Helping companies leverage data and automation on the road to ServiceOps

In a complementary study, the 2022 Gartner Critical Capabilities for ITSM report, Gartner offers more in-depth analysis and detailed use cases to explore how well vendors address specific customer needs.

To us, the Gartner positioning of BMC as a Leader in ITSM is particularly relevant in light of the firm’s views on ServiceOps. Noting the need to provide always-on products and services, Gartner defines “Service operations is the convergence of the infrastructure and application monitoring environments with the ITSM incident management practice to create a quicker and more effective mechanism for diagnosing and resolving incidents. The advent of AI and automation removes the silos, creating the concept of service operations to ensure that incidents can be more readily identified and resolved as soon as possible.”
