Change Management Add-on - ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus

IT businesses operate in a fast-paced and competitive environment. There is continuous scope for change in such environments. Most often, several changes can occur at once. Handling these changes is no doubt challenging considering that they have a huge impact on businesses. This is where change management comes into play - to better manage change and facilitate a smoother transition. It is no more a luxury, but an absolute must-have for IT businesses.

Nevertheless, most organizations don't have a proper change process in place. A structured and process-oriented approach throughout the change lifecycle can help define clarity and move your organization successfully through change.

We, at ManageEngine, understand the challenges involved in implementing a change. That's why we are offering change management as an add-on for Standard and Professional edition customers.
