Alloy doesn't cost a lot and he's making a pretty good job.

I like that I can log the work and paste HTML email threads in a ticket. Also managing all of the computer in the ticketing software is a nice feature.

The best part of it was cost. We looked at several other products ranging from cost to functionality to find Alloy provided more for less.

Please keep in mind that I do not use all of the available features of this system. But I really like the features that I'm currently using.

It can be cumbersome to learn in an SMB environment with small teams and no compartmentalization.

Customer service is extremely helpful in customizing the solution to best fit your needs. Software does everything you need for helpdesk and servicedesk operations.

Some built-in features are limited and require alterations.

I appreciate the flexibility of the system, once you learn the different levels of details it contains. The customer support is fantastic and really responsive.

It is simple to use for the average technician and the user portal is good as well. The integration of software allocation and databases of all hardware on our network is a must.

We already used Network Inventory and expanding to Alloy's own help desk was a natural step. Alloy Navigator has many features for a low cost and we are slowly moving forward and using more and more.

Alloy can be as simple or as complex as you want it to be based on how you set it up. The flexibility and depth are what I love most about it.

Software is reliable, user friendly and you get the results quickly.

Good customization options and if we can't fix it ourselves, Alloy can make it.

The ease of use, ability to customize the software to our needs and the fantastic support we receive.

My administrator has also created some very helpful reports and dashboards so I can track the work that my employees complete, and provide visibility to our Executive Leadership.

We have been using Alloy for over 13 years and have no plans to change.

While Alloy can track a wide breadth of information, sometimes getting into the nuts and bolts of the data can be a bit cumbersome.

It's a part of my daily work, and it makes everything fairly simple. I'd like to explore more of the available features within the application, and I'm really excited to see what else we can do.

We use Navigator for help desk ticket and asset management and have found it quite useful.

Navigator is a good management tool for IT assets.

There is not enough sync customization that can be manipulated or adjusted for AD sync.

The best thing about Alloy Navigator is the customization. If there is something you want this software to do, it can probably do it.

At times it can be a little confusing with what seems to be duplicate areas.

It was easy to install and the self service portal was easy to navigate.

Our shop has been using this software for years because it has excellent value, with good customer support.

If you have no teams at all, individuals can be overwhelmed as their are many features to this application.

Asset tracking, good customization possibilities and Alloy seem willing to help and adapt.

We are having success consolidating information for tickets, assets and knowledge. Keeping all of these in a single place has helped us.

Our clients also find the system fairly easy to use  to submit tickets and interact with the technicians. There is always more we could be doing with this system.

The ability to get a good picture of the support organization.

Email integration for alerts on new tickets and updates on existing tickets. Training that Alloy offers is well thought out and contains tons of information.

The scripting is a bit hard to understand if you don't come from a SQL background.

The amount of customization I found to be very useful.

We've used the network inventory and it works great and the support has been top notch.

The technical support are very courtesy, knowledgeable, and professional. The migration process to Alloy Navigator 8.1 was smooth and took a few minutes to complete.

The help desk and software licensing components really save a lot of time and are easy to use. I've been able to use the software licensing piece to fulfill a Microsoft audit with ease.

I have a lot of e-mails and requests coming from my customers and it was very difficult for me to organize all of them.

3 Years experience was great. Quick email responses and Great Documentation.

UseResponse makes sure that they keep it updatable, even if they implemented many changes due to customer wishes. We are working together for 2+ years and I can not think of a better partner.

This software is very easy to use and the price is very affordable.

Because of self-hosting solution, we from time to time face minor issues with functionality, fortunately support of UseResponse team is excellent and issues are almost instantly solved.

Larger individual requirements can be solved professionally  through support or and cost-effectively consulting.

Sometimes the admin console can be a bit difficult to navigate, but all of the features are there, somewhere.

The only issue we had was around the time it took to set a ticket to complete however it seems since the latest upgrade to 4.9 the issue is no longer there.

Easy to use, highly customizable and a customer support that is second to none.

Compares to competing products at competitive price point.

Right now you are limited to either the sidebar of related articles (which keeps you in the widget) or adding a hyperlink to an artcile which opens a new browser window.

It's a good mature feature set and was fairly straight-forward to setup. They customized our Wishlist as an enterprise solution and we were impressed with the results.

We didn´t have something like this in our company before and we are very happy that we´ve found such a great tool and partner to work with.

The interface is very easy to navigate and understand plus the email integration with POP3 is very useful.

UseResponse is simply awesome. I set it up literally in ten minutes and their customer support immediately helped me in tuning up the configuration as soon as I got in touch with them.

Some functionality we wanted that wasn't available, has been delayed.

UseResponse takes care of integration and helps in every step. The software contains several product-parts that can be switched on and off as needed.

Was a little difficult to customize the theme.

We were looking for an All-in-One Solution to enable us to manage Our Customer Support Solutions, and UseResponse turned out simply great.

Simple UI with great functionality, lot of documentation and support is fantastic. Simple to implement and immediate email support.

In addition, we use the ticket system as internal workload management and can thus transparently share and manage all tasks.
