Responsive technical support and an easy initial setup but needs better asset management

We found the initial setup to be surprisingly straightforward. It's not overly complex and difficult, and the ease of setup is a great selling point. We started to do it on our own as it was so straightforward. There is a beginner's guide on their website which you can use. It's a very good toolbox and very useful. Basically, all you need to do is start up your virtual machine inside or outside, put in some passwords, and run one or two commands as directed and it's up and ready to go. The only thing that may take a while is the configuration process. Otherwise, the deployment is relatively fast. In about two weeks it's completely done. We have two or three people involved in the maintenance aspect of the product

A stable and scalable solution that has excellent features and is useful for collecting data and building KPIs

As much as possible, we use the out-of-the-box features. We do very few customizations. We follow the schedule to refresh the versions when they come up. As an end-user, I am not happy with the scalability. We have to wait a long time to buy more capacity. It is not an issue with the tool. Our team must manage it better. ServiceNow is a powerful tool. As long as we have enough users, it works. Overall, I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The documentation for beginners is easily available online and very useful."

"It is a very promising product. They have a new release every six months. They're investing quite a lot, and you can do many creative things with the product. If you know how it works, you can have stricter rules in the product."

"It's actually easy to understand."

"It has an excellent capability to integrate different access points."

"It's a very low-code platform, and it's simple. The user experience is also really good."

"It actually has quite a wide list of modules and processes. Currently, we are implementing project management and Scaled Agile Framework for one of our customers."

"The most recent addition of SAM Premium is a game changer for many organizations."

"Primarily, we use it for incident management and change across the landscape. It is the virtual repository for our incident management processes. It gives us visibility about what's happening from the change management perspective across our CABs, including our enterprise CABs."

"ServiceNow is a very powerful tool that can perform a lot of different functions."

Cons

"We have noticed that sometimes we have a delay in action on technical support issues due to time differences."

"Their cloud management is also not that great compared to other products."

"I do not like the user interface."

"The customization that we are doing for the needs of our organization are difficult to do and could be improved."

"The solution should offer better security when it comes to storing data."

"It's a great platform, but there's still room for improvement. As the solutions stands now, you do need a lot of previous experience to use it. It would be great if they could develop some use case templates. This would be beneficial for a small and medium-sized businesses."

"Its stability and pricing need improvement."

"I find the way you need to attach things like screenshots and stuff is a bit gimmicky. I'm a casual user. I'll use it once every two months and only when I have an incident that I need to report. You don't get a lot of experience with it when you're just using it once in a while like that. Therefore, it needs to be more intuitive so that you don't have to re-learn how to do simple tasks as the way to do certain things just isn't obvious."

"The Software Asset Management feature can be improved. We would like to see more features for the Software Asset Management functionality. Its price can also be better. It is currently more expensive than other solutions."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available

"The price could be a little lower for the solution. Many of my customers have issues with the licensing process, they have to make it easier and straightforward."

"Initially, the licensing model ServiceNow came up with was very good. But now, from a licensing perspective, they are changing their model day by day. It is becoming a bit expensive for customers."

"ServiceNow tends to be a little bit more expensive as compared to BMC Helix ITSM."

"$230 per user."

"This is a pretty expensive product, so the licensing could be better."

"Getting the solution up and running is expensive."

"The pricing is on the high side, but if you look at the stability and option to work, it's kind of justified."

"The platform offers a free trial, by providing a free developer instance once you sign up."
