Change Management
Data Sheet: Nimsoft Service Desk (PDF)
Nimsoft Service Desk features a Change Management module that allows your service desk to evaluate, prioritize, plan, test, document, and implement change requests through the organization—and to do so following ITIL best practices. This service management module ensures that standardized procedures are used for highly efficient, rapid processing of changes, which enables beneficial changes to be made with minimal disruptions to IT services.
Approvals are driven by classification of tickets and configuration items related to the change request to ensure that the correct personnel are notified and can plan the change in a way that benefits the business.
Change
calendars within Nimsoft Service Desk allow change planners, and ultimately the change advisory board (CAB), to see changes at a high level, determine priority, and resolve conflicts between scheduled changes.
