Featured Reviews

Rafael  Pinto Ferreira - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers features for modern IT environments like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and continuous optimization and help in predictive maintenance and efficient resource utilization
An area that can be improved is the IoT. I have a customer here in Brazil interested in using it to discover assets that are not technology assets, like in a factory where you have machines that you need to monitor. All these machines already have software that monitors them, but they don't have the artificial intelligence and machine learning that BMC has. So, it's like a marketing issue. It's like a segment of the market that can be more explored. We get some opportunities in that market here in Brazil, so I think it could improve. But they already have a module called Edge, Discovery Edge, which works with the IoT, but I think it can improve that.
