Microsoft Entering ITSM Tool Space with Service Manager

brian1ticomix — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 15:45:06 +0000

It seems like Microsoft will enter any market space just to show they can. Does it add any value to the industry for them to enter the ITSM tool space with “Microsoft Service Center Service Manager”, or is this simply a distraction? My initial reaction is that the net result will be a) that Microsoft diverts resources to this that could be used to improve their mainstream products, and b) that all kinds of executives will say “we want this” because they saw it in an airline magazine. (Which will result in many dollars spent implementing software that won’t provide much benefit to the organization compared to alternatives that already exist in the industry. Wait, isn’t this whole ITIL thing supposed to be about business-IT alignment?)

I’m willing to be convinced otherwise, though. I’m going to be spending some time looking at this further and will post updates at:
