T4S SureStart℠ For Cherwell
Faster Time to Value for Your ITSM Solution
Cherwell® Service Management (CSM) is the modern choice for IT service management (ITSM). CSM is a powerful software solution that provides IT teams the flexibility needed for rapid configuration and customization, minimal overhead, and frictionless upgrades — at a fraction of the cost and complexity associated with competing ITSM tools. Cherwell’s codeless design architecture means your service desk can be truly “agile”. With powerful workflow and process automation capabilities and native support for eleven ITIL processes, CSM provides the ability to add new functionality without writing or modifying code, integrate easily with third-party applications, and upgrade without fear of breaking what you’ve built.
T4S SureStart and SureStart+ offer the fastest time to value for your Cherwell investment! The T4S SureStart is designed for customers that need very quick deployment and can accept this structured approach.
