February 2010 by Marc Jacob
LANDesk Software announced its LANDesk Service Desk solution has achieved PinkVERIFY status through Pink Elephant’s software certification scheme for all 14 processes that make up ITIL V3, the worldwide standard for IT service and support. LANDesk is only the third organisation worldwide to demonstrate all 14 of these ITIL capabilities, continuing to build upon its strong IT Service Management (ITSM) offerings driving ROI by providing best practices enabling better, more informed business decisions and simplified infrastructure management.
Developed by the UK government and used by thousands of organisations around the world, ITIL has become the de facto standard for IT best practices and assists organisations in providing the necessary framework for IT Service Management. In order to become certified, the LANDesk Service Desk suite successfully completed a rigorous testing period to ensure all of its processes are up to par with ITIL standards.
Troy DuMoulin, AVP of Product Strategy for Pink Elephant, acknowledges LANDesk’s status: “PinkVERIFY was created to help the IT community find software tools that are compatible within an ITIL environment. We put LANDesk through a rigorous assessment process to ensure its compatibility. Congratulations to the organisation for achieving this important status.”
