> **Kurt** | *February 14, 2020* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10

The notifications component provide the tools needed to keep the impacted user up to date with progress on requests.

### "OK Incident Tracking System that can work well if you automate administration of it." — 2.0/5

> **Adam** | *September 14, 2023* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As a user who just entered and responded to tickets. it did that reasonably well. I could get to a ticket, view history, who raised it, any related systems.The lifecycle of asset management.
> 
> **Cons**: Finding that data (related systems) was sometimes a chore, especially if you hadn't done it for a while. Not sure what kind of integration it does offer, but our install, all users and assets had to be imported using database queries, and it wasn't single sign on.
> 
> Issue tracking and asset management. The ownership of a asset, and its life cycle can be well managed.

### "MSM is the Top of the Incident Management Software products on the market." — 5.0/5

> **Ludwig** | *September 12, 2018* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The MSM software has three major advantages: (a) the OU (Organizational Unit), which represents an organizational hierarchy, and (b) the CI (configuration item), which represents an hierarchy of configurable items (many possibilities). Both give you the power of object oriented structures, which can be configured in many ways. The third advantage is that the CMDB (configuration management database) structure is very versatile and not ony related to typical IT type solutions, such as a defect of a printer, as with most of the incident management products on the market.
> 
> **Cons**: Many possibilities, and therefore a little longer learning curve, but the extra possibilities definitely give an added value to the product.
> 
> We use MSM as an incident management software tool for managing more than 2000 customers in the Benelux territory. Basically this means that we have not just one IT structure to manage, but 2000 IT-type structures to manage for more than 20 software products per customer. And the type of problems are much more complex than just a printer defect. The average problem resolution may go from 1 day to several months of follow-up.

### "It is a tool with all  service management needs for your IT / Non-IT organisation." — 5.0/5

> **Mohammad Hesam** | *September 28, 2016* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use - web based - database programmed - light in term of performance.
> 
> **Cons**: new development procedure is quite done with delays as it needs to be confirmed on base company after lots of analysis.
> 
> It's about 3 years I am playing the role of administrator for MSM and I have gone through lots of  customer requirements and I could found at least one solution with this ITSM tool. I can see  it is getting better and better. It is surely an iso 20000 compatible application and can meet all requirements if you are planning to get the certificate for your company.

After all, service management\nbest practice routinely encourages proactivity over reactivity wherever possible. What we really need is advanced warning of whether our ability to deliver service to our customers is under threat, and if so where does that threat come from, and what can be done to mitigate and remove that threat. Indeed, wherever possible why not allow our well-trained AI capability to implement improvements automatically without human intervention? Removing the underlying cause of incidents before they ever happen has got to be a hugely appealing prospect.\n\nPredict the future with Artificial Intelligence\n\nUsing powerful AI algorithms based on data collated from numerous sources, Marval delivers informative, reactive, predictive and preventative information enabling you to:\n\n- Avoid unplanned down time\n- Offer enhanced service predictability\n- Make more effective use of knowledge and resources\n- Focus on business benefits\n- Adopt an intuitive approach with Machine Learning\n\nWith Marval we also use AI in Problem Management. AI in Problem Management could carry out the incident matching activities previously carried out manually. Using algorithms based on pre-defined pain and impact criteria, it could prioritise the underlying problems and even take that a step further by interrogating vendor websites to automatically identify potential fixes. It could even raise changes and implement the patch if the associated level of risk was deemed acceptable.\n\nService Level Management is another process where we integrate AI. Algorithms based upon service level targets, and the various factors that determine whether\nthey are likely to be achieved (such as capacity, changes, planned staffing levels, budgets etc) could together flag up situations, ahead of time, when service availability might come under threat. Such an “early warning system” would provide time and awareness, allowing for mitigation activities to be conducted proactively, ensuring that robust and cost effective, long-lasting resolutions can be put in place instead of the reactive, sticking plaster solutions that might otherwise have been the only viable option.\n\nMachine Learning enables organizations to work smarter.\n\nMarval includes powerful Machine Learning technology that automates key processes and routine tasks, which effectively reduces the quantity of labour-intensive, monotonous tasks for employees and the subsequent risk of human error.\n\nPowered by natural language processing, it can also resolve issues faster and ultimately improve customer satisfaction and boost employee productivity.\n\nThe simple conclusion  is that Artificial Intelligence and Service Management are made for each other.\nCombine Marval's complete ITSM solution with intelligence built during the last 30+ years and combine this with the latest technologies. Move from a reactive to a proactive approach whenever possible.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/bbc229e4-b705-46a3-afec-f3d638ce5f5d.png","url":"https://www.getapp.ca/software/2067455/msm","@id":"https://www.getapp.ca/software/2067455/msm#software","@type":"SoftwareApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.ca/#organization"},"applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","ratingValue":3.9,"bestRating":5,"ratingCount":8},"offers":{"price":"95","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"GBP"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Windows, Android, Platform ios, Platform ipad"},{"@id":"https://www.getapp.ca/software/2067455/msm#breadcrumblist","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"ITSM Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/292/it-service-management-itsm/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"MSM","position":3,"item":"/software/2067455/msm","@type":"ListItem"}]}]}
