Low cost of ownership - high ROI
With a fast install time, easy learning curve and many advanced cost-saving features, Rev-Trac provides an easily demonstrable return on investment.
Because Rev-Trac lives in SAP, there are no hidden extras and no additional network, security, disaster recovery plan, DBA or desktop rollout requirements.
Rev-Trac's place in the change management picture
Rev-Trac is installed in all systems within your SAP landscape and manages all changes as that landscape evolves. It does not replace the change management or help desk system you now use to manage changes across your whole organization.
System requirements
Rev-Trac 5 is compatible with all SAP solution-based systems from SAP 4.0 onwards.
Installation
Most sites install Rev-Trac, load system histories and begin full system monitoring in one day. Implementing the actual Rev-Trac change management process can take one to two weeks, as the organization finalizes decisions regarding workflow, approvers, etc. Training time is typically one to two hours in the classroom, or 30 minutes of training one-to-one.
