ManageEngine, a division of Zoho Corp., announced that ServiceDesk Plus, its flagship AI-driven unified service management platform, has achieved ITIL-certification for 14 key ITSM practices, awarded by PeopleCert, a premier global training and certification provider.
The certification and inclusion of ManageEngine as a Silver-tier member in PeopleCert's ATV program validates ManageEngine's efforts towards building an ITSM platform aligned with industry-recognized best practices.
PeopleCert's ITIL-ATV Program
ITIL continues to be the most widely recognized ITSM best practice standard globally, guiding organizations focused on streamlining their service delivery workflows. PeopleCert's ATV program verifies the ITIL alignment of IT service management vendors by undertaking a comprehensive assessment of the tool's functionality and the ITIL proficiency of staff engaged in functions like development, sales and implementation on the vendor's side.
ManageEngine's position in the ATV program signifies the organization's proficiency in the ITSM domain and its expertise in building a service management platform that is closely aligned with ITIL. This empowers customers to design and implement industry-recommended best practice workflows right out of the box on the ServiceDesk Plus platform.
Dmitry Isaychenko, portfolio director at PeopleCert, added, "Businesses trust ITIL for success. For them, ITIL is not just a brand but a source of proven best practices. Claims of ITIL adherence raise their expectations regarding the quality of implementations. This is why PeopleCert launched the ATV accreditation program. Today, we are delighted to welcome ManageEngine as an ITIL-accredited tool vendor. Together, we can help customers make more informed decisions when selecting ITSM tools and planning long-term investments in their implementations.”

Currently, ManageEngine has been onboarded as a Silver-level member with plans to move up the tiers by certifying more ManageEngine staff in the coming year.
