Understood. But then I wonder, what does SRM give you that the Requester Console doesn't? What justifies the purchase?

I do have to disagree that the ITSM Requester Console is "practically useless." The console is certainly not the console to end all consoles, but it does make a good starting point as an interface for Joe User into Remedy. Like anything in Remedy, it's true value is determined in how much your own users interact with Remedy. If Requesters are only creating basic tickets, viewing their own tickets, completing surveys, looking for announcement bulletins, and maybe reading a FAQ or two, then the Requester Console can work pretty well. If you need something a bit more complicated, then you are probably better off either designing your own or maybe looking into SRM. Just my two cents on the matter......

ORG> 09/27/2007 08:22 AM Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] RG John, you said the Requester Console is "practically useless." Would you mind expounding on that a bit? I'm trying to assemble as much independent product info that I can from people using/configuring them. I asked this question yesterday, and I'm addressing this to the entire list, but didn't get much response--what does SRM deliver that the Requester Console does not? -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of john rosquist Sent: Wednesday, September 26, 2007 7:23 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG <mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG> Subject: Re: Incident & Problem...Separate Purchases? ** The requestor console is intended to be a light weight "free" front end to incident and change so that users can submit ticket and query for results with out needing an app license. That said, it is practically useless, unless that is all you want or need. Incident and Problem are bundled together under the service desk banner.

Thanks... You know, I've seen the Requester Console, and to me it doesn't look like it's intended to be used by an end user (customer). Am I right? -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Don Simmons Sent: Wednesday, September 26, 2007 1:53 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Incident & Problem...Separate Purchases? The Requester Console can be used with just a read license. The user will have access to Approval Central and Requester Console form the Home Page. They will be able to submit Change and Incident request. They can also view their submitted request.
