Migrate your Kaseya Vorex Service Desk data
Cloud-native service desk tightly integrated into Kaseya's Omni IT stack, designed for midsize IT teams managing tickets and asset data across the VSA and IT Glue ecosystem.
In its favor
Why people choose Kaseya Vorex Service Desk
The signal that keeps Kaseya Vorex Service Desk on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Integration depth with Kaseya VSA and IT Glue makes Vorex a natural fit for MSPs already running the Kaseya Omni IT stack, reducing context-switching between asset data and support tickets.
Cloud-native multi-tenant architecture appeals to midsize IT teams that want the platform to scale without managing infrastructure, particularly when serving multiple internal departments or client organizations.
The Import Center export mechanism lets non-technical staff pull CSV exports of ticket data per organization without needing API access, useful for auditors and compliance teams.
Kaseya's broader portfolio (VSA, IT Glue, BMS) means a single vendor relationship covers endpoint management, knowledge management, and service desk — simplifying procurement and vendor management for IT leaders.
The service desk UX is functional but visually dated compared to modern alternatives like Freshservice or Zendesk, and workflow customization requires navigating Kaseya's module structure rather than a unified interface.
Advanced automation features, reporting, and multi-site SLA management are gated behind higher tiers, making the platform cost-ineffective for small teams that only need basic ticketing.
The tight Kaseya ecosystem integration becomes a liability when evaluating other platforms — moving away means losing native IT Glue CI links and VSA remote session launch capabilities that teams rely on daily.
API documentation is spread across multiple helpdesk.kaseya.com and bms.kaseya.com subdomains with inconsistent coverage, making it difficult for developer teams to evaluate migration feasibility before committing.

Pricing tiers
Kaseya Vorex Service Desk pricing overview
Pricing is custom and based on organizational size and selected modules; no public per-seat or per-agent pricing is published. Review sites indicate starting prices are custom quotes rather than published tiers. The platform bundles Service Desk with Project Management under the Vorex Business Management umbrella, so customers typically license the broader suite rather than Service Desk alone.

What gets migrated
Kaseya Vorex Service Desk object support
Object-by-object support for Kaseya Vorex Service Desk migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Tickets
Fully supportedTickets are the primary work object in Vorex Service Desk. We migrate ticket records with standard fields (status, priority, type, requester, assignee, timestamps) and conversation threads intact. The platform organizes tickets under Organizations and Service Desks — we preserve this hierarchy in the destination by mapping to equivalent structures.
Organizations
Fully supportedOrganizations in Vorex represent the companies or internal departments submitting tickets. We treat Organizations as top-level contacts/accounts and migrate them with their associated contact records and ticket history. Multi-organization setups are preserved as separate account entities.
Service Desks
Mapping requiredService Desks are the top-level organizational container in Vorex, potentially scoped by department or region. The destination system may not have an equivalent hierarchical container. We flatten Service Desk membership into ticket-level metadata so no tickets are orphaned.
Custom Fields
Mapping requiredVorex exposes a structured custom fields API returning Ref, Caption, Format, Order, and DefaultValue. Custom field formats include text, number, date, dropdown, and checkbox. We map these to the destination's custom field equivalents, preserving format type and ordering. Dropdown list values require explicit enumeration during scoping.
SLA Policies
Mapping requiredSLA Policies define response and resolution time targets tied to ticket priority. These are Vorex-native workflow constructs. We migrate the SLA configuration as named rules and map them to the destination's SLA features, noting that SLA engine behavior varies significantly between platforms.
Attachments
Mapping requiredTicket attachments (documents, screenshots, logs) are associated with individual tickets. We extract and re-upload binary files to the destination. Large attachments (over 25 MB) may require chunked handling. We flag any inline images embedded in ticket descriptions as separate attachment records.
Agents
Mapping requiredAgents are the IT staff who own and resolve tickets. Vorex agents may be linked to VSA user accounts. We map agent records to users in the destination, noting that agent role permissions (admin, technician, observer) may not map 1:1 to the target platform's permission model.
IT Glue Configuration Items
Mapping requiredVorex has bidirectional integration with IT Glue, storing linked configuration items (servers, workstations, software licenses) against tickets. These CI references are external IDs pointing into IT Glue. We extract the CI link data but note that IT Glue itself is a separate Kaseya product — CI references will not resolve outside the Kaseya ecosystem.
Time Entries
Mapping requiredVorex tracks billable and non-billable time logged against tickets for professional services automation scenarios. We migrate time entry records (duration, date, agent, description) as line items in the destination's time-tracking module. Conversion requires matching time entry units (minutes vs. hours) between systems.
