Night and Day Compared to Ivanti and other HEAT Consultants & Developers
"Buying Ivanti HEAT out of the box is and expecting it to be anywhere near serviceable for your purposes is wishful thinking. There is a huge amount of customisation required, some of it highly technical. Either be prepared to throw resource at the training academies and go through the steep learning curve, or look to consult with a business which is as experienced as Gregor and a19 Consulting. They took the pain out of the process.
Compared to Ivanti consultation directly, it has been night and day. Gregor and a19 Consulting owns both the technical solution and the implementation. Coming from a business where we have a small, inexperienced team of Ivanti Admins having an experienced, knowledgeable, practical hand supporting us is invaluable.
a19 Consulting makes a strong case for a direct engagement model, 1-2-1 for the consultants to the product owner in the business. Internally there are some of the team who are keen to have more direct access with the consultant but there is a strong argument to keep the engagement focused.
Positive engagement, improved Ivanti implementation resulting in happy users and happy IT staff. Project team looking better as a result. Could you ask for more?"

Ivanti HEAT ITSM To The Next Level
“EXP had completed an Implementation of the Ivanti Service Manager and Asset Manager toolset. The implementation team from Kifinti Solutions were helpful in getting it up and running, but we needed someone that could take EXP to the next level and configure the tool so we could utilize all of its potential. As EXP was also in a transition period where our processes and workflows were being redefined, Gregor and a19 Consulting Professional Services were able to work with us to align our working processes with the workflows within the Ivanti Service Manager tool, utilizing ITSM Best Practices and latest solutions.”

Five stars for Ivanti HEAT Experience, Technical Knowledge, and Consultative Approach.
We are very confident in Gregor and a19 Consulting to assist in the delivery of required changes and their industry expertise in advising of best practices and Ivanti HEAT configuration setups to follow.”

Gregor has a wealth of knowledge on Ivanti Neurons for ITSM and is highly structured in his approach. Our migration to a new Ivanti instance went smoothly as a direct result of Gregor's input. In working with Gregor, I was able to improve some of my own skills just from observing his approach that I can now apply working on other projects in our business.
