Featured Reviews

ArbenKlaiqi - PeerSpot reviewer
Impact modeling boosts service mapping efficiency with great technical support
The biggest benefit in my area is impact modeling. Impact modeling helps to map a service that has different applications in it, with those applications having interdependencies with each other. When changes, incidents, problems, and so on occur, it will show exactly where the issue is, helping you to find the root cause much faster. This helps all organizations reduce their mean time to resolution.
Donna Boyd - PeerSpot reviewer
Reporting capabilities improve compliance and flexibility exceeds expectations
The mainframe need improvement. Flexera One does not have an agent for it, so it can't report on mainframe usage. Several people have suggested it as an improvement. One feature I would like to see in the tool is the ability to handle everything in one place. If not, it is what it is.
