Oracle IT Service Management Suite (discontinued)

It is helpful when someone wants to reassign issues and delegate tasks to other co-workers. However, it is not a good place for documentation because it is difficult to navigate older issue tickets. This is my personal experience with RightNow, an Oracle application used to manage our incident reports and project tracking documents

• It kept a log of all our issue tickets going back many years.
• Oracle made it easy to collaborate on issue tickets and work with my team members.
• It offered a number of features for formatting and inserting images and links, to make our issue tickets resemble an email.
• Oracle helped our department to delegate issue tickets and monitor each other's projects.

Incentivized

• The search function was very poor, which made it difficult to find our issue tickets in RightNow.
• The Reply feature was kind of messy at times, it was difficult to find out who originally sent in tickets and reply all to people.
• It could have looked a bit sleeker, it looked somewhat outdated in the RightNow function.

Incentivized

• It was helpful because it was our only system for organizing incident reports, and it was where I worked 70% of the time to correspond with our customers.
• The interface was sometimes time-consuming to use, and I wondered if there would have been a more streamlined program to use. It made our work seem slow at times.
• This program did provide us with a back-log of all of our issues, so it was important for us to use to in order to find repeated incident reports.
