Modern PSA for IT Providers and more

5.0 2 years ago

Pros:

Helpdesk setup, ticket automations, the way billing can be handled and setup, reporting, where do i stop. The product is extremely customisable which allows the product to grow and scale as you do.

Cons:

It can get complicated, some UI elements arent everywhere, multiple ways to do the same thing.

Easily the Best PSA We've Used

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: Overall, I have absolutely no complaints with HaloPSA. From our first interaction, the company has been professional and extremely responsive. The product implementation was painless, and support while learning the software has been near immediate. Now that it's in place, our clients have nothing but good things to say about their experience with the software. Ticket submittal and tracking, documentation, a custom service catalog, and countless other benefits have allowed us to provide them with a streamlined professional experience.

Pros:

Halo stands out as the most customizable and easy to implement software we've tried. Once the initial learning curve was passed, we've come to realize we can do almost anything we need to from within this software. (So much so that we've been able to save some money and eliminate other products from our stack.) Our clients love the user portal. It's incredibly easy to use and presents a professional, well thought out experience. And, once again, the customizable nature of the software lets us structure it to our practices and procedures instead of forcing us into their methodologies.

Cons:

While overall easy to use; there is a bit of a learning curve as to where everything is located within the software. The customizable nature of Halo lends itself to a complicated interface, but the developers have done a wonderful job in making it as intuitive as possible.

Your Service Desk Ticketing Partner

4.0 12 months ago

Comments: The best ticketing application I have used to date. I spend more time in HaloPSA than I do in my own home.

Pros:

Ease of customisation, functionality and diverse range of uses. HaloPSA should be used by any serious MSP.

Cons:

Some minor annoyances exist, however these purely depend on each individuals workflow and are all easily adjustable.

Quite flexible compared to competition…

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Generally speaking, it's relatively easy to learn and our whole team was running pretty smoothly after just a day or two of really using it consistently.

Pros:

The flexibility allowed us to operate closer to our original workflow whereas no other in this space did. We have a dispatcher that schedules appointments for the techs rather than techs just grabbing tickets from the queue, which no other platform we tested was conducive to doing.

Cons:

It can be quite confusing, especially the user configuration of the ticket views and some other settings.

Top quality Service Desk software

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: Nethelpdesk has revolutionised our helpdesk team. The team is now logging many more tickets than previously as it is so easy to do so, and we are able to respond much quicker to incoming tickets. We are able to use the reporting to analyse the ticket trends and any support problems we have and act on these quickly. Cannot recommend the software enough!

Pros:

We've been using NHD for just over 4 months, and couldn't be happier with the software. It is very configurable, allowing you to change workflows for your specific needs. We took advantage of consultancy when we initially signed up, which helped us to get up and running within a few days. We worked very closely with our consultant who was knowledgeable and able to help us change the look and feel to make it a little more familiar to what we were used to. We are utilising the phone system integration allowing us to log tickets within 5 seconds of the call completion, with most of the required information being collected without any input. Nethelpdesk is incredibly configurable, you can configure it to meet your exact needs. This can be daunting at first as there is often multiple ways to complete the same thing, but there is an option for almost everything. If you do require help the support team are generally very responsive and helpful. The development team are very responsive, and will often patch a bug or improvement you find within a few days/weeks. The feature development is very fast and multiple big features have been developed for the new web ui in the last few months. The reporting functions are again very configurable and if you need an additional report created the support team can do this for you. The dashboard feature has enabled us to show basic helpdesk statistics on a TV in the office which helps everyone keep track of how we're performing.

Cons:

The web application is unfortunately not as slick as the desktop web interface. The mobile site is okay, but a new app would be a better alternative.

Flexible helpdesk software

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: We've been able to use Nethelpdesk to improve tracking of our billable hours by making our administration of helpdesk work less of a drag. The option to access the database has also enabled us to expand any functionality with our own tooling where we found the fit to our processes wasn't fully realised. Summarised, it's enabled us to do our work as MSPs better than anything we've tried before.

Pros:

Compared to many of the industry leaders we've tried, like Autotask and Connectwise, we find Nethelpdesk a refreshing alternative for work on the helpdesk. We've opted to self-host the software which already enables us to get much more responsive software and database access to make our own reports on top of the report manager in Nethelpdesk itself. Most everything in the system in configurable to work with your processes if you wish. The core is a helpdesk solution, but integrated are a small CRM, an asset tracking, sales and po system and (sale) item system that are great supporting tools.

Cons:

The only cons we have with the system are small quality of life problems. Fields that might be better on a different position, email history is always the entire ticket and requires you make different tickets if you contact a vendor and want to evade sending other communication to the vendor (you can manually edit old emails out before sending though!). We don't have any big cons that inhibit our work, anyplace the software wasn't a full fit we've made our own extensions using our own programmers directly with the database.

HaloPSA Review

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: HaloPSA has been a joy to use. We have tried several systems, including many of the top names and have either found them to be much to overly complex, inconsistent in layout or simply not delivering the features they promised. HaloPSA has been the only one that has really delivered in all of these areas and is very competitively priced indeed. Also, of special note, HaloPSA's support team are very helpful, responsive and thorough which makes the whole experience so much better and enjoyable.

Pros:

The system is well designed with a fresh and modern look and interface. It is intuitive and can be as complex or simple as you want it to be. Love all the integrations with new ones added all the time.

Cons:

As with any other PSA product worth its salt, HaloPSA can be complicated to get everything configured how you want in order to get the most out of it. However, this is a criticism I would level at any decent and comprehensive PSA systems. They need to be complicated in order to be flexible and cover as many uses as possible and for the uninitiated or trained, this can make it more difficult to get things setup the way you want.

Effective Helpdesk System

5.0 5 years ago

Pros:

We have used NetHelpDesk for many years, it transformed the way we organised our helpdesk ticketing. After several tries using other software, we installed a trial version of NetHelpDesk which we hosted on our own server, it was up and running in hours, easily integrated into our Exchange mail system. Any issues we had were soon resolved by their support team. I would recommend this to anyone who needs a robust helpdesk system.

Cons:

At first, we were a little overwhelmed by the many modules available, but we found we could cut out the modules we didn’t need making life a lot simpler for the operators.

Has a Lot of Options and Integration, and Excellent Customer Support

5.0 6 months ago

Comments: I think there are so many excellent options to help customize everything for your company, however I have to reach out to customer services for a lot of help as the guides they provide are not always as detailed as they could be. However their customer service always helps me figure out what needs to be done or helps me fix issues. Love it!

Pros:

There are SO many ways to customize your company!

Cons:

The guides provided are not at comprehensive as they could be.

really good, made things so much easier

5.0 8 years ago

Comments: Been using NetHelpDesk for a while now and it is amazing. we use it across all our departments so its easy to communicate between departments rather than using different systems and not being able to cross over. The integration with Microsoft SCCM was another one of the main reasons we chose NetHelpDesk and it seamlessly fits together. The after sales support is fantastic, any time we have got in contact there has been a resolution over the phone then and there or pretty soon after if it needs to be worked on by developers. Would highly recommend the software to anyone, with so many features it could work in any type of business regardless of size and industry.

Pros:

After sales support cross department use integration with other programs

Cons:

haven't found any yet
