2245.0. "Troubleticket again" by COL01::LINNARTZ () Mon May 05 1997 16:12

    I've found some notes inhere about troubleticket. Most pointed to 
    REMEDY as the solution. looking at www.remedy.com, I found most
    Unix vendors listed, but not Digital Unix. 
    
    We've managed to sell a couple of boxes into an pure IBM account.
    They are already using netview/RS6000 and TroubleTicket/Rs6000.
    
    What kind of client would you suggest for Digital Unix? IBM's 
    web for networking products list only SUN and HP as client 
    platforms available for TroubleTicket/Rs6000
    
    are we lost in this space
    
    thanks in advance

2245.1Stoneybrook Troubletracks?WOTVAX::dhcp9.olo.dec.com::milespMon May 12 1997 08:382
Stoneybrook may have a suitable product, think it was called Troubletracks.
(the NSM enginneering  people who looked into this now work for CA)

Stonybrook doesn't exists anymore under this name, they are bought by ascend
or something. BTW they have also decided to stop support and development of
Trouble Trax have a year ago.

Is remedy installed allready at customer site ?

If not, try to contact CA and ask about their HelpDEsk solution (Client
via Web-Interface availible).
CA has doubled their staff working on HD-solutions (main competitor is Remedy).
Ask them for arguements and remeber CA is one of our four major alliance
partners.

    a bit late, but many thanks.
    I attended talk about CA's TNG (the next generation) at Berlin. 
    Yes they've got a troubleticket solution, but my problem is that
    it seems that they don't offer this just as a standalone client
    solution. and I'll run quickly out of arguments explaining a customer
    that he should buy TNG just when he needs some simple TroubleTicket
    clients. 
    I would have hoped that PM could get IBM  to provide a client
    solution for us as they did for other UNIX vendors.
    
    Somebody know's if I can script TTicket to remote Display, as this
    seems the only workable solution (price/.... related).
