The global study found that enterprises migrating to BMC Helix for enterprise service management (ESM) and IT service management (ITSM) from legacy solutions experienced a return on investment of 361%. Enterprises that expanded their deployment to the full BMC Helix solution set, including IT Operations and DevOps, achieved the following key benefits from their investments:

  • 20% increase in agent productivity: The BMC Helix solutions boost agent productivity through cognitive automation capabilities, a streamlined user interface/user experience and single-pane-of-glass view with multi-cloud integrations, and analytics for lower mean-time-to-repair.
  • 50% of tickets resolved through self-service and automation: Half of tickets are resolved before reaching the service desk through self-service with single consolidated service catalogs, knowledge articles and chatbots, and orchestrated automation triggered from self-service and/or self-remediation, reducing the cost of service delivery.
  • 33% of IT Operations resources "shifted-left" to free up skilled IT resources: By deploying the BMC Helix suite of solutions, organizations gained cloud benefits such as simplified management and regular updates, while gaining capabilities to monitor, manage, streamline, and orchestrate the increasingly complex IT estate. The full solution set automates 12% of IT Operations' workloads, empowering employees to focus on programs that drive innovation, capability enhancement, and automation.
  • 90% reduction in incidents caused by DevOps changes: Orchestration and third-party integrations help avoid wasted time for data entry across systems, streamline testing, and allow DevOps teams to release more quickly and frequently. By reducing friction between IT governance and DevOps, organizations experienced 90% reduction in incidents caused by changes, which accelerates the ability to focus on strategic business priorities.
