Is anyone working on Assets?

Question

Like so many others I am looking towards the Cloud and one thing that is stopping that thought is the fact that Assets on Cloud is hopelessly underdeveloped compared to its Data Center version.

Looking at the roadmap it does not look like there is any focus on Assets, at least not publicly?

So, is anyone working on Assets and what are the future plans for the missing integrations and data types that exist in Data Center for starters?

I watched the session and I did not see anything mentioning these things except for a brief point in the road map for integrations coming....later.

Nothing is shown in the JSM roadmap either

Perhaps there was something in the Q&A that I missed?

The High Velocity focused on the JSM part, so even the Demo was focused on using Assets in JSM and not on how to actually work with Assets (my opinion).

Hi @__ Jimi Wikman

Did you watch the High Velocity Session from January?  The included the roadmap here and did a Q&A.

Sure :)

The focus in Data Center has been on Audit using the JIra Configuration integration for example and that does not exist on Cloud. In fact almost no integrations exist on cloud and several data types are missing.

You can not add icons to specific schemes, but must have everything in Global (messy), there is no automation, no file management and so on.

The roadmap only have two activities listed. One for improved UI and one for managing the Assets Custom field.

So either I am missing something, or Assets is not presented as very active publicly and the gap between Data Center and Cloud seem to become larger and not smaller?
