Service Requests. Incident, Problem, and Change management across the whole organization (or that was the intent). Actually primarily used by IT. Originally it sold to us for use with knowledge management as well but that was a total failure.
Pros
It was a low cost solution
The service catalog is an ITIL compatible format
Cons
Service requests, incident, problem, and change management
Knowledge mgmt is not-existent - the product uses a WIKI for it's own knowledge base.
Axios help desk does is not knowledgable and does not follow up on reported incidents
Training is incomplete - no real resources available except billable by the hour.
Likelihood to Recommend
I would suggest that in this product class, you get what you pay for. Although it is was sold as SAAS with a nearly 'plug and play' implementation, at least one full time highly trained admin is needed for ongoing support. I would advise a team implementation strategy.
