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.
Søren Tøpholm - PeerSpot reviewer
It is very easy to use, maintain and deploy
There are situations all the time in my company where the Snow License Manager effectively identifies over-licensing of software, leading to cost savings. It is an effective solution. In Snow License Manager, the most beneficial feature for maintaining compliance revolves around the area of compliance overview. With the product, my company is able to manage all sources of reports on our organization's environment. The reporting analytics feature has aided in our company's decision-making processes. The automated discovery feature in the tool is very good. In my company, I don't know how I would manage if the tool was not available to help me with asset management. The product is easy to maintain. Snow License Manager supports business in contract negotiations by basically giving us all the data to clarify our company's position. I recommend the solution to others. It is very easy to use, maintain, and deploy. I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of BMC Remedy are its ease of use, ease of installation, and customization capabilities."
"The service management features are beneficial – very good."
"The solution helps us manage, escalate, and solve incidents."
"This product is good because it allows us to receive proper responses to business emails anywhere and anytime. It helps in effective communication with employees. The solution is stable. The product is scalable. The initial setup is straightforward. I recommend BMC Remedy, especially for its automation capabilities."
"It includes features for automation, such as smart reporting capabilities."
"There are a lot of features a customer can use. It’s an existing concept of asset management. One feature is the ability to create tickets for various computer systems, VPN defenses, sites, regions, or customers."
"You can develop plugins in different languages, and the workflows can be easily developed depending on the user's needs."
"BMC Remedy Asset Management is pretty easy for quite a lot of functions."
"The discovery is excellent. It is agent-based, and it can also operate without one as long as there is an inventory source, such as SCCM. It may take data from the SCCM and normalize it to provide a very clear idea of what the hardware is, what software is running on it, what versions of that software are available, when is the end-of-life, and when they are no longer supported. All of that information is available."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
 

Cons

"The initial setup of BMC Remedy Asset Management was complex."
"The desktop technicians face some challenges with the solution."
"The tool's GUI is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like to have more customized reporting because the management team loves customized reports with graphs."
"BMC Remedy's change management module needs enhancement."
"Integration and deployment could be better. It could be easier and faster to integrate and deploy. It would also help if we could have a 360-degree view. It would be better if they changed it to a SaaS type of offering, which is becoming the standard."
"There is room for improvement in terms of support."
"When it comes to CMDB, to be able to manage the data, you have to have Atrium integrator, another integrated tool."
"The dashboards provided by the solution have certain shortcomings, making it in areas where improvements are required."
"The support is an area that can be improved. As resellers, we are doing the first-level support because we have trained certified engineers, and we provide support. Because we are in India and they do not have a support center in India, the turnaround time for tickets could be improved. We have to rely on Australia for support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is expensive compared to lower-end solutions, but it's on par with ServiceNow."
"The tool is expensive."
"I find the pricing to be reasonable."
"It is an expensive tool."
"BMC Remedy is worth its price."
"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."
"BMC should decrease the pricing further."
"BMC no longer sells Remedy separately. They've transitioned to selling the BMC Helix platform. Remedy itself is nearing end-of-support."
"I rate the product price as a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"I would rate the pricing a seven or eight out of ten. It is not a cheap solution, but it provides good value for money."
