Offers automation, orchestration, service level management but lacks AI-based rules
BMC Helix is the upgraded version and incorporates many new ways of working for service operations. It's a significant improvement. Helix offers analytics, AI-based rules, a smart digital console, and workflow management. Remedy doesn't have these features. That's a significant difference. BMC Helix seems to be a strong competitor to ServiceNow, while Remedy wasn't at the same level.

Provides good stability, but it could be intuitive and easier to use
The product’s current version could be easier and straightforward to work with small IT organizations, similar to the older version. Its asset management feature has been significantly affected since the upgrade. Earlier, it was able to perform skill-based routing automatically. We could set up parameters within the system and view the details of the incident or a ticket. The same functionality needs to be fine-tuned in the new system.
