After decades of daily use, I can honestly say that Giva has played a big role in helping our helpdesk deliver consistent, quality support to our firm. It’s a platform—and a team—that I truly trust and recommend. Working with [sensitive content hidden] and his team has always been a great experience. They genuinely care about their customers and are always quick to respond when we have questions or suggestions.

We’ve been using Giva since 2017 and our organization continues to rely on this robust service desk platform for managing our complex customer service/support needs. As a healthcare billing clearinghouse serving the many different industries, we require a HIPAA-compliant solution that can handle sensitive medical data while maintaining operational efficiency. The platform's HIPAA compliance features are essential for our healthcare operations, ensuring all sensitive patient information remains secure throughout the support process. Giva's customizable dashboards and real-time reporting have dramatically improved our visibility into critical issues, enabling faster resolution times and higher first-contact resolution rates. The 24/7 USA-based technical support has been consistently responsive, typically addressing our queries within an hour. After almost a decade of partnership, we confidently recommend Giva to other healthcare organizations seeking a scalable, secure, and user-friendly service desk solution that grows with your business needs.

#### Pros

Giva has proven invaluable for supporting our diverse technology product ecosystem, which includes over a dozen different software products ranging from our BankingQ product to our Prior Authorization platform. Giva’s intuitive ticket management system allows our team to efficiently track and resolve customer issues across multiple healthcare applications while serving more than 200 employees. What particularly impresses us is Giva's staff performance reporting capabilities, which provide actionable insights into our team's productivity and response times without penalizing staff for factors beyond their control. We intend to build out our knowledge base to leverage Giva’s powerful AI Copilot that is included as standard and it’s private and covered under our BAA.

#### Cons

The new releases are very rapid and we have to read the release notes every 3 weeks, but no reconfiguration necessary. Not a serious complaint/we are pleased using Giva since 2017. Our customers are very happy...Giva helps us every day meet the high demands of a healthcare/HIPAA environment.

#### Pros

“Giva's integration with OpenAI, aptly named "Giva Copilot," is helping the IT Service Desk and about 500 IT staff harness the power of artificial intelligence to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of our healthcare organization. The integration significantly boosts productivity, allowing Agents and Managers to understand complex tickets more effectively, ultimately leading to increased customer satisfaction. By utilizing Microsoft Azure, Giva Copilot ensures that all customer data remains private and HIPAA compliant, offering a secure AI solution for sensitive environments like ours. Our Managers particularly like Giva Copilot's innovative ticket summary feature which simplifies the understanding of complex issues by generating concise summaries, which include customer sentiment and proposed next steps. The ease of use is evident as anybody can quickly generate these summaries with a simple click on the 'Summarize Ticket' button, making the integration very user-friendly.”

#### Cons

Not able to move tickets from one Service Desk to another and not able to copy NOR questionnaires.

Giva ease of use, quickly getting up and running and reporting are its big differentiators. The reports are really good. Giva really hit the nail on the head by providing reports right out-of-box that my senior leadership ask me for. My monthly presentation is usually about 12 slides based on the information I pull from Giva. It only takes me one hour to prepare, but with other systems it took me up to three hours or more to get the same information. We especially love the “Quick Tickets” feature because we're a fast-growing organization and do a lot of onboarding of new employees. We also configured twenty “Schedule Tasks” which automatically create tickets in the future for server patching, monthly and daily report generation, etc. The asset management module is fantastic because it allows us to track all our assets and they can be linked to tickets. We also use the knowledge base and about 40% of our end users log into the self-help portal. It's very, very easy to use. There are not a lot of buttons that you must click to get things done. So again, very simple to use. We plan to use the change management app soon. The dashboard really helps us increase our productivity and it is easy to customize. The SLA warnings provide a clear, precise overview of what's going on in my organization. Our facilities department is also using Giva in their own service desk to track what they're doing which is very beneficial to the Bank to leverage a single ticketing system. We striv

