The UK-based fashion retailer faced several IT service management challenges, including an outdated ITSM tool that lacked essential features for ITIL-compliant managed services and robust reporting capabilities. This led to inefficiencies in operations, with users experiencing poor service quality and a lack of visibility into assets. The absence of a centralized service management platform hindered streamlined operations, while legacy monitoring systems made it difficult to proactively identify and resolve issues, ultimately impacting service delivery and user satisfaction.
