Has efficient automation features and the ability to integrate with multiple systems
The initial setup is quite difficult for the latest versions from 2020 and beyond and can take about four to five hours. It can now be deployed on the cloud. Oracle offers the same images for on-premise and cloud deployments, making it easy to switch between the two. I created the docker image using VM and completed the setup in a few hours.

Flexible, stable, and allows for faster delivery of support

Templates can be added and edited, thus saving the agent time when on the ticket. I believe that this will contribute to the agent's knowledge, once coming across new ways of customer writing templates.
