Challenge	Brooke, an international equine welfare organization, was facing challenges with its legacy ITSM tool. The management team wanted to evolve towards a more proactive approach, foreseeing and responding to issues rather than waiting for them to unfold. With significant investments in staff and technology services, it was crucial to improve employee productivity and power the next phase of growth. Brooke needed a mechanism to foster this culture, while being able to measure and evaluate the impact of their investment in technology and employees. The Information Services team, consisting of over 50 service agents, was using JIRA for their internal ticketing requirements. To efficiently manage asset tracking, streamline technology workflows for different service requests, and overhaul the existing functionality, Brooke began evaluating solutions based on UI simplicity, ease-of-use, flexibility in features, ITIL framework compliance, scalability, and cost-effectiveness.
