"Remote access and detailed monitoring help us support our equipment."
"It's definitely improved the help-desk servicing, et cetera."
"The database is great. It's a nicely ordered database."
"We use monitors to keep track of our machines. We use a pretty good portion of information from Automate."
"The implementation is nice and easy."
"It's a very good IT tool for a company that provides IT services. It is very helpful for technicians to work with the tool to see all of the customers in one place and then manage all of the computers in one place."
"The most value we get from this solution is that everything is on a patch cycle."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the ease of use and the sensor for ticketing systems."
"We consider the integration capabilities of the solution with other tools to be a valuable feature."
"Identifies better ways to license software or eliminate unused software to save money."
"It gave us professionalized, faster incident turn around times. Improved quality of information shared with our customers. Over time we build an extensive knowledge base that assists in both self-service as in services provided by the servicedesk when handling incidents."
"It's a straightforward and effective approach that minimizes the need for extensive explanations."
"There are many expansions available."
"The Idea Portal and the PPM platform are most valuable. Their out-of-the-box dashboards and reporting are fantastic. I use them almost on a weekly basis. I have developed a couple of PMO dashboards for reporting. It is user-friendly. Everything is done through a navigation bar, and it makes things a lot easier that way."
"The solution has very good automation tools."
"The menu doesn't always load properly."
"Technical support was helpful."
"Their support needs to be better."
"The wait time for a support ticket to be addressed needs to be reduced. They take a couple of days to get back. It is a little frustrating when we have to wait for a couple of days. A lot of times, the issue is critical for us. If we're reaching out to their support team and submitting a ticket, it is because we need it handled quickly."
"Patching and reporting need improvements, especially reporting. The reporting engine is quite outdated, so you end up having to use your own dashboard."
"The fixed client for Automate is slow. The web client is not very intuitive."
"The project management needs improvement and there's a section of the product called configuration that also needs to be improved."
"They always change the GUI to some dumb-down version of tiles which are more "user-friendly", but slows my team down in the end."
"ServiceNow doesn't cater to the Middle Eastern market."
"It became kind of complex to set it up without a general lack of knowledge of the particular feature-function capabilities. Features and capabilities could have been explained better to the end-users."
"There should be fewer clicks and faster integrations between solutions."
"There are Virtual Task Boards in the tool in the latest releases. There are many of them in the Scaled Agile Framework. There is some room there for improvement. It's really quite promising but, at the same time, it could be improved and I believe it will be improved soon."
"I do not like the user interface."
"The major area for improvement for our needs would be monitoring the metrics of the times to acknowledge and resolve issues and escalations."
"We do a lot of relatively advanced stuff for the size that we are, but ServiceNow itself is so big and to some extent, there is a significant amount of complexity that you have, a big learning curve I would say, in order to really get on board."
"It's a little expensive compared to other tools."
