Avantages

OTRS office management is a pre-configured software manage work in all areas. It help to reduce workload and save our time.

Inconvénients

The only thing that I like least is that I found it a bit complicated.

Avantages

I've been using OTRS for quite a few years now, and it's an excellent piece of software that makes my life as a sysadmin/support desk guy easier. OTRS understands ITIL, end users and IT pros, and the software supports that. You can link tickets, make internal notes, make FAQs, paste images into text fields, send e-mails, etc. You can also do templates, customize columns, set alerts when things take too long, etc. It's really nice. It even works with our ADFS server, which is excpected of a tool like this, but still. In short, OTRS is versatlize and customizeable.

Inconvénients

There have been minor (cosmetic) bugs here and there, every now and then, which are slightly annoying. Often you can fix these things yourself, but OTRS's configuration is very complex and requires some insight and experience. So in the end, you're gonna have to contact support or read the extensive manual. But buth those options work.

Avantages

As both a user and an administrator of the software i found the following in my last year of using the software :

Ease of use
Flexibility

Powerful Tools

Inconvénients

Although i found this to be the most user friendly of the ticketing there are a few things i think might be improved in the future :

Lacking a few features out of the box

Avantages

1. Open-source
2. ITIL based solution
3. Flexible configuration
4. Built-in processes

Easy for users.
Many features available where to pick the more suitable for your needs

Some features are not easy to implement.

Avantages

No pros anymore as OTRS AG has discontinued the community (free) version. Version 6 will be the last free version.

Inconvénients

Since there is no community version anymore, business version (commercial) is expensive and lack a lot of features when compared to some newer players.

Avantages

Incident management and request fulfillment processes are fully covered by the tool.
It's highly customizable and very stable.

Inconvénients

There are two things:
1. Change management process is a little bit hard to implement;
2. The trend to go into the cloud. We're very conservative organization and we prefer to operate on-premise solutions.

Avantages

We use it on a regular basis and it helps us monitor tickets and work on them. It's absolutely essential for an ITIL based service desk

Definitely will have great cost saving post implementation.

Inconvénients
