About AO.com
AO.com are the largest online-only white goods and electricals retailer in the UK. They operate in Germany. AO.com have their own logistics company which allows them to deliver on their promises. They own Europe’s most sophisticated fridge recycling plant which allows them to do their bit for the environment.
The Challenge
After using an internal system for many years, AO.com were looking to migrate to a well-known provider after several determining factors:
- A lack of functionality. The internal system was being used throughout the business, however it didn’t work for IT and it took a long time to make configuration changes.
- Cost. The internal system was expensive to run and maintain and they were looking to make some considerable cost.
- Service. It was hard to get anything fixed or changed and needed an external team to help them quickly and efficiently.
When looking for a new ITSM tool, AO.com needed an ITIL-aligned solution which offered a great experience for their end users. They wanted the autonomy to be able to configure all aspects of the system without coding or needing to go back to the vendor.
“We now have complete visibility over operations. This is saving us about 30 hours per week.”

The Solution
After finding HaloITSM on Gartner, AO.com was initially drawn in by the responsiveness of the team and slickness of the application. After a trial period and consultations with our experts, the team felt confident enough to start the migration process throughout their UK and German offices.
“HaloITSM has given us far greater autonomy to be able to deliver the service that we have always wanted to.”
