### A great service management tool for your business

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Trang H.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Architecture & Planning
- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for free trial
- Reviewed: January 2019
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The Web help desk can be used by technicians and clients. The clients use it to submit a ticket and the technicians will provide an answer or solution to the clients. I think this tool is good for use in the company. The staff members can use it to report about their IT problems or request for assets that they need for their job.

#### Cons

It's a paid tool so you need to pay for it.

### Easy To Setup and Train End Users to Use

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Verified Reviewer
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years
- Reviewed: March 2018
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Has tons of features and functionality AND it is easy to setup and utilize all of them. From start to full web help desk completion, it took roughly two weeks (not day to day) and it was fully setup and being used by all company staff to submit tickets, approve tickets, and for tech staff to reply and resolve tickets.

#### Cons

Depending on how many techs you want to utilize the Web Help Desk it can become pricey. We only had 5-7 techs at any given time so the cost was not that bad.

### Our experience with WHD has been ok to underwhelming

- Overall rating: 3/5

- Company size: 501-1000 employees
- Product usage: Used other for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2017
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

It allows us to measure how busy our Help Desk group is, we can identify patterns more easily now helping us to resolve problem areas more quickly.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Value for money: 2/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 2/5

#### Pros

It allows us to get statistics on our helpdesk calls. Our data center is able to create tickets automatically. It is a repository for all help calls that we did not have before so management can get an overall picture. We like that we can build custom reports and dashboards. Creating forms that can ask a user for data is helpful but we have not implemented any yet because it is cumbersome.

#### Cons

The UI for the software is stuck in the 90s, very table oriented, Comments in the tickets have a lot of wasted space, we have to scroll constantly to see history. The table widths are not relative or resizable. Images are stored and provided to the user as links with generic names, half the time the link is a signature logo. Our users use screen shots in almost all of our tickets. Not being able to see the images without clicking on a link is painful. Also, we can not use the customizable forms because a user has to save their image to their local hard drive and then upload to the form. Many users don't have a clue how to do this so we have to use email. Because we have to use emails we get duplicate tickets because the software does not recognize a reply. Some of this is the lack of training for our users but if the UI was better we would send them directly to the website. We have compiled a list of questions and will be contacting SW to see if we are missing something in our configurations or if it is a lack of training. If we are not able to resolve most of these issues we will be looking for a different solution.

#### Vendor response

We're sorry to hear of these difficulties you are having, but we are encouraged you plan to reach out to seek a resolution. We have a lot really talented people on our team that are willing and ready to help whenever you choose to tap us as a resource. As for you comments regarding providing instruction to your customers for common tasks involved in troubleshooting their issues, we have some advice. We suggest you create an FAQ to provide a set list of instructions to help with image capture and transfer to your help desk team. Alternatively, a solution like Dameware Remote Support from SolarWinds could lend a hand in the troubleshooting process, enabling your team to access an end-user's workstation and snap screenshots instead. The bonus is that it integrates with Web Help Desk. We hope this guidance is helpful. Looking forward to your outreach to address your other concerns.

Able to look up ticket type, or ticket content for repeat issues. Track issues by who submits them easily by searching. Setup custom requirements for ticket submission. Easily integrate it with Solarwinds to create tickets when there are issues on network. It can also be connected to Exchange to send out email notifications.

#### Cons

It appears that it cannot send email notifications to Distro lists. Setting up tech alerts can be quite complicated to get everything configured the way you want it to.

Easy to deploy on a vm. Old clunky software with no real promise of a future since Solarwinds bought them. Was a good product at one time, but look for someone else at this point.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 4/5

#### Pros

Great Mac integrations. Being able to RDP into a client's computer from the helpdesk is awesome. Inventory and tickets in the same interface is also nice. Wish more low cost helpdesks would have these features in them.

#### Cons

There are long standing bugs in the software. Solarwinds has been less than helpful in fixing them. They axed the VM template because they didn't want to rework it to be secure. The interface is dated and their "redesign" was a fresh coat of paint over a mess of a program.

It has been OK, but nothing amazing. I have seen better help desk features built-in to other software solutions, CRM's, ERP's, etc.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 2/5
- Customer support: 3/5

#### Pros

I like that it all tickets can be automatically routed, and folks receive email notifications. You can place comments right in the ticket and mention others to notify them of action needed.

#### Cons

The template forms that you can create for different types of tickets are boring and limited. Web technology has come a long way and it seems like it would be simple to allow us to create responsive forms to better guide users and force them to provide detailed information in certain form fields.

