For most IT organizations, change is a constant. The objective of change management is to ensure that positive changes are made and that the required changes are controlled and do not have serious impact or cause major disruption to their IT services. Most of these changes may involve some level of risk during implementation, and users should be made aware of that risk. Change workflows make it easier to initiate and execute the change as well as keep people informed throughout the change process.
"Organizations need to be proactive and counter resistance to critical changes well in advance," said Uma Shankar, product manager, ServiceDesk Plus, at ManageEngine. "To do that, you need an organized and methodical process to give you complete information at each stage of the change management process. ServiceDesk Plus now offers a systematic way of handling the complete change process to ensure change is accomplished successfully."
