the link grants us insight into these processes and we can send monthly reports. This lets the management immediately see what is going well and what isnt.
THE LINES IN OUR REGISTRATION PROCESS ARE SHORTER AND EVERYTHING IS MUCH FASTER
help maintain the overview. We only register such incidents via SCOM. Previously this process was not only timeconsuming, but a lot of knowledge was also lost. The help desk information was not always as complete as you would want: they cannot know the technical details of everything, so they are not always able to properly explain the situation. With TOPdesk, this step is now removed. One click and everything is sent to TOPdesk, and you immediately have all the information you need right there on your screen.
Straightforward reporting
SCOM lets organizations see server error messages. Thanks to the TOPdesk-SCOM link, these can be put through to TOPdesk in two clicks. But why do this in TOPdesk, if SCOM has already indicated that something has gone wrong in the IT infrastructure? Taminiau explains. We want to register everything. If a hard disk breaks or is full, SCOM lets us know. But we did not have a clear view of the number of errors that were generated for things that broke or did not go well.

Shorter lines
Now the lines in our registration process are so much shorter, everything is faster, explains Taminiau. This saves time for the helpdesk, but also for us. This lets us get straight back to our work.

All in all
Taminiau says that the TOPdesk link with SCOM has made his work a lot easier. He believes that every organization that uses both tools should have this link. Its simple, he says. If you use SCOM and have TOPdesk, this link is a solution. You can seamlessly integrate your service management and your system management. Soon we will be upgrading SCOM and switching to the newest version of TOPdesk. We are very satised with how things are going now.
