What do you like best about Jitbit Helpdesk?

We trialed several different Help Desk / Ticketing solutions from various vendors and in different price ranges (including free). We ended up falling in love with Jitbit thanks to its quickness to run, ease to install, backup, migrate, and update and fantastic support staff. I think that my favorite thing may have to be how responsive the vendor support is; we've had several suggestions become actual features over the years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jitbit Helpdesk?

I don't love the roles system. There are "technicians", "administrators", and "users". The technicians can be per-category, but then they are still seemingly more than just users on the categories for which they are not technicians. In addition, there doesn't seem to be a good way to allow a user to have full read access to all tickets in a category or section without giving them technician access as well.

Recommendations to others considering Jitbit Helpdesk:

Go for it! I think it's definitely worth it to do the free trial. As a whole, we typically stay away from cloud products and prefer to go with on premises solutions, so that's what we've done with Jitbit as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jitbit Helpdesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

Initially, we were only looking for a ticketing system for our internal technology help desk. We ended up quickly adding our Facilities team and later our public services team for external patrons to receive help and set up special collections and recommendations.

What do you like best about Jitbit Helpdesk?

The simple UI with even simpler user ticket submission helps with adoption. The SQL Server back-end allows for easy to create integrations to third party software. We buy the high-end with source so we can modify a few pages to work as we want them to. The workflows are easy to use and the KB system works wonders when tied to categories.

Some of the email filtering could be better as technicians sometimes only work with one "Company" or building. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jitbit Helpdesk?

Compared to our old helpdesk software it has been like moving out of the dark ages. We are able to setup our ticketing where tickets are created and assigned via automation. It has made it so simple for users to just to send a email to our main helpdesk email and the automation takes care of the rest Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jitbit Helpdesk?

Unlike some other helpdesk solutions there is not a dashboard view available to easily view ticket counts and other important information. We would like to be able to display this information on a display board we have in the office. There is a API available to get this information but I would have liked a built in solution.

What problems is Jitbit Helpdesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

Easy ticket creation and login via SSO for users has allowed us to support our users quicker and easier then ever before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jitbit Helpdesk?

The reporting tool is great, you can drill down to your ticketing system by date, assigned agent, ticket status and more. You can also analyze how your support guys/gals are performing from several metrics available within the reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jitbit Helpdesk?

The product is highly customizable which is great but it can also be a bit bland on the UI/UX side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jitbit Helpdesk:

Definitely recommended. However, consider this strictly as a helpdesk tool. Jitbit doesn't have bells and whistles like its larger competition (think landesk) that allows software deployment, remote desktop etc. It serves us well in the capacity of organizing helpdesk tickets. We know we have live chat capability but we decided not to use it in our setting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jitbit Helpdesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are internally using Jitbit to create and manage helpdesk tickets. Our call volume has drop significantly and implementation was a breeze. Good support, straight forward product and worth every penny. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jitbit Helpdesk?

We trialed a few diverse Help Desk/Ticketing arrangements from different sellers and in various value ranges (counting free). We wound up experiencing passionate feelings for Jitbit because of its speed to run, straightforwardness to introduce, reinforcement, relocate, and refresh and awesome care staff. I believe that my most loved thing may must be the way responsive the merchant support is; we've had a few recommendations turned out to be real highlights throughout the years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jitbit Helpdesk?

I don't love the jobs framework. There are "experts", "directors", and "clients". The specialists can be per-classification, however then they are still apparently something other than clients on the classes for which they are not experts. Likewise, there doesn't appear to be a decent method to enable a client to have full perused access to all tickets in a classification or area without giving them specialist access too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jitbit Helpdesk:

The Jitbit helpdesk arrangement is an extraordinary arrangement whether you have 1 or numerous specialists dealing with various classifications of issues. Too we have executed extra depts. to use the framework as the ticketing and the email warnings are incredible resources for this instrument. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jitbit Helpdesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

At first, we were searching for a ticketing framework for our interior innovation help work area. We wound up rapidly including our Facilities group and later our open administrations group for outer supporters to get help and set up uncommon accumulations and suggestions.

What do you like best about Jitbit Helpdesk?

We trialed a few distinctive Help Desk/Ticketing arrangements from different sellers and in various value ranges (counting free). We wound up beginning to look all starry eyed at Jitbit because of its briskness to run, straightforwardness to introduce, reinforcement, relocate, and refresh and awesome care staff. I feel that my most loved thing may must be the manner by which responsive the seller support is; we've had a few recommendations turned out to be real highlights throughout the years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jitbit Helpdesk?

I don't love the jobs framework. There are "experts", "heads", and "clients". The specialists can be per-class, however then they are still apparently something beyond clients on the classifications for which they are not professionals. Likewise, there doesn't appear to be a decent method to enable a client to have full perused access to all tickets in a classification or segment without giving them professional access too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jitbit Helpdesk:

Pull out all the stops! I believe it's very justified, despite all the trouble to do the free preliminary. In general, we regularly avoid cloud items and like to run with on premises arrangements, so's what we've finished with Jitbit also. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
