Featured Reviews

Gowtham J - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides valuable integration with other Microsoft tools
The initial setup process involves three trigger points. One is a manual trigger, where users interact with a button or interface element to start the flow. The second is the recurrence trigger, which allows users to schedule automated maintenance at a specific time. Third is a data-driven trigger, where the flow is initiated based on an event in a database, such as creating a new line item in SharePoint database. Once triggered, the flow continues to execute, performing the configured actions and providing the results.
Robert Gonzales - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides better ecosystem control and duplication control but have duplication issue
The initial setup is complex. During deployment, we identify the assets we want to include and the site, among other details. We ensure everything is translated into a common language using a CML-type discussion, allowing consistency across all elements. We aim to standardize everything by using JSON as our common input format. We are deploying existing features, so most of the work is straightforward. We do need some developers, particularly ServiceNow developers, to be involved. However, there isn't a lot of additional work required. We need some licensing from ServiceNow to enable these feature sets, but there aren't many other requirements.
