Groove vs Jira Service Desk vs Jitbit

Groove

Groove works great for small teams that have no demand for sophisticated features. It has all the basics and offers a good upgrade over doing customer support in a shared mailbox. Their knowledge base is very good as well and offers nice customization options. If you have a bigger team and need to collaborate on a lot of tickets it is probably best to look somewhere else.

Jira Service Desk

Jira Service Desk is a very sophisticated help desk apps for a reasonable price. If you have complex business process and SLAs and need a high customization level Jira is a good pick for you. It allows you to change how most of the things work to make it suit your needs. However, it obviously has a bigger learning curve than most others. One of the few apps that offer an on-premise version. Standard plan was used in the comparison.
