TOPdesk is a good placeholder for tracking and maintaining customer updates & items in process

We use TOPdesk to maintain steps in our testing processes and to document those steps with the customer from beginning to close of the project.
My corporation wants to combine our incidents, which currently look like tabs on the screen, with more expansive features including reports so is moving from TOPdesk to Salesforce, which I have used in the past and is very different in its interface.
Pros
It's a simple digital place to create "incidents" for each product test and maintain customer records per incident which can either be available to or hidden from the customer.
Cons
TOPdesk is limited in what kind of documentation it can hold. We cannot include and manipulate all the files we need to work with. It's a placeholder for items and info., not a space for working on them.
Response from TOPdesk
Hi Lauri, thank you for your review! We really appreciate it.
The use case you are describing isn't our typical ITSM/ESM case we cater to so there might be a gap between what we offer and your needs. Moving forward to a better fit is the logical step. We hope this step towards Salesforce helps you out. Best of luck!
For ITSM/ESM support we're very happy to support you in any future needs. Thanks again.

All in all this is a sound product that gets the job done. As it is very configurable we have over the years automated al lot of services via the self-service portal.
Pros
The self-service portal is very configurable. We have setup a nice look self-service portal that gets improved over time. Having used TD for many years, we have seen it grown over the years and like it.
The SSO option is available and as many people use it daily it is almost a must to use it. Setup of it was relatively easy.
Cons
We have a useability issue with Firefox and the operator console where an "X" character is not recognized. This will be solved by an update, but in the meantime it is annoying.
I don't like the default search option of "Fuzzy". I always use the quotes around a search term to disable that. I would like the default be changed or at least configurable.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We hope to have you with us for many more years to come!

Although TOPdesk offers everything you would expect from an ITSM tool, and has proven itself over the years, i feel like it has been surpassed by their competitors, which offer a more modern experience for both users and administrators.
Pros
TOPdesk has been one of the most used tools of its kind for quite some time, and offers all functionality that you would expect.
Cons
The look and feel of TOPdesk are not as up to date as their more modern competitors.
Response from TOPdesk
Hey Mark,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! We're glad to hear that you appreciate the functionality of TOPdesk. Your feedback about the look and feel of our platform is noted. We're always aiming for improvement and a more modern experience is definitely on our radar.
We understand that competition is fierce and we're committed to keep evolving to meet and exceed expectations. Your feedback is incredibly valuable in this process.

Pros
Easy and intuitive to use, easy to model for your needs, with many modules available. Can be used across the business Function: IT, HR, Admin, Soft FM, Hard FM and with excellent asset management, room bookings and reception services. The Help Line staff go out of their way to support. Mobilisations or start up Help Desks are also supported with excellent consultants that lead a team through the setup up and training. The Workaid module allows two way communication directly with suppliers and sub contractors whether they have TopDesk or not. Regular seminars/conferences held to address innovation and to allow networking across different business sectors to allow best practice to promulgate.

Gets the job done, but lacks a lot of common features that other ticketing systems have out of the box.
Pros
TopDesk is actively developing its product which is awesome! It is a good ticket system that gets the job done. I have had very little down time.
Cons
They lack a lot of features and functionalities that I grew used to with our old ticketing system. Mass manipulation of tickets is lacking. you can only mark tickets as completed or closed in their system, you cannot transfer to a operator/operator group on mass, or mass categorize.
They only recently introduced a chat integration but you have to contract the chat service through a 3rd party so another cost.
Response from TOPdesk

Managing tasks, getting things done and trusting your lists are a big part of why I like this. It offers so many functionalities and is still easy to learn. I also love that it's SaaS.
Cons
Although it's easy to learn, it's hard to master. We are missing some integrations, but we have yet to find a better software than this.

Very bad experience from day one when it had to be integrated and subsequent bad experience with the support. Have given up contacting them.
Pros
That we should not have a server standing with ourselves
Cons
Don't feel there is any support whatsoever for the product. You have to constantly update your browser or close and open your browser as it times out all the time. It is difficult to set up the system the way you would like it to. Not easy to find your way around the system.

Pros
Many modules which means that Topdesk can be widely used in the company
Cons
in asset management, for example, there are still some points that could be improved, but Topdesk is busy with this, I'll keep an eye on the roadmap.
API connection with other systems is not yet possible for all modules.

I was looking for a Helpdesk tool for my small, but growing company, branching across multi-sites and countries and found a SaaS solution that I quickly realised will allow me to grow the system / teams and complexity as I need it to.
You can start with a really simple set-up but its complexity can grow to fit any company. This allows me to make changes as we grow without having to upgrade to other systems.
TOPdesk is modular which means you can start with some of the modules and then add them as your needs grow. It’s just a cost option and you’re ready to go.
When you purchase a product you want to be able to configure the system as your needs change and grow, with the training team on site to help your initial setup you go through some in-depth training allowing you to become the master of your system, with all the skills needed to make the changes yourself to the way you want it after the training team have left, no additional costs every time you need a change made.
TOPdesk support is second to none with timely solutions to your problems with most problems being resolved with first time fixes while on the phone.
Would I recommend TOPdesk to other companies? Yes without a doubt and if I was to move to another company who needed a helpdesk system the first team to call would be the TOPdesk team.
Pros
Topdesk can be as simple or as complex as you want / need it to be. It's ideal for small companies to large organisations, it will take it all in it's stride.
Cons
I still find the idea of having to use third party software for complex reports. The reporting side is not its strong point.

Wow, thank you Martin for your top marks. We appreciate the feedback and compliments!

Let the great team of TOPdesk help make your life easier
Reviewed on 7/5/2019
Pros
It's very easy to tweak the software to make it work in line with your current processes. It helps shape them so everyone can easily follow guidance and procedures.
We currently use Incident, Problem, Change and Operations Management successfully and are very excited about continuing to improve our processes with such a knowledgeable partner at our side. Our audit rating and maturity levels continue to get better and better as a consequence as well.
Cons
Of course there are times that we'd like to do something that the software isn't quite capable of doing yet, but the labs team is constantly looking at new trends and often there is already something in development. If that is not the case the consultants are great in helping us develop workarounds.

TOPdesk are an excellent company to work with, very responsive and helpful. You are made to feel like part of the wider team. We feel we get excellent value for money with this product.
Pros
It's so easy to customise and configure. Using this product we have developed a self-service portal showcasing multiple services from various departments, not just IT services. TOPdesk has made it possible to streamline our service provision, and automate some of the call management. Our self-service portal is regularly achieving over 75% entry.
Cons
It's difficult to find something I don't like but maybe I would like to have more text formatting tools.

Pros
TOPdesk provides a simple tool for Service Management provided your organisation has good processes in place ... or even some processes!!
For Operators it is easy to use and the KB is excellent. For end users the SSP is superb, delivering an intranet style webspace whilst easing the role of Service Desk Operators.
Cons

It is probably best suited for smaller companies without a need to advanced routing. TOPdesk looks to be continuing to develop more modules. It would be helpful to see more focus on optimizing the core application, including a mobile app to make it even easier for employees to log trouble tickets when they need to.
Pros
The ticketing application was relatively quick to set up and deploy. It is easy to use by employees. It allowed employees to log trouble tickets via a button on our intranet rather than needing to remember a different application to visit.
Cons
The application is not flexible in terms of setting up workflows. There is a change management feature that seems underdeveloped and did not prove value-added to deploy.
