iET Solutions has achieved internationally recognized ITIL 2011 certification for its iET ITSM service management software.

September 4, 2013 - iET Solutions, a global provider of software solutions for service management and software asset management, has achieved internationally recognized ITIL® 2011 certification for its iET ITSM service management software. The certification covers twelve processes managed by iET ITSM version 6.

iET ITSM is a flexible, scalable, easily configurable IT service management solution that is suitable both for large and mid-size enterprises. The certification was undertaken by Glenfis AG, one of only two official ITIL® software assessors licensed by the official ITIL® accreditor, APM Group Ltd.

Martin Andenmatten, CEO of Glenfis AG, said:

"Official certification confirms that a software product complies with the ITIL® Software Scheme and helps users identify solutions that follow ITIL® best practice. iET ITSM has been carefully examined by our experts, and it fully meets the requirements for software functionality set out by the APM Group. With this certification we verify that iET ITSM 6 is fully aligned with the ITIL® guidelines."

Glenfis considered the following twelve processes in respect of functionality and process integration and certified that iET ITSM conforms with best practice:

1 Incident Management 2 Problem Management 3 Change Management 4 Service Asset & Configuration Management 5 Request Fulfillment 6 Service Level Management 7 Knowledge Management 8 Release & Deployment Management 9 Service Portfolio Management 10 Service Catalogue Management 11 Event Management 12 Availability Management

"The renewed accreditation demonstrates to our customers and prospects that iET ITSM continues to incorporate the latest ITIL® recommendations. This acknowledgment by independent experts is particularly important for organizations that want to optimize their processes through ISO 20000 certification or the ITIL® initiative," explained Tobias Müller, Product Manager at iET Solutions.
