Adding to what Shawn said, I have noticed in recent times with a couple of projects that I worked on, managements like products like AlarmPoint. They felt that is money well spent.. I must admit that it does have some cool communication features for ARS.. I know its compatible with 6.3 but not sure if it has hooks for 7 as yet just in case you guys are looking to upgrade anytime too soon...
Management also likes accountability, so if you can work on your SLA module and be creative around it to pick on some of your key business areas putting them heavily under the SLA hammer, I think they might like that.. Though that might not make you a favorite amongst some others :-) Joe PS: I do not represent AlarmPoint and this isn't a sales pitch for them. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Pierson, Shawn Sent: Wednesday, June 06, 2007 11:06 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Question: Enhancements with the big wow factor Dan, In my experience, you most impress management with items that deal with communicating things. They will not be all that impressed if you are able to do something that makes the CMDB return results three times faster. What impresses them are things relating to notifications, reporting, and integrating with other products that they use. It sounds like your email ideas fit in with that. One that I have on my list for 2008 projects is email based approvals, specifically from the blackberry. The approvers should not have to log in to the application, but rather get an email with a description of the Change Request that they can respond to with things like "Approve". If you do something like that, it will probably go over well too. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Caissie Sent: Wednesday, June 06, 2007 9:15 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Question: Enhancements with the big wow factor Hi everyone I have a question for you, I'm looking to create a new list of enhancements to work on in Remedy 6.3 (trying to beat management to the punch). So I'm looking to create a list of enhancements that will have the greatest impact to the company and that will make management just go WOW.
