"Very effective ticketing system"
Comments: Cherwell Service Management has been a very effective ticketing system for our operation. It rewards inquisitive users who have some experience with SQL queries. It integrates with our email system, so we end up receiving and answering email inquiries from our user community through the Cherwell interface. It gives good reporting, and good statistics, although the reporting requires some effort to access. It has been a good system for my organization
Pros: Customization of searches; use of an SQ-like search format to build queries that can then be saved and reused
Cons: Requires some level of training in order to increase personal customization. Occasionally have multiple people working on the same tickets, so some tickets get resolved with ineffective solutions while others are working on them. Reporting requires some effort to access.

"Cherwell ITSM very customizable"
Comments: The overall experience has been good, the product is excellent, but you need to invest additional money for the implementation.
Pros: Cherwell is a robust ITSM, you can customize the forms, notifications, workflows, almost everything.
Cons: You need specific training to configure and implement the changes. Cherwell has partners and you need to contact and contract them for the implementation. They need to improve their content on the web for the recent versions.

"Standard functionality but horrible UX"
Comments:
We use Cherwell as a ticketing system for the help desk as well as change management system. The user interface is challenging, to say the least. There are frames within frames that have to be scrolled through separately to see all of the information. The text box containing the user's message is so small, it show the tiniest portion of the message. To expand it, you have to pop open a new window, which automatically inactivates the main window so you have to trick the system in order to see multiple tickets at once.
The emailing functionality is clunky - the initial email you send to a customer uses one link but replies after that need to use a different "email" button that is oddly hard to find. When a customer sends a reply, the ticket displays in a different color, but that is the only notification. So if they send multiple messages, you wouldn't know unless you fully open the ticket and that is cumbersome.
There's an inactivity timeout that may not apply to everyone, but it's a hassle. The system times out after an hour of inactivity but it isn't consistent - sometimes it will run for days with no activity and not sign me out and other times it's at 60 minutes on the dot. Also sometimes when I'm logged out automatically, it doesn't actually log me out so when I try to log back in, I'm locked out.
Overall, with the current UX, it would have to be the cheapest option available for me to recommend it to anyone.
Pros:
Help desk tickets are tracked
Released changes are tracked
Cons:
User experience
Look and feel of the software
Search functionality
Notification process
Inactivity timeout

"Consistent Reliability and Functionality"
Comments: Exceptional Experience of which has made management of my position easy.
Pros: This ticket system is efficient and as customizable as the person might choose if they have the know-how and drive to do so, ease of function and redirect allows for a streamlined system for resolution of issues.
Cons: It could be more intuitive in some areas and the report pulling leaves a lot to be desired on this area of opportunity
