ChangeGate
What it is
ChangeGate is a web-based change governance system for tracking business, operational and technical changes through request, impact review, approval, planning, execution and closure. Structured requests can assign RACI ownership and go to an approval board for voting, with decisions recorded. Risk scoring uses a 5×5 scale, and a Lite CMDB connects changes to systems, sites, equipment and services. Teams can add test and rollback plans, use blackout and freeze calendars, or route urgent work through an emergency path. Hypercare monitoring and post-implementation reviews record outcomes and benefits. ChangeGate can assemble evidence packs with approvals, reasons, risk assessments, tests, outcomes and benefits. Dashboards are available for executives, operations and individual users, showing items such as risk, deadlines and actions. The maker says the product supports change-management expectations for SOC 2 CC8.1, ISO 27001 A.8.32 and TISAX, without guaranteeing audit results. Pricing is on request. The maker says it does not handle incidents, service desks or asset inventories, and is not designed for sprint planning, task assignment or milestone tracking.
For and against
For
- Approval board voting with a recorded decision trail
- 5×5 risk scoring and linked systems, sites, equipment, and services

The verdict
ChangeGate brings change requests, approvals, risk context and post-change review into one workflow. Its stated boundaries make it a focused governance tool rather than a general service or project management system.
Who it suits
It suits teams managing frequent, scrutinized changes, including multi-site operations and regulated or customer-controlled environments. Teams seeking incident, service desk or asset inventory management should note those are outside its stated scope.