#### Pros

Bank of George is a fast-growing Bank in the state of Nevada with customers in more than 40 states nationwide. I've been in the IT industry for over 20 years, so I've used a lot of other IT service desk applications like BMC Track-It!, BMC FootPrints, ServiceNow, CA Unicenter, etc. Giva has many similarities to these other systems. With Giva my team has increased our productivity by 60%. We are resolving issues 40% faster. Our customer satisfaction has increased approximately 30%. Measured on a weekly basis, we close approximately 84% to 94% of new tickets each week up from only 55%. In addition to our internal team, we also have an outsourced Managed Service Provider that uses their own ticketing system. Using Giva, we have a four to one ticket ratio as compared to our MSP. This means that my team gets 75% more work done so we’re adding a lot of value to the Bank. BMC Footprints from an Administrative standpoint is more cumbersome to get around in. Giva Administration has just been phenomenal. It only took me two days to get Giva up and running. From a navigation standpoint, one of my coworkers said that it’s the easiest system she’s ever used. The Giva set-up was very, very easy and now I can go in and add new it

#### Cons

Nothing now I can think of now. Giva is a 22 year old company so a lot of work has gone into the product.

Giva is very intuitive and I never get stuck like with other systems I used in the past. Giva is a breath of fresh air! It was easy to set up Giva since it came with the most commonly used defaults and it also had draft severity levels, etc. to allow us to quickly evaluate it. We use the self-service portal to manage 40 vendors and it’s helped us to more efficiently manage 3rd parties. Now we receive well documented cases since we configured Giva to ask different questions for each item in the self-service category menu. This eliminates a ton of back and forth with customers.

I’ve increased my productivity by 30% using Giva. The KPIs widgets on the dashboard allow me to quickly see where issue are at. It’s a great visual warning system. It helps all of us plan our workload and prioritize with little effort. Giva is very simple to learn and use. We all use the tools offered in Giva to stop “reinventing the wheel” by easily leveraging and reusing information in cases. There are lots of warnings and visuals to make sure we are using the system correctly.

#### Cons

I love Giva so nothing to write about.

We are a healthcare organization providing radiology services to our patients all over the USA. We’ve been using Giva’s HIPAA compliant Customer Service software since 2016.

#### Pros

The email-to-ticket conversion functionality has been a game-changer, allowing us to easily track and validate patient requests and get them automatically routed to the right person. These features have streamlined our workflow and reduced duplicate requests, ultimately enhancing our overall efficiency. On overall functionality we rate Giva a 9 out of 10. One of its standout features is macro functionality, which has increased our productivity by approximately 30-40%. These pre-set response templates ensure consistency in our communications and have significantly reduced the number of follow up requests we receive. It not only saves time but also improves the patient’s experience by providing prompt and standardized responses.

#### Cons

We give Giva a very positive review so we don't have any negative feedback. The Giva SaaS customer service product is a real standout.

Giva’s friendly design and interface has proven to be a significant upgrade from our previous communication tools like Slack, especially for our businesses which is experiencing growth and increased ticket volumes. Despite being new to dedicated ticketing systems, our teams greatly appreciate Giva's focused approach to mastering the art of ticket management. We find Giva to be a very valuable tool for streamlining operations and improving customer service satisfaction. Our customers are also very happy using Giva! The AI-powered text rewriting and ticket summary features, while not yet widely utilized by us, offers excellent potential for enhancing communication and maintaining a consistent tone across all customer interactions.

Giva's customer service ticketing system and knowledgebase has impressed us with its intuitive organization of information, allowing our teams to efficiently navigate through tickets and gain a comprehensive view of their workload. The dashboard's presentation is exceptional, featuring customizable widgets that provide real-time insights into ticket statuses, VIP options, and team performance. Giva's robust reporting capabilities, including various layout options and the ability to easily export data to Excel, enable us to generate detailed analytics and create pivot tables for in-depth analysis.

As a children's mental health agency supporting an electronic health record (EHR) and 10 affiliate organizations, Giva has provided us with a centralized platform to manage all customer tickets efficiently.

We've also found the video tutorial library to be an excellent resource for continuous learning and feature exploration.

Giva's customizable Dashboard and Reporting features have been particularly beneficial for our HIPAA auditing purposes. The ability to easily create and manage custom forms has allowed us to tailor the system to our specific needs, enhancing our compliance with HIPAA and HITRUST (Health Information Trust Alliance). We appreciate the flexibility to rearrange dashboard elements, providing each team member with a personalized view that focuses on their specific responsibilities.

