It works well for a small business support desk

The UI is intuitive and easy to use, especially if you're new to helpdesk software. It's easy to use and efficient, making it ideal for a company with a small support staff. It's simple to use; I was able to set up my agents and ticket alerts and begin receiving tickets in a matter of minutes.

Pros

For internal clients, we rely only on Spiceworks as our ticket-based support system. If a user experiences a problem that can be resolved by IT, they need only visit the site and, in a matter of seconds, create a ticket that includes screenshots and other information that will aid us in fixing the problem as soon as possible.

Cons

My only gripe is that it is not simple to view all tickets in one place, regardless of their status, using the "my tickets" feature.

Other solutions are better

I started using it when I first joined my current company as this was what they had been using at the time. I hated it so much I proposed other solutions that I had used in the past. We ended up going to Freshdesk and now the rest of the team understands why I wanted us to move.

Pros

It did the very basics and it was free and relatively easy to use.

Cons

It was very clunky, glitched frequently. The UI was extremely ugly.

Steve Rob Music - Spiceworks Cloud Help Desk Review

Overall, Spiceworks has allowed us to customize the branding within the dashboard, which has made the tool more user-friendly for both our employees and IT department. We also appreciate that Spiceworks includes an inventory system and a built-in knowledge base, where employees can easily find solutions or troubleshooting steps for common issues like network errors or password problems.

Pros

Since transitioning from Zendesk last year, we've been using the Spiceworks Help Desk, and it's been a great asset in helping us accomplish tasks more efficiently. The simple dashboard layout makes it much easier for our IT department to manage tickets. Plus, assigning or creating tickets is as easy as clicking on one, streamlining the entire process.

Cons

With Zendesk, we had the ability to customize our ticket number sequence, starting at 60000 instead of the typical #1 or #2. This made it easier for both our employees and IT department to track and manage tickets efficiently. Unfortunately, we found that Spiceworks doesn't offer the same flexibility.

This is the one solution to start with Servicedesk solutions

This is a great solution, it was our first service desk platform that give us excellent results.

Pros

Spiceworks is a high valuable solution with multiple levels, very easy to deploy, it could be setup as a level entry service desk solution but includes great features that you have on hand starting even with the free version.

Cons

As Spiceworks have several modules some of them remains with an effective use and could be great to have a configuration menu that disable that tabs not configured on the setup
