What is Incident Management software?
The purpose of effective incident management is to create a framework which allows an organisation to ensure its operations are efficiently restored following any service disruption.

What are the risks of not having Incident Management software?
Failure to implement a robust plan for incident management and response could have serious consequences for the organisation, exposing it to unnecessary risk and disruption.
- Incidents which could have been prevented by being identified earlier may be allowed to escalate.
- The increasing burden of regulatory requirements could leave the organisation open to compliance breaches.
- Your organisation may fail to implement a coordinated incident response if different departments or divisions within the organisation such as finance, HR, marketing or customer support are unaware of an incident.
- Failing to implement effective monitoring systems, track incidents and keep accurate, up-to-date documentation on critical assets and data could leave the organisation open to external attack or in danger of regulatory breaches.
Deploying the best incident management software allows your IT and other support teams to focus fully on their core activities, streamlining the process for incident tracking and reporting.
