Deleting the page seems appropriate to me, the content is outdated, and doesn’t convey a very good image. It will be interesting to see the strategy behind what replaces it, or even if it is replaced. BMC is getting their lunch eaten, and falling fast - IMHO. They need a concerted marketing and technical strategy to stay in the game over the long haul. BMC is paying the cost of neglect toward their cash cow.

Greatest mistake they ever made (IMHO). BMC has turned Remedy ITSM into bloat ware. One of the many reasons so many organizations are making the jump to SNow. I still say ARSystem is the superior platform.

WOW! Let's see where the wild ride takes us now... Of course we will probably be left to speculate and come up with our own theories for the foreseeable future; which is always fun.
