What do you like best about IFS assyst?

The tool is easy to operate and maintain with drop and drag service design/publish/maintain (no need for additional programming). The Arabic language as an option is great, and assyst covers all processes. All processes are ITIL certified. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFS assyst?

No process is 'out of the box'. The UI needs more work and although the reporting is good, and has got better, it's not a specific reporting tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IFS assyst solving and how is that benefiting you?

The self-service offers multiple ways to create a ticket and reduces call backs. We have seen an increase in transparency across operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IFS assyst?

There is very little I like about this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFS assyst?

It has an outdated interface, that will crash if you click in the wrong areas.

The hosted provider had no interest in fixing this.

High availability was really two hosted servers, with 50% of users on each. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering IFS assyst:

It may be a cheaper product, but it will cost you in the longer term - both in money and meaningul data. Users will find workarounds to get data in, even if the data is wrong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IFS assyst solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's allowed us to track time against jobs. However retrieving meaningful reports is difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFS assyst?

What's not to dislike? Features that were a requirement for us to buy a new ticketing system were available when the product was implemented are broken for the last several updates. Reporting is a mess. The DB schema is atrocious. And the product crawls at a snail's pace on a good day.

If you like clearing cache and cookies on your browser to get the webapp to even load, this too was built for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike how often you have to contact Assyst to have them help you with customization. I wish there was more you could do yourself on the back end as an administrator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some hiccups but once this is up and running it is absolutely one of the best software. We rarely had any technical problems with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We solved help desk tickets, routing of tickets, incident management issues, escalation issues, project management integration, change management integration and everything is all in ONE program instead of several. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IFS assyst?

I like how the dashboard is easily customizable and creating reports to keep reference on the dashboard is nice as well. I also like the FAQ / Knowledge Bank are for users to browse. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFS assyst?

While I am adding a comment it will time out very quickly. So I find myself composing in MS Word and then pasting it in there. Or I will copy what I have typed before I click submit, just in case it does time out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering IFS assyst:

I believe this product is very customizable for an organization. When our company first rolled it out there were a few fields we did not need and after some months of use and an update we were able to get those unnecessary fields removed to fit our company's needs. I truly appreciated this as a Tier 2 & 3 case manager as well as an individual user for submitting tickets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IFS assyst?

Current project involves moving from our ITSM Service Desk Express tool, into Axios Assyst. We have found so far that the product is so much more rubust and ITIL geared that it will fit our organization much more completely. We are setting up virtual teams in the system which will make sharing work and getting things done for our client much easier! The event monitor is amazing as well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFS assyst?

We are having some challenges with Smart mail and action processor. We are now working with an external ESB to get the functionality that we need for incoming ‘events’. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering IFS assyst:

This should fit just about anyone. The application is used in small and large organizations and seems to be very versatile. I also recommend working with a partner when trying to implement. They will help you get this implemented quicker and will save re-work. We are now working with Sierra Systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IFS assyst solving and how is that benefiting you?

This software will help our organizations function with one set of processes. We are currently 10 different parts transforming into 2. Assyst will be our ‘backbone’ enabling us to make this transformation much less painful for the IT staff as well as the customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
