    Super straightforward implementation with this software. My company set it up without help from the vendor. We were able to use their installation guide. It might be truly designed for the ICT industry, however, it is easily adaptable for other clients in different industries.

    Micro Focus Universal Discovery and Universal CMDB is well suited for medium to large IT operations after a careful review and strategy definition of all support tools that will be integrated. When it comes to deciding on a set of tools for IT operation management and its different processes like Incident, event, and change management; a good approach would be to create a roadmap with the integrated suite of tools to create a native ecosystem and reduce complexity on the integration and adoption.

    Old versions which do not support CMS have a luck of user experience and performance for reports and service modeling.
