    Desktop Alert is NOT DeskAlerts

    Date: Sep 04 2025

    Summary: Desktop Alert is NOT DeskAlerts. Desktop Alert profits off of the name confusion by offering a very watered down and inferior product that sort of does the same core function, but not as well, more difficult to use, and offers NONE of the other benefits of DeskAlerts.

    Desktop Alert will take your money and run. They force hefty implementation and engineering costs on you (the equivalent of paying 5K for what should be PDF install guide, an FAQ, and maybe a video).

    Don't make the mistake I did, as Desktop Alert will NOT give you a refund, even a partial one. We cancelled our agreement immediately after realizing the error (that they are NOT DeskAlerts), never used their product in Production, and they still will not cooperate with a reasonable request to refund minus time spent.

    Positive: None. This alert software is dated, clunky, and not end-user friendly. My techs could handle it, but only because they are familiar with old crappy software :\

    Negative: Scammers profiting from name confusion with known big brand.