#### Pros

We’ve been using Giva for over five years and it’s to be an invaluable IT service management tool. Giva is a simple, beautiful, intuitive, and aesthetically pleasing design that’s significantly improved our productivity, especially when it comes to onboarding and offboarding processes. We know it must sound odd, calling an IT tool, “beautiful, aesthetically pleasing”, but use Giva for a while and you may come to feel the same. It’s also highly functional. We currently use three independent and uniquely configured service desks for different departments: IT service desk, Human Resources and Auditing. By utilizing Giva's parent-child ticket functionality, we've streamlined our workflows and increased efficiency by approximately 50%. Once we fully update our Giva administration config, we expect this efficiency gain to reach up to 75%, as most custom fields will be auto-filled, requiring minimal manual input.

#### Cons

We like everything about Giva and don't have any feedback to this question.

#### Pros

We are a county healthcare organization in Oregon supporting 700 end users with several healthcare apps including an electronic health record. HIPAA compliant Giva has proven to be an exceptional ticketing system for our organization, significantly enhancing our productivity and streamlining our support processes. The customizable nature of request forms is outstanding, allowing us to add specific questions and fields to each request type. This feature alone has increased our productivity by an impressive 60%, as we now receive all necessary information upfront, eliminating the need for time-consuming back-and-forth communication with busy staff members. The ticket macro functionality in Giva has revolutionized our response times and consistency. With approximately 30 pre-defined macros at our disposal, we can quickly insert standardized responses while still having the flexibility to customize them as needed. This feature has boosted our productivity by an astounding 75%, allowing us to respond to tickets much faster and more efficiently than ever before.

#### Cons

Nothing....We are getting our knowledge articles cleaned-up and ready to use with the impressive Giva Knowledge Copilot. Of course, this is on us. This will save our end users a lot of time in answering their “How To” questions on our electronic health record. But it would be cool if Giva could take unstructured blobs of information like Word docs, PDFs, etc and quickly create KB articles. We asked them for this feature and they said they are working on something like this.

We evaluated ZenDesk, Salesforce.com, Freshdesk and Zoho before deciding on Giva. Giva was the only vendor that met all of our function requirements and it’s also the easiest to use. We never heard of Giva before, but we were very impressed when we did a deep dive and thorough 30-day trial. We did not even have to talk to a sales rep for the longest time since it was so easy to configure and get information from the web site. Giva is also much more fairly priced with a bundle of all modules which included all functionality. Other vendors carve up their products and try to extract extra money. The Dashboards and reports are phenomenal. We can immerse ourselves in the data and quickly see key information and trends. We had some very big issues with onboarding new employees and customers due to our rapid growth. All of those pain points have gone away. I meet with our senior leadership on a regular basis and can now present real-time reports. We like the multiple independent service desk function and may deploy it to other departments like Customer Service and HR to get the same benefits that we’ve realized in IT.

Deploying Giva has been a monumental win for our IT organization. The ROI generated has been tremendous. Giva has given us operational transparency and allows our teams to better collaborate. The HIPAA compliant application is very user friendly which allowed us to quickly roll out the employee self-service portal to 900 people with limited training. The comprehensive library of free video tutorials allowed our folks to learn at their own pace and prepare for the transition. We shut down our old system on a Friday and went live with Giva on Monday without a glitch. One of the business results is that now we are earning a 4.8 rating (out of 5) on our customer satisfaction surveys from Giva. That has been a very big turnaround in the level of satisfaction and mostly attributable to our move to Giva.

#### Cons

It was very easy to get up and running on Giva and many other products were so more difficult. So, no "Cons" for GIva.

Giva is an extraordinary value since it’s affordable, highly customizable and easy to get started. Giva allowed us to “shine a light” on all of our workflows and identify areas where improvement was necessary. This saved us from losing two clients so the ROI has been outstanding in just a short amount of time. The Giva customer service team is great; always very helpful and thorough. Just like the whole app, the reports are intuitive and we can keep drilling down to gain deeper insights and root cause.

