Re: Returning to Remedy after a long hiatus
Hey Rick... Welcome back! If you really want to ramp up quick - I would suggest some of the online courses (they are not that expensive anymore). http://www.bmc.com/education/learning-paths It's not like the old days where one guy can know all the modules - let alone the ARS platform. Hey Lee - great idea about the annual fee!!! On Wednesday, July 25, 2012 8:44:17 AM UTC-4, Lee Cullom wrote: > > Rick, > > The Remedy culture lives on! Welcome back!

Re: Returning to Remedy after a long hiatus
Rick, The Remedy culture lives on! Welcome back! I had to leave home for a time too... in order to ensure that this home was the best home. Let me tell you this... after exploring Service-Now, CA SDM, HP SM, IBM TSRM, Remedy and SDE in-depth. Remedy still remains the best. What's interesting is that the real threat to Remedy is Remedyforce because of the force.com platform. But, what's even more interesting than that is that Remedy ARS is still a better platform than force.com. I wish BMC would turn Remedy into a PaaS before it's too late! Anyone up for paying $999/year to be part of a Remedy development community for unlimited development access to Remedy? Please vote yay now on the list... BMC - please watch the revenue stack up as the yes's come in... And then, let's build some apps that go head to head with force.com... and let 'em feel the ARSlist dev community heat!
