Great interest in ComAround at the Cherwell Global Conference 2016
The integration takes knowledge management to the next level
ComAround was once again one of the exhibitors at the conference with more than 700 Cherwell customers, partners, employees and industry experts. We all shared experiences, insights, and the latest developments within IT Service Management and beyond at the fourth annual conference in Colorado Springs.
Brand new Cherwell mApp
We had the opportunity to speak to many of the participants and demonstrate how ComAround Knowledge™ streamlines their Cherwell solution and takes knowledge management to the next level. We demonstrated the brand new Cherwell mApp, built by the Swedish company Synerity.
The ComAround – Cherwell integration framework makes ComAround’s content even easier to access via existing interaction points in Cherwell Service Management. The brand new mApp gives the team faster avenues to articles, and link in the self-service portal, adds value to the business by driving down the cost of IT support
Increasing demand for a specialized knowledge tool
With an increasing need for accurate and relevant knowledge base content within support organizations today, the ComAround Knowledge™ tool delivers on those key points, for you, your team and your customers. The many discussions we had proved that no matter how great ITSM tool, a specialized tool for knowledge management makes all the difference.
We thank everyone for challenging ComAround with mission specific discussions and input. Hearing from you helps ComAround and Cherwell continue to work to leverage the integration and the services required to help you work more efficiently.