#### Pros

We love Giva. It helped us immediately find gaps in our workflow processes. This has had a profound impact on transparency and workload balance. The reports and dashboards uncovered some key internal processes impacting customer satisfaction that we suspected were awry, but had no hard data to support until using Giva. Giva helped open our eyes to these issues with objective data. We are now reengineering these processes and can then closely monitor the changes made and keep on iterating. In addition, we increased Agent productivity about 20% in just the first few months and we anticipate realizing an even a higher increase in productivity. The entire app is intuitive, easy to navigate and easy to get up and running on and use day-to-day. My team are not all very technical, but they quickly learned how to use Giva. It was simple for us to get started and customize on the fly and grow into Giva as our needs change.

#### Cons

No "cons"; it does all that we need it to do.

#### Pros

I like the fact that cust support is always available to assist if you have any questions (during setup). I love the ease of use and there is really very little training needed. The customer support is top notch in that within setting up a Critical ticket they respond quickly. I feel this product surpasses many others that don't even come close. I plan on using GIVA for a LONG time

#### Cons

None really to mention at this point and time. Well maybe one item but not a major concern of mine. It's the fact they don't have a customer support line. A support request has to initially be done by submitting a support ticket in the Giva system. However, for complex issues, after I submitted a ticket, I did get phone calls back and we engaged in a screen share to resolve my questions. That was very helpful.

We were literally up and running with the software after about 2 hours working with our sales representative. We tweaked a few things along the way and went live without any issues. Support is very responsive and they continue to update the product and add nice features regularly. As a manager who has implemented several service desks in the past, Giva was probably the fastest system I have taken from start to finish.

Giva also provides the most value by offering an asset management module included with the cost of their help desk software while other help desk providers charge you per asset.

#### Pros

What truly sets Giva apart from other solutions we've used is their exceptional responsiveness to enhancement requests. Unlike competing platforms that either charge premium prices for customization or place requests in never-ending backlogs, Giva actively collaborates with us to implement needed improvements. When we identified a reporting gap related to resolution versus closure timing, Giva quickly worked with us to develop a solution that met our exact requirements. Giva's agile development approach with new monthly product releases provides tremendous value compared to other vendors who might only deploy critical security updates monthly. This continuous improvement model ensures we consistently benefit from new features and enhancements without additional cost or lengthy implementation delays. Their function-rich interface contains all the capabilities we need.

#### Cons

The IT and other teams don't have any cons to mention now. If we bring issues to Giva they do address.

The user-friendly nature of Giva has been a significant advantage. New team members can quickly learn and master the system without extensive training. The customizable dashboards allow each user to tailor their view to their specific needs and preferences, enhancing individual productivity. Giva's impact on our overall productivity has been substantial. We estimate a 60-70% increase in productivity, saving approximately 20-30 hours per month that can now be dedicated to other critical tasks. This equates to nearly an extra week of productivity each month. The software's organizational features have been particularly helpful in prioritizing and managing tickets. Unlike email-based systems where requests can easily get lost, Giva provides a clear overview of all tickets, their severity, and status. This clarity has improved our response times and overall service delivery. Giva's robust reporting capabilities have also impressed us. We can now provide senior management with detailed reports on asset allocation and ticket status almost instantaneously, a process that previously required significant time and effort.

#### Pros

Over the past five years, Giva has become an indispensable asset for our organization, significantly enhancing our efficiency and productivity. As an IT Manager supporting two companies—a construction firm with 80 users and a property management company with 250-300 users—I've seen firsthand how Giva has streamlined our operations across multiple areas. One of the most impactful benefits we've experienced is in help desk management. Giva's intuitive interface allows us to effortlessly track, manage, and assign tickets to different agents across various departments such as IT, marketing, and accounting. This has enabled us to provide a high level of support for our users and keep tasks organized. The system's scalability has been crucial, seamlessly accommodating our growth from a small construction company to a much larger property management firm. Giva has revolutionized our asset management. Before implementing Giva, we had no systematic way of tracking our IT inventory. Now, every piece of equipment is tagged and entered into Giva before being assigned to an employee. This has given us unprecedented visibility into our assets, allowing us to quickly generate reports on equipment allocation, age, and specifications. When management requests information on a user's assigned equipment, we can provide accurate data 90% faster than before.

