Traditional IT Management (1)
Break/Fix
Problems → tickets/complains → IT staff analyze and fix
the problems → tackle other problems
Reactive – cannot foresee the next problem
Too many problems, too little time
Never enough staff
Lose-lose relationship – irate users, unhappy IT staff
20. 20
Traditional IT Management (2)
Mainly Manual Process
Lack of reliability – omissions, human errors, partial solutions, delays
Lack of consistency – fluctuating service standards
Boring & repetitive
50-100 machines per engineer
Poor Visibility
What is happening, real time, at the endpoints?
Hard to plan ahead
21. 21
Traditional IT Management (3)
Costly
Lots of on-site service – travel time, expenses – city to city, country to
country, continent to continent
Huge IT team, yet no time for more important/profitable projects
User downtime and loss of productivity
Loss of data and business opportunities
Compliance – have to maintain and enforce corporate standards and policy
