We wanted it integrated with ITSM and ITBM. Prioir to that we used JIRA for agile development and SysAid for ticketing. So we started with converting SysAid. We went live with Vanilla ITSM. Then we could have a basis for ITOM. However, we needed to migrated from JIRA to ITSM. Only then we felt mature enough to examine ITOM, which required quite a lot of resources.

• Increased business value: We have managed to eliminate custom solutions and the accompanying infrastructure, lowering the overall cost and effort of managing legacy solutions. Centralizing our service-desk operations within ServiceNow IT Operations Management streamlines licensing and maintenance for increased simplicity and cost savings.
• Reduced service-desk management effort: The automation features we have put in place have decreased the amount of work our helpdesk agents need to do, especially for boring or repetitive tasks. AI and machine-learning capabilities have enhanced inherent decision-making, minimized the risk of human error, and allowed our helpdesk agents to dedicate their time to tasks that require their expertise. For instance, our automation accurately routes incidents 80 percent of the time, resulting in significant time and effort saved.
• Reduced mean time to resolution: As we incorporate new features and update the agent support experience, we are consistently seeing a decrease in resolving incidents. In our pilot project, ServiceNow IT Operations Management Predictive Intelligence lowered MTTR by over 10 percent, on average. Using this data, we are expanding the use of Predictive Intelligence across a larger scope for Global Helpdesk.
