  2. Problem – You’re working from home and don’t have access to VPN, only email but need to work ticketsORHave a mobile team that runs around the building working tickets, hardly ever at their desks.
  3. Useful if at client A’s site when responding to client BORLarge org and travel around to work on ticketsOnly work for Admins – End users cannot useWork throughout the app (Ticket Rules/Mobile Apps/Admin UI)
  4. Spiceworks out of the box – Good/useful/powerfulSpiceworks with Extensions – EVEN BETTER!Custom Attributes, Ticket Forms, Subcategories, Check lists, HD Customizations
  5. How awesome is it to have things done for you?Clean up after you, either for house or crimeYour life is easier when tasks are handled by machinesTicket Rules, Ticket Views, KB integration
