  21. Service Manager is Ready for YouCustomers Love the Integration, ROI and Simplicity! • Equiniti With a more streamlined change management process, Equiniti can better handle the hundreds of changes that occur to its IT environment each month. “We’re looking at a definite reduction in the staff hours required to deliver high service levels,” Higham says. “[With Service Manager] It will take 10 minutes instead of an hour to make a change, leaving 50 minutes to fix other problems.” Matt Higham, Technical Strategy Consultant • Avanade “We deployed the program in a matter of weeks with no real learning curve for our staff,” Shulik says. “Out of the box, System Center Service Manager gave us all the functionality we previously had in our heavily customized product, with the added benefit that we can easily deploy new management packs so that we can better manage in our dynamic data center.” Kristin Shulik, Product Manager for IT Management Services • General Mills “Service Manager gives us a ready-made configuration management database [CMDB] by using the data we’ve already collected with System Center Operations Manager,” Cozine says. “We tried for years to build a CMDB with Remedy, but it fell apart under its own weight.” Glenn Cozine, Senior Technical Specialist and Project Manager

In less than two hours, we had a useful, synchronized CMDB that we had not been able to duplicate with Remedy in all the years we have had it installed (more than 15 years).” • Glenn Cozine, Senior Technical Specialist and Project Manager • Avanade • “(Service Manager) helps us gather better intelligence about our infrastructure, which enables us to better plan for hardware replacements, software upgrades, and other modifications to our infrastructure.” • Kristin Shulik, Product Manager for IT Management Services
