<Quote> THIS IS NOT TRUE. The Remedy user tool 7.5 performs faster than mid-tier 7.5/browser. </Quote>
That is not the case here. Once forms have been cached in the mid tier, it is generally faster than the user tool for most of what we do. Some things are easier to do in the user tool (because I can go directly to the form I want rather than having to navigate to it through various consoles, etc.), but for the most part, things come up quicker in the mid tier (if it's already cached).

The Remedy user tool 7.5 performs faster than mid-tier 7.5/browser. Granted IE 7.x is a piece of crap, so that's a big part of the problem; However, the Remedy fat client still outperforms even Firefox 3.x. Pre-caching in ITSM 7.5.1 and Mid-Tier 7.5 is a major headache and it is buggy. >Will I lose any functionality using the new client as compared to my use of >Remedy User client? >No. The future client provided will enable full usability of AR System or >applications built >on AR System.
