askIT allows you to browse and search the same knowledge articles that IT Help Central uses to resolve customer incidents and service requests. You can also use askIT to submit new requests, view the status of your requests, or add updates to them. Lastly, you can view a list of scheduled maintenance and recent system outages.

askIT is powered by ServiceNow.
