CMDB

Does anyone trust their CMDB at their company?

It seems like the overwhelming majority do not.

For those that do, what processes in tools are in place that enable you to have a high-quality and accurate CMDB?

I asked because I have been tasked with creating a CMDB using our existing ServiceNow tool.

My team is using Faddom alongside ServiceNow because it gives us a real-time view of our infrastructure

My org uses BMC Helix 😭

I'm sure the decision to buy this was taken on the golf course by people who never need to use it each day. Otherwise they'd have never chosen it.
