    Reviews from Real Users

    ServiceNow Now Platform is a solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. Some of its major advantages are that it has JavaScript flexibility, and is simple, stable, and agile.

    YashShah, Sr. Software Developer at a university, writes, "What I like most about the ServiceNow Now Platform is the flexibility of using JavaScript. I also like that the platform allows custom scripting, server-side scripting, and client-side scripting. Another valuable feature in the ServiceNow Now Platform is the Flow Designer which allows dragging and dropping code, and low code activities."

    “The simplicity is great. Based on my experience with other solutions in the market, the most important is the simplicity of implementing all the features that we have in ServiceNow and helping customers to simplify the work process in the daily journeys that they have,” says Bruno P., Architect and delivery manager at Axians.


    Another PeerSpot reviewer, Romy B., IT BRM - Business Operations and Functions at Pernod Ricard, expresses, “[The solution is] a stable, scalable, and agile solution that provides fast deployment, good workflow automation and integration capability, but is held back by the UI.”
