Digital platform provides stable and valuable support for technical staff
The digital place is very interesting for users, and Smart IT is a very good platform for our technical staff. BMC Remedy is very stable and operational, with users being highly accustomed to using it. It is very stable and scalable, making it a valuable tool for our support team.

A stable and clever solution, but it is very complex and it needs a lot of improvements
There are a lot of things that need improvement. Software recognition, software licensing, software compliance, data inputs, reporting, and support are some of the areas. It needs a discovery tool of its own. You have to get that from other Micro Focus products, which means you have to pay more to get those products.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The tool's automation features are fully capable, especially for IT automation. The asset management capabilities meet expectations."
"The most valuable features of BMC Remedy are its ease of use, ease of installation, and customization capabilities."
"The discovery feature of BMC Remedy has been very valuable."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It has some good features for tracking. They also have a cloud and a mobile access feature."
"If BMC Remedy could integrate everything together in one solution, rather than integrating with third-party solutions, and make the experience smooth, it would be perfect."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"It had automation, orchestration, service level management, and event management. You could also integrate it for auto-remediation."
"We have now automatic and immediate control of assets usage, and we can now better manage our assets pool and get benefits through that."
"This product can be customized according to the needs of any company."
"It is stable and scalable."
 

Cons

"Maybe the network automation aspects need improvement."
"The solution is very expensive."
"The initial setup of BMC Remedy Asset Management was complex."
"There is room for improvement regarding the customization as it tends to lag in terms of flexibility, particularly in comparison to competitors."
"The tool can be expensive for mid-market businesses, making it an area that can be considered for improvement by BMC Remedy."
"Could be more user friendly for admins to manage."
"BMC works through intermediaries or vendors for support, so you don't always interact with BMC directly. The quality can vary depending on the specific vendor."
"Continuous improvement is recommended."
"There are a lot of things that need improvement. Software recognition, software licensing, software compliance, data inputs, reporting, and support are some of the areas."
"The technology used is outdated, the interface is outdated, the database is outdated, everything is outdated."
"The usability of this product is still out-of-date and could be improved. The interface could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is on the expensive side."
"The product is costly. On one to ten points, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the product's price as nine."
"The pricing is in-between. It's not too cheap, and it's not too expensive. For a large organization, it's worth it. But for a smaller one, it might be a bit costly."
"The tool is expensive."
"BMC no longer sells Remedy separately. They've transitioned to selling the BMC Helix platform. Remedy itself is nearing end-of-support."
"I find the pricing to be reasonable."
"With the product, you can either go for a yearly or a perpetual licensing model."
"BMC Remedy is worth its price."
"From my experience, Asset Manager is expensive."
