### "Since 2017 Giva Supports Our Complex CS Workflow w/ Best Reporting & Copilot" — 5.0/5

> **Kristin** | *21 October 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Giva has proven invaluable for supporting our diverse technology product ecosystem, which includes over a dozen different software products ranging from our BankingQ product to our Prior Authorization platform.  Giva’s intuitive ticket management system allows our team to efficiently track and resolve customer issues across multiple healthcare applications while serving more than 200 employees. What particularly impresses us is Giva's staff performance reporting capabilities, which provide actionable insights into our team's productivity and response times without penalizing staff for factors beyond their control. We intend to build out our knowledge base to leverage Giva’s powerful AI Copilot that is included as standard and it’s private and covered under our BAA.
> 
> **Cons**: The new releases are very rapid and we have to read the release notes every 3 weeks, but no reconfiguration necessary. Not a serious complaint/we are pleased using Giva since 2017. Our customers are very happy...Giva helps us every day meet the high demands of a healthcare/HIPAA environment.
> 
> We’ve been using Giva since 2017 and our organization continues to rely on this robust service desk platform for managing our complex customer service/support needs. As a healthcare billing clearinghouse serving the many different industries, we require a HIPAA-compliant solution that can handle sensitive medical data while maintaining operational efficiency.&#10;&#10;The platform's HIPAA compliance features are essential for our healthcare operations, ensuring all sensitive patient information remains secure throughout the support process. Giva's customizable dashboards and real-time reporting have dramatically improved our visibility into critical issues, enabling faster resolution times and higher first-contact resolution rates. The 24/7 USA-based technical support has been consistently responsive, typically addressing our queries within an hour. After almost a decade of partnership, we confidently recommend Giva to other healthcare organizations seeking a scalable, secure, and user-friendly service desk solution that grows with your business needs.

### "Exceptional Responsiveness to Our Enhancement Requests-HIPAA Compliant Ticketing System" — 5.0/5

> **Mike** | *20 June 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What truly sets Giva apart from other solutions we've used is their exceptional responsiveness to enhancement requests. Unlike competing platforms that either charge premium prices for customization or place requests in never-ending backlogs, Giva actively collaborates with us to implement needed improvements. When we identified a reporting gap related to resolution versus closure timing, Giva quickly worked with us to develop a solution that met our exact requirements.&#10;Giva's agile development approach with new monthly product releases provides tremendous value compared to other vendors who might only deploy critical security updates monthly. This continuous improvement model ensures we consistently benefit from new features and enhancements without additional cost or lengthy implementation delays. Their function-rich interface contains all the capabilities we need.
> 
> **Cons**: The IT and other teams don't have any cons to mention now. If we bring issues to Giva they do address.
> 
> The Giva intuitive reporting system rates highly in our assessment, offering both pre-built analytics and custom report capabilities that support our complex operational requirements. We particularly appreciate the ability to download comprehensive datasets for further manipulation in our business intelligence tools. Combined with excellent support and training resources, Giva's platform has become an indispensable component of our Customer Service delivery strategy, helping us maintain high customer satisfaction while optimizing resource allocation.&#10;&#10;Using Giva HIPAA compliant ticketing system, we have achieved outstanding business results. We now resolve our Customer Service tickets 60% to 70% faster because it's easy to use and provides powerful reporting capabilities.  Overall, on a scale of 1 to 10, Giva is an 8 or 9, so we are very pleased with it.

These features have streamlined our workflow and reduced duplicate requests, ultimately enhancing our overall efficiency. &#10;&#10;On overall functionality we rate Giva a 9 out of 10. One of its standout features is macro functionality, which has increased our productivity by approximately 30-40%.

It not only saves time but also improves the patient’s experience by providing prompt and standardized responses.
>
