Cons
"If a user isn't using an out-of-the-box configuration, it can get a bit complex.""The UI is quite outdated.""The solution must be flexible.""There is room for improvement regarding the customization as it tends to lag in terms of flexibility, particularly in comparison to competitors.""One area that requires improvement is the prevention of duplicates or data inconsistencies in the system.""BMC Remedy Asset Management could improve by adding intuitive dashboards.""I would like to have more customized reporting because the management team loves customized reports with graphs.""There are issues from a product functionality perspective."

More BMC Remedy Cons →

"The asset management tool is costly.""The engineering area needs improvement.""The assets that can be discovered are pretty easy to manage, but there should be a better way to manage non-discoverable assets. Our development team works on bots and tests particular hardware. They have got different varieties of hardware. They want a feature for managing these assets within a warehouse kind of environment. For example, our IT has received 100 items, and they have assigned these items as a bulk unit to a project manager. The project manager further wants to distribute these items within his or her team. Instead of maintaining a separate Excel sheet, the project manager should be able to reallocate these items from within the tool so that we have hierarchical entities for the same unit."
