Mobile solutions are the pillar of digital transformation, but half of companies in a recent report said they struggle to even find time to test their applications. This and many other challenges to master the quality and end user value of mobile applications are frontiers to be conquered.

Join us on our webinar where we will show how businesses can focus on consistently improving the user experience of their mobile channels using Micro Focus application delivery management.

The traditional service desk is manual and reactive, primarily addressing large volumes of tickets and user requests. A 2017 Help Desk Institute survey identified that 55% of organizations saw an increase in ticket volumes. The cost of resolving those issues also increased—with the cost per ticket rising from $18 in 2016 to $25 in 2017.
In this webinar, we will demonstrate why machine learning and built in analytics are not just a nice to have add on feature, but are essential native components of any modern Service Management solution.

This webinar will cover:
1.The value of machine learning in accelerating the ticketing process.
2.How to empower Problem Management with analytic capabilities that can help agents identify patterns across structured and unstructured data sources.
3.How to take key performance indicator (KPI) goals and measurements to the next level by providing actionable insights to drive process improvement.

The new Micro Focus File Governance Suite makes network data administration easier by not only letting you know what you’re storing and who has access to it, but lets you in turn, establish policies that automatically clean up, move, archive, and delete, and a variety of other management actions. Additionally, the File Governance Suite offers data protection capabilities that protect High-Value Targets on your network from the potentially catastrophic effects of a ransomware attack.

This webinar will show you some of the more notable features and capabilities of the File Governance Suite and how you can deploy the suite utilizing your current network infrastructure.

Big Data is an exciting concept and emerging set of technologies that hold seemingly unlimited promise to enable organisational transformation, gain new analytic insights and operational efficiencies. It is a unique architecture that enables low-cost, high-speed, parallel processing of huge data sets of structured and unstructured data. When used in an enterprise environment, however, the importance of data security becomes paramount. Organizations must protect sensitive customer, partner and internal information from an increasing array of advanced threats and risks, and must adhere to a complex set of privacy laws and compliance requirements.

These challenges often prevent organisations from maximising the value of their data. That’s why we’re running a new webinar series designed to offer telecoms a wealth of best practice advice to

•Unlock the power of big data
•Monitise data held
•Securely migrate into hybrid environment

Voltage experts Anna Russell and Reiner Kappenberger will be on hand to guide you through how Micro Focus has helped the world’s leading Telcos, using real world, big business scenarios and to help you gain an advantage.
