What do you like best about Hornbill Service Manager?

I like that we are able to manipulate and build the system ourselves without intervention from IT specialists. It is an easy to use, easy to build system. I also like that I can make the system work for me, using nodes and choices that enable me to fully customise the platform our organisation uses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hornbill Service Manager?

I dislike the reporting functionality at presents - the widgets, dashboards, and related tools are confusing unless you understand the ITSM coding behind it. This is something that could be simplified, or perhaps reviewed completely to make this more non-IT user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have a complete self service portal for 5 areas of our business at present, using authorisations, taskings, self logging and chasing, as well as a wealth of knowledge in knowledge banks and FAQs.

What do you like best about Hornbill Service Manager?

Hornbill Service Manager is a very customisable cloud based product that has enabled us to implement cross-working servicedesk teams in all of our regions (APAC, Europe, Middle East and North America). The support we receive from Hornbill is excellent and includes quarterly reviews, annual conferences and a forum which makes it easy to request new functionality and enhancements which are often implemented quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hornbill Service Manager?

There is some functionality we used to have within SupportWorks (Horbnill's previous servicedesk tool) which is only available in Hornbill's premium product, namely the ability to email scheduled reports to our external customers. I would also like to see more regular updates to our external customer portal (look and feel and new functionality) as we are very impressed with the updates we get to the staff facing product, but our customers do not see this and may have a different perception of Hornbill because of this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hornbill Service Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have been able to implement the same support system across all of our regions which has helped us to share resources for product support and also allows us to take advantage of cross-timezone support to our customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hornbill Service Manager?

Hornbill covers all aspects of a ServiceDesk using ITIL as its foundation, Highly customisable with intuitive business process work flows. If you can think it it can probably be customised to suit your ServiceDesk needs. Hornbill has a great support mechanism with bi monthly business improvement calls with a consultant to maximise the functionality of the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hornbill Service Manager?

I find the mobile application poor but whilst I'm writing this they are delivering a new platform for it, The previews look much better. Some of the additional functionality bundled with the product such as asset management isn't that great and we use a product designed specifically for that purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hornbill Service Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?

Whilst Hornbill deals with the everyday Servicedesk requirements , We have customised a fluid onboarding & offboarding of new staff this has reduced the amount of individual manual task considerably and removed human error also. We depend on the workflows heavily to point Incidents/Service request to the correct technology owner thus improving end user fix times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hornbill Service Manager?

I love how simple Hornbill is to navigate. I don't think we utilize it to its full potential but being a user of multiple parts of Hornbill I like how you can link things for auditability. Logging tickets is efficent via customer facing or IT analyst. Having everything in one place is ideal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hornbill Service Manager?

sometimes BPMs 'break' which can be frustrating Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
