    IBM Watson AIOps is well suited for IT Asset Management tasks due to its insightful dashboard that leads our IT Team to track IT Asset usage/requirements in real-time. We have also enjoyed using the reports provided for IT Asset Management which we provide to our upper management team for predictive budgeting purposes. We found that IBM Watson AIOps is not as well suited for our Application resource automation as the tuning (aggressiveness) is not as tunable as we would like.

    IBM Watson AIOps stacks up well with Turbonomic because it basically is Turbonomic. IBM added Turbonomic's feature set into IBM Watson AIOps and we were therefore quite comfortable shifting to the re-branded version introduced by IBM. We do like the fact that IBM Watson AIOps includes the functionality of Turbonomic.

    We wanted it integrated with ITSM and ITBM. Prioir to that we used JIRA for agile development and SysAid for ticketing. So we started with converting SysAid. We went live with Vanilla ITSM. Then we could have a basis for ITOM. However, we needed to migrated from JIRA to ITSM. Only then we felt mature enough to examine ITOM, which required quite a lot of resources. You need networking, motoring, IT and Cyber security team members in your project!!
