Certification Process
ServiceDesk Plus was put through a detailed certification process, which started with ManageEngine submitting an extensive evaluation criteria checklist provided by SERVIEW GmbH. The checklist included both general and core, module-oriented criteria. This was followed by a live product demo lasting nearly four hours and a thorough two-week evaluation by accredited SERVIEW GmbH consultants. ServiceDesk Plus successfully cleared the evaluation, meeting 100% of the evaluation criteria for 13 ITIL 4 practices.
“With CERTIFIEDTOOL, we create transparency and comparability in the software market for best management practices. ManageEngine has accepted this challenge in the ‘Service Management Version IV’ category and faced more than 700 CERTIFIEDTOOL criteria. ManageEngine has earned the CERTIFIEDTOOL seal of approval for 13 achieved practices! We are looking forward to a continued successful cooperation,” said Michael Kresse, managing director and owner, SERVIEW GmbH.
