Cons
- It is easy to do first deployment in wrong direction - maybe there should be better guidance how to setup services/service instances to properly work at the end.
- Reporting is based on predefined templates - to get most of them you have to properly implement services in IT - it is not an easy process
- Integration with O365 for out of office would be helpfull
Likelihood to Recommend
Great visibility of asset assignment to user but not so good if you track also assignment of user rights through CI for users. It would be nice if you can group types of assets/configuration items to user not to show everything mixed up.
There is great options to adopt product to your particular needs, there are options for adding some special fields in process automation to help to have tailored process from enduser fill in forms to complex workflow which utilises various specialists
