The Future of ITSM

The hype about AI is everywhere, and organizations are rushing to buy and use AI-powered tools and technologies. But where can the powers of AI and automation do the most good and provide tangible improvements? Is AI going to wind up being just another “shiny new thing” that fails to live up to the marketing promises, or will it make substantial improvements in the working lives of IT service consumers?

One surefire way to make sure you are getting results that make a real difference is to know where speed and ease matter most. (Hint: Not everything has to be fast to be better.) Gathering and analyzing experience data from your service consumers and acting on what they tell you—in other words, being data-driven—takes the guesswork out of bringing new technologies into your toolkit.

Key takeaways:
- Why experience goes far beyond the legacy satisfaction data.
- The consequences of inside-out thinking and how experience data helps avoid it.
- Making your investment in AI-powered tools produce the best results and better ROI.
