Every IT team faces recurring issues that disrupt productivity, consume resources, and can even impact client satisfaction. The Problem Management feature in GLPI ticketing software helps businesses manage and resolve these recurring issues more effectively, minimizing downtime and enhancing service quality. By identifying the root causes of incidents and implementing long-term solutions, GLPI’s Problem Management module ensures a more proactive and strategic approach to IT support.

What is Problem Management in GLPI?
Problem Management in GLPI is a systematic process designed to prevent incidents before they occur and resolve underlying issues that cause repeated disruptions. Unlike incident management, which focuses on immediate responses, problem management aims for long-term resolution by analyzing patterns and implementing preventive measures.

Key Benefits of GLPI’s Problem Management Feature
With GLPI’s Problem Management tools, businesses can take a more structured approach to address recurring issues and enhance IT reliability:

  • Root Cause Analysis: GLPI provides tools for in-depth analysis, allowing IT teams to identify and document the root causes of recurring issues.
  • Problem Lifecycle Tracking: Track the lifecycle of each problem from detection to resolution, including documenting symptoms, identifying solutions, and managing the implementation of fixes.
  • Knowledge Base Integration: Link problem records with Knowledge Base articles, allowing support teams to use documented solutions or troubleshoot guides when dealing with related incidents.
  • Preventive Actions: Identify potential areas of improvement to prevent similar incidents in the future, making Problem Management not only reactive but also preventive.
  • Detailed Reporting: Generate reports on problem frequency, impact, and resolution effectiveness, providing valuable insights for continuous improvement in IT service delivery.

By using GLPI’s Problem Management module, businesses can reduce the frequency and impact of IT issues, improving operational efficiency and customer satisfaction. Instead of repeatedly addressing the same problems, your IT team can focus on delivering strategic solutions that enhance the overall IT environment.
