Review
Elevator Pitch | EV provides a traditional and function rich ITSM toolset, plus a modern looking App store (Service Apps) approach that uses the toolset and other non-proprietary widgets to build customer and process-based tools. |
Industry areas | Good for medium sized organisations who want to leverage either ITSM functionality and/or easy to build (non-IT) service apps. |
Unique points | Self service provided is straightforward and utilizes other industry tools and ‘widgets’ for ease of implementation. |
Target market | SME to large medium sized or smaller enterprise. |
Solutions/ issues solved | Provides a good level of standard ITSM capability, plus industry standard tools to build interfaces and more advanced applications. |
Product/vendor gaps | Workflow, although ‘code-less’ looks basic and not as intuitive/graphics as some of its competitors.
Some functions look like they could be more integrated within the tool – there is a definite old/new split of UX. |

Negatives |
|
Overall view | Looks a good multi function product although doesn’t look and feel like this is really aimed at enterprise, as grown out of SME market.
Provides a good level of complete ITSM and self service capability, plus some nice features around customer data and feedback. Maybe needs more of a non-IT marketing focus to sell the enterprise capability. |

EasyVista allows IT to design secure, integrated and personalized customer facing Apps (interfaces) that bring together elements from disparate systems to create collaborative customer experiences, accessible on any device and that are tailored to their specific needs. One size does not fit all when it comes to the self-service shopping experience. With EasyVista you are no longer tied to a single self-service portal or service catalog. You can create multiple service catalogs and self-service portals that are brandable and can be embedded in any website or existing intranet portal. The flexibility to fully configure a website with a service catalog, chat/video/audio interactions, important customer facing metrics, knowledge articles, social media feeds, software on demand and any other IT or non-IT service related action is simple and accessible with EasyVista.
