Hi Carey I can't answer your question about the difference in name, but the cost of "BMC Atrium CMDB Enterprise Manager" is I think $100k per site, or $1.2M for an enterprise license. Plus costs per endpoint, like $150 per server managed, $10 per desktop, etc.

David, And not to split hairs... but.... Is there any difference between: "BMC Atrium CMDB Enterprise Manager" and "Atrium CMDB" (that comes with any portion of ITSM) ? This question was discussed at last years RUG and no real answer was supplied. (Or I at least did not get the answer.) I mean if the cost of the "Enterprise Manger" is 1.2M and the cost of Service Desk is more like.... 120K (Which should be a reasonable set a user license for the SD application too.) then why would anyone buy "Enterprise Manger"? Why not just buy Service Desk and not use the Service Desk application? -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap....