Our prior system was severely constrained. It did not always function properly. Web Help Desk outperforms the prior system in every way, including alerts/notifications, service level agreement compliance, and comprehensive emails to techs. We enjoy the pop-up notifications that are depending on the report type selected by consumers.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Excellent as a helpdesk ticketing system, that's the reason we acquired it, but it does so much more! It is a very handy tool for inventories, purchase orders, and other stuff. It clearly has more features than we imagined, and as we've utilized the product, we've been gradually implementing more and more of these. I enjoy the opportunity to create custom fields; with many products, you are limited to how things are configured out of the box; this is not one of those products.

#### Cons

I feel that the whole configuration procedure is a little difficult and that it would be beneficial if it could be simplified.

### I operate as an administrator of the system as well as running a help desk team out of the system.

It does what it says on the box - helps us track issues and tickets.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 2/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 3/5
- Functionality: 2/5

#### Pros

The pricing system is definitely a bonus when compared to other software solutions. You get a lot of bang for your buck. Out of the box it works fairly well, but we have a lot of specialized use cases that took more to implement. The administration features are fairly simplistic - could be good or bad depending on how you look at it, but as someone with minimal code/administration experience it's easy to jump right in and get what you need done. Bulk features is nice. Client and ticket history were a must for us as we have our HR team working out of this system in tandem with other teams.

#### Cons

1. Lack of in depth customization. This extends to UI, ticket options, even the action rules are pretty railroaded in terms of what you can do. 2. Built in reporting isn't great. It also taxes the system from the user/technician side if you are running a large report (this is bad.) We ended up just throwing the SQL tables into Tableau to get any sort of granular information. 3. Systems other than the ticketing feature aren't fleshed out. Assets and FAQs both stink, even when compared to ticketing system.

#### Pros

SolarWinds is great for being a helpdesk ticketing system which is what we purchased it for, however, it does much more than that! It is a very useful tool for inventory, as well as purchase orders, and other items. It definitely has more features than we expected and we've been slowly incorporating more and more of these as we've used the product. I like the ability to add custom fields, a lot of products you are stuck with how they are configured out of the box, SolarWinds is definitely not that product.

#### Cons

The only real downside to SolarWinds has been the fact that some of the more advanced things such as Single Sign On (SSO) / ADFS were not very user friendly to configure, but we have successfully done it, and it does work quite well. The only other issue we have had is some off / on issues where if we reboot the server we have it hosted on, it will go back to being a trial license, but a simple call to Customer Support and the issue is resolved.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Self Service and Asset Management made easy and even for those users who are new to computers. Frequently Asked Questions area is more Powerful and can be further customized.

#### Cons

Change Management needs improvement and separate Ticket Prefix shall be supported. For example, Change Management requests may start using RFC0001, Incidents may start INC0001 and Normal Support Tickets may start from SR00001 etc.. There should be provision to display .jpg or .gif files in the browser instead of attachments.

#### Vendor response

Glad you've found our ITSM capabilities to be to your liking. Your other suggestion regarding Ticket prefixes is most interesting. Have you published this as a feature request on our online community - THWACK?

#### Pros

Web Help Desk (WHD) has two main features that I love. You can create help desk tickets and you can track assets. WHD ticket system has a dashboard that you can create many different widgets on to see beautiful and detailed graphics. It also also has tabs to see your tickets, your group tickets, flagged tickets, and a search tab to see all tickets. WHD assets system allows you to input your devices or anything that used like to allow users to borrow. Then users can request usage of the devices. WHD has a very clean user interface. It is very easy to navigate and it is mobile friendly.

Basic ticketing works fine. Easy to use and solid once it's been properly setup. Like any product, setting up correctly from the start is needed.

#### Cons

Vendor (Solarwinds) has not done any real updates or feature improvements since they purchased the product about 5 years ago. It is obvious they don't take this product serious.

#### Vendor response

Customizing ability and ease of use for clients. Easy to track assets and update inventory. Reporting is very easy.

#### Cons

Have to go into settings every time I need to add request types or new assets. I want to make additions right from the ticket screen or asset screen. Also I want the help desk calendar to sync directly onto my outlook calendar. Asset audit sucks. Want to know detailed info about the computers like software, o/S, memory, hard drive and it's a pain or doesn't pull the info most of the time.

Ease of use for clients.

#### Cons

Reporting is no where near where it needs to be and/or it needs to be easier to use. The ability to pull custom reports would be nice or at least some instructions on how to create custom report. Constantly goes down even when our network is up and need to be rebooted at least once every couple of days. No end user chat feature or just any additional bells and whistles that other products offer. The Dashboard is almost useless, again, unless I just don't understand how you use it.

#### Vendor response

We're sorry to hear that your experience with Web Help Desk has been less that satisfactory. Regarding your question about customer reports, have you checked out the SolarWinds Success Center? Here's a link that provides direct access to a tutorial on this subject: http://bit.ly/2qaqiSR. Aside from this, your performance issues are troubling. We strongly urge you to submit a support ticket to further troubleshoot this issue.
