Top Three Advantages for IT: Reduce Downtime, Improve End-User Experience and Prevent Costly Incidents
Today, ManageEngine debuts ServiceDesk Plus 8.1, its ITIL-ready help desk software that features an all-new CMDB, as well as integrated asset management capabilities. The company is demonstrating the solution as a "Gold Sponsor" at HDI 2012 on April 24-27, 2012 in Orlando, Florida, as well as at the Service Desk & IT Support Show on April 24-25, 2012 in London.
To learn more about CMDB and ServiceDesk Plus, ManageEngine released helpful resources for IT professionals, including:
Many IT organizations are managing business-critical systems and services with network monitoring tools, help desk software and other solutions that provide notifications about problems and outages after they've already occurred and are impacting the business. A CMDB helps IT prevent problems before they happen by identifying and managing the relationships and dependencies of all technology assets - hardware, software, services and non-traditional devices - because today, any technology component may become business critical at any time.
For IT shops charged with delivering high quality business services to their users, the top three benefits of CMDB technology are:
"Deploying a CMDB is probably one of the most effective ways IT can proactively manage and optimize their business-critical systems and services," said Uma Shankar, product manager at ManageEngine. "Still, a lot of companies are reluctant to adopt CMDB technology because it has a reputation as being complex and difficult to use. But it doesn't have to be, as we've shown with the ServiceDesk Plus CMDB. So now, we're really challenging people to take a fresh look at CMDB and what it can do for them.""
ServiceDesk Plus (8.1) will be available by the end of April. A free trial demo edition will be available at http://ow.ly/ae66G. The CMDB will be available as an add-on to the ServiceDesk Plus Professional Edition for $995. For additional pricing information, please visit http://ow.ly/9opLy.
