Replacement for Help The Help Desk (HTHD)

Hi,

With Help the Help Desk being depreciated in Orlando, has anyone seen any information on what may replace it (apart from getting Discovery)?

I've seen on another post a mention that it "will soon be replaced with a new technology (in) coming releases." but can't seem to find any more information online about what the replacement will be - I'm assuming it will be introduced from Quebec onwards.

Thanks.

Andy,

If you look in the release notes for Paris you will see this little tidbit:

Help The Help Desk
com.snc.help_the_help_desk

Maintenance mode only. Planned for deprecation in Quebec. This will be replaced by Agent Client Collector.

Essentially ServiceNow has an agent coming out that they talked about a tiny bit in the Paris release notes that I think an official replacement will be found in Quebec. I haven't seen the official replacement but I know a bit about the agent client collector and it's exciting times ahead :). Sorry I don't have any additional information on the specific replacement but I suspect it will be the agent itself.

It looks like you need ITOM license for the Agent Client Collector, is this true?  Help the Help Desk was included in the platform
