ITSM governance and ITIL best practices built right into your solution.

ITIL best practices are at the core of Octopus — not added as a compliance layer. Your IT service processes are structured, traceable, and aligned with ITIL standards, regardless of your team's current maturity level.

ITIL by design

Structure your IT operations with built-in ITIL

Octopus ITSM comes with ITIL processes, workflows, and terminology already in place. So, your teams apply best practices without extra effort or a steep learning curve.

Preconfigured ITIL processes

Incident management, problem management, change management, service request management — every ITIL practice is structured natively in Octopus ITSM.

Service catalog and service level agreements (SLAs)

Define your service catalog and commitments. Octopus ITSM enforces them automatically — alerts before SLA breaches, automated reporting, and full performance visibility.

Built-in continuous improvement

Dashboards, trend reports, and recurring incident identification support continuous improvement at every level — one of the core principles of ITIL.

Octopus ITSM — ITIL® compliance and audit

Built-in governance and traceability

Every action is logged, timestamped, and traceable. Decisions are documented. Internal audits and compliance reviews become the norm.

Asset and configuration management

A centralized, up-to-date inventory of every IT asset, linked to your tickets and incidents. An ITIL-aligned CMDB that supports real operational decisions.

Compliant, not constrained

ITIL compliance without the complexity that slows teams down

ITIL best practices are built in by default, but fully adaptable to your reality. Octopus aligns with your maturity, context, and priorities — supporting your operations without ever dictating them.

Built for every stage of ITIL maturity

Octopus ITSM meets you where you are — whether you're starting out or running a mature practice — and evolves as your operations grow.

AI Assistant that knows your ITIL practices

The Octopus AI Assistant understands your ITIL processes. Ask it to optimize a workflow, refine an escalation rule, or analyze performance data. It operates within your ITIL framework — never outside it.

Data-driven continuous improvement

ITIL dashboards, trend reports, and recurring problem detection power a structured approach to continuous improvement — the foundation of ITIL philosophy.

No-code: evolve your solution on your own

Update workflows, add fields, and change escalation rules without IT projects or consultants. No delays — just ITIL that adapts as you do.

Preconfigured for your industry

Octopus ITSM templates are developed with organizations like yours — healthcare, municipalities, education, public sector. Start with industry best practices, not a generic baseline.

How ITSM service desks across Quebec and Canada transformed their operations with Octopus

Ready to see what this looks like in your environment?

Discover the most common questions asked before adopting an ITIL-based ITSM solution.

What's the difference between an ITIL tool and an ITIL-aligned ITSM solution?

ITIL is a framework of best practices, not a product certification. An "ITIL-aligned" ITSM solution is simply designed around those practices. Octopus ITSM encompasses this approach whereby your processes follow ITIL standards by design.

Do my teams need to know ITIL to use Octopus?

No, and that's the point. ITIL best practices are built into the configuration, so your teams apply them naturally — no ITIL training required.

Does Octopus ITSM enforce a strict ITIL implementation?

No. ITIL is an adaptive framework, and Octopus ITSM treats it the same way. You adopt ITIL practices progressively, based on your maturity level and operational priorities. ITIL alignment is a guide, not a constraint.

How can Octopus's ITIL-certified consultants help me?

Our ITIL-certified consultants know the framework and the Octopus ITSM solution inside out. They help you structure your ITSM processes, adapt ITIL practices to your reality, and evolve those practices over time.

Can an ITIL-aligned solution help us comply with audit requirements?

Yes. The full traceability built into Octopus ITSM — timestamped activity logs, documented decisions, exportable reports — makes audit preparation significantly easier.
