets with the equipment to keep a history of failures
- The creation of tickets and the suggestions of possible solutions at the time they create these for the end user
- Inventory management, upcoming maintenance dates, warranties expiration date alerts, etc. They are very effective and very helpful for better administration.
- The remote support function I think could be improved
- The alerts module I think could be easier to configure
- In the reports module it could be improved for the creation of new reports
- no training
Sysaid at Bradfords
- Managing incidents for our Service Desk[.]
- Notifying end users of ticket updates[.]
- Asset Management - Listing software on each laptop[.]
- Office integration[.]
- Report writing could be simpler[.]
- Client upgrade process could be smoother[.]
SysAid Help Desk Makes IT Management Fun
- Creation of tickets from various sources - desktop icon, function key, email, voicemail
- Maintains company assets - location, purchase date, expiration of warranty, etc.
- Catalogs hardware and software installed on each asset
- Notifies the end-user of new Notes added and changes in ticket status
- Reporting is above average, but it is always on my list of needed improvements.
- [I would appreciate] query building for those special conditions that every company comes across.
- [I would also appreciate] integration with Teams (in beta now) and DevOps (through third party).
If you want to implement ITIL, SysAid must buy!

SysAid Is a Great Value for Us and for Many Other Organizations.
- Track tickets
- Email the end-user and tech on the status
- Great knowledge base
- Inventory of our devices
- Great inventory, but sometimes it does not re-inventory when we upgrade our Windows 10 from one service pack to the next.
- If a ticket is assigned to a tech and they forgot to close the ticket, it wants to change the assigned name of the tech that worked on the ticket.
- If a ticket is pending, could not find a way to deescalate a ticket.
SysAid for the Aid of the Overworked SysAdmin

- SysAid reports have proven very helpful
- Asset Management and discovery
- Help documentation
- Sample setups or templates
Sysaid a wonderful service experience

IT services performance at a Glance
- Keep track of the incident, request, change and problems in a detailed way.
- Creating a customized workflow to design your own procedures.
- Integration with 3rd party tools as a complement.
- The support service can be improved since they provide it according to their Time Zone that is not always appropriate.
- The proactive following to check is all ok in the side of the customer.
- The translating feature can be improved for the updates on the On Premise version.
SysAid makes it all better
- Customer support is always readily available and supportive in addition to account managers who work with side by side with us to get the best out of the application.
- Always improving, allows me to customize the app to meet my needs and simplify and automate some processes freeing up valuable time for better resource management.
- Application integration, SysAid is able to be integrated with other applications, SysAid itself has many functions like remote access, chat, asset management, automation.
- create workflows allows us to automate manual processes within the organization
- Only suggestion is a better method for training, although they have professional hours for one-on-one guidance and a help tutorial, I believe there should be an online or even pre-recorded options for companies to enroll their staff. In my situation I am the only administrator which makes it difficult to get training since it's more feasible to train a group of persons.
- flexibility of the reports to allow complex formulae from excel
SysAid--the best of the best in ITSM!
- SysAid ticket management is completely customizable to fit our business needs.
- Asset management gives complete visibility into assets across the organization and reporting.
- The self-service portal is extremely user friendly and cuts down on the amount of tickets that actually make it into the queue.
- Active directory integration is fantastic.
- Customer support is excellent.
- The onboarding process is amazing and leaves no stone unturned.
- The integrated remote control piece works but we miss some features of a more robust product.
- There are tons of customizations that can be made but sometimes navigation is difficult to find a setting--but the help feature is excellent.
- Online training
User support on site and remotely
- Enable user to report any IT-related cases to IT team.
- SysAid also provides reports on asset management
- With SysAid we can monitor our servers to ensure that they are running smoothly
- We are unable to integrate SysAid with our ERP system
- SysAid does not work very well with Linux server. The agents are manually installed and data is not real time.
- We find that sometimes SNMP works and SNMP does not work with SysAid
SysAid is easy to implement and use
- Asset management
- Full visibility for user's issue and can track, chase resolution by email with an audit trail.
- Reporting number of issues occurring daily, weekly, monthly, etc.
- IT teams can track their own workloads
- Report extracts needs to be in current versions of Excel
- Layout of the forms should be easier to manage
SysAid is a remarkable helpdesk tool
- Keeps track of helpdesk calls.
- Keeps an up-to-date inventory.
- Has a great FAQ for users and technicians alike.
- A way to push the client to Mac and Linux machines.
SysAid--The ITSM Tool Worth Your Investment
- Categorization of the various different types of service or incident requests.
- Project management module. We are starting to utilize this to capture all our project related activities and tasks.
- Change management module. We are also starting to capture our changes in SysAid and therefore are able to provide reports and evidences of changes to our external auditors.
- Perhaps interfacing with monitoring tools such as PRTG. This would enable tickets to be raised from the errors that are generated from the monitoring tool.
- Business intelligence reporting, dashboards.
- Expand to manage other maintenance and tech services such as for property, vehicles, electrical appliances, etc.
- Ticket registration and tracking
- Workflow management
- Self-Service portal
- Reporting and Feed-back/Notification
- ITIL-Compliant

- Automation options (on the plus side, they listen to the users)
SysAid is a great idea to improve your service desk

Hindsight of SysAid
- SysAid ticketing process is a part of ICT services. No ticket no service.
- All ICT assets are managed via SysAid
- Deliverables as per the defined SLA by the SysAid
- All follow-ups done based on the ticket status and due date.
- Key measures of individual performance is SLA achievement of SysAid
- Ticket routing option to be more enhanced.
- There is no predefined logic to get Pass/Fail status of current SLA
- Analytics to be more customizable and advanced
- Company hierarchy is required for large scale company (such as Group > Sectors> Clusters> Branch/ Location)
- There is a limitation of timer objects
- Data archival strategy to be more enhanced
Staying with SysAid!
- Reporting is a strong point of SysAid as the reports are used when the technical team meets to discuss the status of jobs
- SysAid allows our customers to complete a survey when each ticket is closed and this gives us a good idea of our customer satisfaction
- SysAid has demonstrated that they can keep current with trends with upgrades and additions such as Automate Joe
