12.2 Enhancements

This section contains information about enhancements in version 12.2 of the BMC Client Management product.

Extended integration with BMC Remedyforce

An IT Asset Manager should be able to use Remedyforce and BMC Client Management to manage the complete lifecycle of all IT assets. BCM has an opportunity to become a discovery engine for Remedyforce. The implemented solution is completely cloud based, enabled and integrated out of the box. In fact, Remedyforce customers will not even know that BMC Client Management is in use until they get into some of the more complex use cases.

We're entertaining the notion of providing a certain amount of functionality for free, and anything advanced would require a purchase. For more information, see BMC Remedyforce documentation .
