Major sources of enterprise risk eliminated
- The CIO & IT will no longer be dependent on homegrown scripts, spreadsheets and tribal knowledge to manage changes.
- Configuration “Franken-tools” are eliminated, because Franken-tools are risky tools that take on a life of their own, growing in complexity over time and encourage hard-to-hire and hard-to-train tribal knowledge to operate and maintain. Job changes, retirements and even vacations become sources of enterprise vulnerability in a Franken-tool environment.

Like DevOps teams, Managers are also under pressure. Managers need to deliver true IT automation and ROI for their organizations. They need to show measurable results – savings in time and money. Everyone knows that environments are becoming more and more complex while the old ways are not working as well as they used to. Therefore they don’t want to just know what’s wrong. Teams need to fix what’s wrong…and to prevent similar configuration hassles from happening again. Managers and execs also know that homegrown tools, repurposed software and complex, proprietary processes introduce unnecessary, preventable risk to their enterprise.
