Did they bring it out with reasonable pricing, or is it still as astronomical as they estimated several months ago during product preview briefings? My first impression was that it would not matter how good it was - only the most massively funded operations were going to be able to afford it, rather like Service Impact Manager.

Hi Colin... BMC Service Request Management 2.0 replaces the original Requester Console. It has just recently been released and is the newest expansion of the ITSM Suite. This feature truly makes the Service Desk the SPOC (Single Point Of Contact). The BMC guys have packed their bags and are going on a road trip to Demo this new module... Try this link: http://www.bmc.com/support/hou_Support_ProdVersion/0,3648,19097_19695_14 8332_0,00.html Once configured properly - all the end user will need to do is make a selection from a service catalog (from a fancy new interface) - then a service request is opened. Behind the scenes you can define whether or not a incident, change or work order template (AOT - Application Object Template) will be opened. I have created Service Request Definitions(SRD) that open multiple change requests, multiple work orders, and other SRDs (i.e. in the case of a New Hire). Let me know what you think...