#### Cons

No negatives. We all love Giva and they keep adding new features every 3 weeks.

The Giva service management system impressed me from the start with its deep customization capability, user-friendly interface, and seamless ticket management capabilities. Opening, closing, and tracking tickets was a breeze, allowing our team to efficiently address customer inquiries and technical issues. Additionally, the system's notification system kept us on top of urgent tickets, ensuring prompt and proactive support.The ability to customize and organize the dashboard to suit our needs has been invaluable. I can arrange the information according to my preference, prioritize tasks, and track their status without any confusion. It's a level of organization we never thought was possible and unique to Giva as we’ve used many other systems.Giva's private note feature allows us to communicate internally without disclosing sensitive information to the customers. This eliminates any confusion and ensures that the necessary details are at hand, resulting in faster resolution times.Another key feature that stands out is the ability to generate detailed reports. The advanced reporting and analytics feature in Giva has also proven to be critical to our turnaround.

The Giva support team provided hands-on assistance and guided us through the setup. They were responsive, patient, and attentive to our specific needs, ensuring a very smooth transition from our previous system. Importing existing data and configuring the system was simple, and they even suggested features I hadn't considered, making our lives easier right from the start.The most significant improvement and result we noticed was the reduction in response time and ticket resolution. Before Giva, we relied on emails and manual ticket sorting, leading to delays and confusion. With Giva's centralized dashboard, all tickets are displayed neatly, and I can easily see my assigned tasks, new tickets, and recent activity in one place. This alone increased our team’s productivity substantially!The system's automation also allows us to set up macros and automatic ticket closure, saving us time and effort on repetitive tasks.

#### Cons

### Giva Outshines ServiceNow with Intuitiveness and Versatility

As the head of an IT Service Desk for an organization dealing with behavioral health records, I have a lot on my plate. We support an expansive network of 800 employees and 1,200 contractors. My background largely involves programming, so this managerial role is quite new to me. I am grateful to use Giva, a cloud-based IT Service Desk application that effortlessly simplifies my work.Giva's HIPAA compliance, intuitive user interface, and easy administration capabilities make it an integral part of our operations. Although I wasn't involved in the initial decision to choose Giva, I cannot overstate my satisfaction with this robust tool after using it for only 4 months. The user-friendly nature of Giva leaves me nothing short of being very impressed. The easy-to-follow ticket history and comment section is just one example of its stellar interface.Giva's reports are another highlight, providing an invaluable tool for staff management. They help me distribute workload, monitor open tickets, and ensure timely closure of tasks. I also use these reports for performance evaluations. Giva's feature of saving multiple versions of preconfigured reports is a lifesaver, and the option to automatically schedule and email PDFs of these reports is the cherry on top.I would wholeheartedly recommend Giva to my industry colleagues. It's made my job easier, and I'm sure it can do the same for others.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

In comparison to other ticketing systems I've used in the past, like ServiceNow or some homegrown applications, Giva shines through with its intuitive features. ServiceNow, though well-known, always seemed a bit convoluted to me. Whether it was the dashboard or the ticketing system, I often found myself struggling to navigate the platform. With Giva, however, this problem is entirely non-existent.With Giva, identifying my assigned tickets is a breeze, and I'm promptly notified via email whenever there are new comments. This is a stark contrast to ServiceNow, where I had to manually hunt for my tickets. Giva's beautiful, customizable dashboard, with a library of selectable widgets, gives me all the information I need at a glance.What's more, my introduction to Giva required zero training. The system was so intuitive, I found myself quickly assigning tickets, changing statuses, and adding notes both public and private. Other systems often bury essential fields in hard-to-find places, but Giva conveniently places them on the right, eliminating excessive scrolling. And if I ever hit a snag, Giva's library of video tutorials is always at my disposal. The Giva asset management module has been a boon in tracking both technical and non-technical assets, such as ergonomic desks. We're even considering creating a separate service desk for our facilities department to leverage Giva's capabilities further.

#### Cons

I cannot say there are any features missing. There are lots of functions that I've not had time to try yet. Looking ahead, I'm excited to explore more of Giva's features like the change management app and the self-help portal.
