We use Cherwell Service Management for our main IT workflows including Incident, Service Request, Customer Self-Service, Change Management, and Asset Management. In addition, IT supports the use of Cherwell for Enterprise Service Management in core functions like HR, Finance, and Student for service desks and customer self-service. Finally, Cherwell is used as a business process engine for a variety of unique workflows that support all the areas already mentioned but also research services, auxiliary services, and healthcare customer service. We use Cherwell in many situations where the business function needs a quick turnaround on digitizing a workflow, setting up a business unit for service ticketing, or the business function is so unique that a custom application is required.

We selected Cherwell because it offered the best value and return on investment by far, while still providing highly sophisticated capability within the platform. But more than that, Cherwell is a company you want to partner with. The level of engagement we have with Cherwell support, product developers, and Cherwell leadership is unparalleled. In addition, Cherwell has a robust customer community that regularly engages with one another through innovation and community tools, frequent user group meetings and customer webinars, and a fantastic annual conference. We feel that Cherwell is our partner, not simply our vendor, and that they are focused on helping us achieve our goals, not just the bottom line.
