Written by Jack O'Brien | 11:00 AM on February 23, 2024

We're excited to share some fantastic news from the recent Forrester Wave™ report for Q4 2023, a big deal in the tech world that looks at the best of the best in Enterprise Service Management (ESM).

What is ESM? Imagine a tool that helps businesses manage all their tech-related services smoothly, not just for the IT crowd but for everyone in the company. It's about making sure that when you need help, you get it quickly and efficiently. That's what ESM platforms do, and they're crucial for businesses wanting to stay on top of their game. You've probably heard us banging on about Atlassian for traditional IT Service Management, but with the following announcement, you'll now see that it's so much more!

Now, for the big news: Atlassian has been named a Leader in this field!

It means Atlassian is not just playing the game; they're setting the pace, which thrills us as we have a host of Atlassian offerings available.

But why does this matter to you? Here's the scoop:

  • Redefining Service Management Across the Enterprise: this is a pivotal shift towards a more integrated and holistic approach to service management that extends beyond IT to encompass all areas of the business. For the ESM sector, it's a validation of the evolving focus from traditional IT service management (ITSM) to a broader, enterprise-wide service management strategy that aligns with modern business needs.

  • Accelerating the Adoption of ESM Principles Across Industries: Atlassian's recognition catalyses the wider adoption of ESM principles across various industries, demonstrating the benefits of adopting a comprehensive approach to service management. For organisations still on the fence about expanding their ITSM capabilities into broader ESM strategies, Atlassian's success provides a compelling case study of the advantages of such an approach, including enhanced agility, improved service delivery, and a more resilient operational model.
