What do you like best about ConnectWise PSA?

Of all the CRM tools that I have used throughout my career, the one I liked the most is ConnectWise Manage, this is due to the fact that it is more complete than the rest, that is, it allows you to review the received ticket tray, at the same time it allows you to schedule the tickets for days and hours to know when to work them thanks to your view in the form of a calendar and ter allows you to generate metrics about the work that the analysts are carrying out to whom you assign the tickets for resolution, the truth is an excellent, complete and powerful tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ConnectWise PSA?

What I do not like is that ConnectWise Managa is very confusing and difficult to use at the beginning, this because it integrates TOO many functions, which tends to confuse new users, so much so that without doing a course on the tool it is almost impossible from my point of view that a user learn to use this tool, what is certain is that once users become familiar with Connectwise Manage, they do not change it for anything and that is the most effective application when managing and attend technical support tickets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ConnectWise PSA:

My recommendation is that if you want to provide a quality support service to your customers, you must implement the connect wise tools suite Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ConnectWise PSA solving and how is that benefiting you?

Thanks to connectwise manage we have been able to comply with the SLAs established in the agreements with our clients and provide quality technical assistance, our clients are happy to have a tool like connectwise when reporting failures and therefore we feel happy too , also its integration with connectwise control and connectwise automate has played an important role in the improvement of our support service Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ConnectWise PSA?

What I like most about ConnectWise Manage is that it allows me to manage and plan in a more efficient and orderly manner the management and assignment of technical support tickets that we receive daily from our users, as well as an intuitive and friendly interface, and its new vision in the form of an almanac which allows scheduling the tasks so as to take better control and a greater order at the moment of its execution Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ConnectWise PSA?

ConnectWise is an application that has a large number of integrated functions, so much so that it even allows you to store relevant information about your clients and users, something that in my opinion plays against you, since having so many functions becomes very complicated. use by users, or at least this is the beginning, in fact to be able to familiarize with the tool and start interacting in a good way, it is necessary to carry out online courses that offer on your page, which last a month and sometimes do not has so much time for study, should be simplified to only attention and tickets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ConnectWise PSA:

Ask your companies for the implementation of this tool and you will see how effective the ticket attention process becomes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ConnectWise PSA solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows to create, receive, manage and document technical support tickets received by users or clients, and also provides metrics on analysts or specialists who attend these tickets, this is beneficial since it is very useful when measuring the management of the same ones or to realize a labor evaluation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ConnectWise PSA?

What I like most about ConnectWise Manage is that it offers me a clearer vision about the amount of support tickets received in the tray, in turn, with its novel view in the form of a calendar, it offers a better vision on how to organize and attack the tickets depending on the priority they have, all this translates into quality work in accordance with SLA previously established with our customers, the truth is excellent this tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ConnectWise PSA?

The truth is that we must recognize that the tool contains too many integrated functions which makes it somewhat complex and difficult to use for its users at first, in fact in my case it took me 3 weeks to get familiar and learn the basics of the tool and because I had to take a course to learn how to use it, otherwise those 3 weeks could easily be about 6 months, but after you familiarize, everything becomes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ConnectWise PSA:

I recommend to all people who work attending support tickets, is the most effective way to organize your time of action before each request Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ConnectWise PSA solving and how is that benefiting you?

If we go to what are corporate solutions, many are offered by connectwise manage, starting with the fact that in this tool all support tickets are received by our clients, then they are scheduled in the calendar and subsequently are attacked to give solution to these, additionally connectwise allows you to store key information about your customers, which can be useful when discussing or renewing service contracts, connectwise manage is a fairly complete tool, I really recommend it to all those companies that can implement Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about ConnectWise PSA?

This software will take years to master - there are ways to handle most things except payments built into the Connectwise solutions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ConnectWise PSA?

There is no inbuilt payment integration with the Connectwise Manage system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ConnectWise PSA:

Make a detailed list of business requirements. Make sure Connectwise Manage has them built-in - without extra modules being required either from external companies, or for extra monthly costs.

You should be able to import your clients, their contacts and the products and services which you use on a regular basis from CSV, but it's important to bend your data to the standardized import files provided by Connectwise, it doesn't seem possible to bend connectwise to your data.

When it comes to your helpdesk and email / calendar syncing, the need for an additional O365 licensed user purely for the use of connectwise as an admin user seems to be a horrible oversight on their part, at least it was never sufficiently explained why we had to have another admin user just for the sync to work properly. This added $12 per month to the cost of operating connectwise when syncing to office 365.

We would like to see tighter outlook integration made easier. There is some kind of outlook plugin, but we have not implemented that yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ConnectWise PSA solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a tool to manage our CRM, Helpdesk and customer tracking we find Connectwise has most of what we need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ConnectWise PSA?

GUI is clear and understandable. The bulk management tools are good, built in time recording works well. You can move modules around to customize your own view which is very helpful. Easy to create your own ticket reviews. Has improved company communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ConnectWise PSA?

It can be a little slow at times, especially deleting tickets which should be a simple job, merging tickets shows you tickets from all companies not just other tickets from the same company which makes it a more difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ConnectWise PSA:

Pay someone to implement it for you, its a complicated beast! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ConnectWise PSA solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have moved the entire company onto Connectwise from disparate systems so now communication and work across the different departments is far far easier. Workflows are now crucial to how leads are turned to sales which are turned to projects etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ConnectWise PSA?

ConnectWise is great at what they do. They have an array of products that integrate with each other very well. Manage is an easy to use ticket solution. It also does a good job for "configurations". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ConnectWise PSA?

There are a couple of things Manage does not do well. The first is projects, projects have too many steps and are not easy to view details and progress without diving into the issue. Also, configurations do not encrypt or restrict access to the password field. Because of that, we have to use a different solution for managing our client's passwords. Manage is also very pricy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ConnectWise PSA:

Manage is best if you pair it with other software made by ConnectWise, such as Sell, Automate, and Control. When you use all of them, you have the most functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ConnectWise PSA solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use it to track tickets and projects. We don't use it for configurations, because of the password issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The general focus on automation and providing end to end functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ConnectWise PSA?

Support is hit or miss, as is their consulting group. They have some incredibly talented people on staff, but also have some people who just don't seem to care. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ConnectWise PSA solving and how is that benefiting you?

Centralizing customer information, tracking agreements in the managed services space, ticketing, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
