## Review summary

SolarWinds Service Desk app offers a convenient and user-friendly interface for managing tickets on mobile, with recent improvements in search and core features. However, multiple users report persistent issues like broken and inconsistent notifications, problems typing ticket replies due to keyboard malfunctions or crashes, and limited functionality compared to the desktop version—lacking asset and inventory management, custom filters, and notification settings. While useful for basic ticket handling, these gaps and reliability issues impact overall usability.

### Pros

- The app has a convenient and easy-to-use interface, helping users manage tickets efficiently.
- Mobile access to ticketing and basic incident management is appreciated by users while on the go.
- Recent updates have improved key functionalities like search and fixed notable bugs.
- Integration of service catalog and inventory features is a positive development.
- The app supports essential ticket operations such as viewing, assigning, and closing tickets effectively.

### Cons

- Push notifications are unreliable, with many users reporting inconsistent or completely broken notification delivery for months.
- Typing replies in tickets is problematic; the keyboard often does not appear or the app crashes when posting longer responses.
- Important desktop features like tasks, asset management, inventory, procurement, and custom filters are missing or limited on the app.
- There is a lack of notification management options, such as filtering notifications for specific ticket groups or audible alerts.
- Issues with single sign-on have been reported historically, and navigation problems persist, such as not opening the app or ticket when clicking notifications.
