Before you choose
Match the problem workflow
Look for root-cause analysis, a known-error database and workaround tracking if your process needs a record from discovery through mitigation.
Incident linking and permanent-fix tracking connect a problem record to related incidents and the change that resolves it.
Separate free plans from trials
A free plan and a free trial are different. Check whether access continues without payment, how long a trial lasts and what paid access costs after it ends.
Published examples vary: ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus lists a free plan, paid access from $13 per month and a 30-day trial. GLPI lists a free plan, paid access from €19 per user per month and a 45-day trial.
Check deployment and platforms
The list covers web, API, self-hosted, Android, iOS and Windows support. Confirm the platforms and deployment model that fit your service desk and users.
A self-hosted option can matter when you need control of the installation. API access can matter when problem records must connect to other systems.
Review licence and commercial terms
Open-source availability is one comparison point, but licence terms still determine how you can run or change a tool. Read the licence before committing code or hosting resources.
For paid products, check whether pricing is published or requires a request. Trial access can help you review the workflow before a purchase.
