Plus, unlike traditional managed service providers who often focus solely on infrastructure support, application management dives deeper. Instead it encompasses the needs of the application and its users, bridging the gap between technical expertise and user requirements.
One of the key distinctions lies in its holistic approach. While vendor support addresses issues related to application defects or functionalities, application management extends further. It includes everything from user support to performance optimization and system integrations.
