"We find the products seamless integration with Zendesk to be extremely valuable to our business."
"Predictive analysis is a valued feature."
"The feature we found most valuable in OpsRamp is alert generation because whenever there is any kind of spike on any virtual machine, the solution generates alerts based on the thresholds we implemented. We have integrated our ideas and tools with OpsRamp, so alerts are generated, then we notify the customers. That's the main feature we like about OpsRamp because we don't have to monitor each resource. Instead, OpsRamp does the monitoring for us, and it generates the alerts based on the thresholds."
"The most valuable feature of OpsRamp is the creation of the dashboards of the infrastructure for the CPU memory and SQL servers. Additionally, URL monitoring through Selenium scripting and the availability dashboard is useful."
"The most valuable feature of this solution in my experience, is that the available reporting is quite accurate."
"The feature that we have found most useful are the dashboards, which can be built in minutes using this solution, allowing multiple products, thresholds, or any given required metric to be seen in a single area."

"It has been very useful for tracking. It has evolved a lot over time, and there is a single pane of glass where you can track and see everything."
"It is easy to use and simple to learn."
"As a product, ServiceNow IT Operations Management is pretty strong, and it can discover non-IP devices."
"It's easy to set up."
"The Discovery feature is the most valuable. I only use the Discovery and Service Mapping features. I am using the minor subscription called ITOM Visibility, which includes the Discovery and Service Mapping features. It is easy to understand and easy to use. It has a lot of documentation. You can find a lot of help online, which helps me in finding what I need in a rapid way. You can find videos on YouTube channels and a lot of stuff and information in the online community."
"Has service mapping, impact management, metric intelligence and health of analytics."
"The most important features of ServiceNow IT Operations Management are the discovery service mapping and orchestration."
"What's lacking in OpsRamp is process automation, and if there is, I wish there could be more of it, other than just spikes, or it would be better if the alerts can be generated based on different matrices. That option is absent in OpsRamp at the moment, and it would be valuable if that could be provided in the solution, especially if there's any kind of security issue in the VM."
"We have 55 AVDs, and patches might roll out to 32-35 initially, with the rest taking a month or so. OpsRamp can't detect them all directly. Since clients want patches applied as soon as possible, we manually patch those remaining devices."
"The user interface of this product requires some changes as it is not inclusively user-friendly. For example, the performance indicators are color-based , which means that they are confusing for anyone who is color blind."
"OpsRamp could improve the critical alerts. We have been receiving some false alerts when monitoring. For example, the alert shows the site is down, but when we try to do manual access to the URL, it's accessible."
"An area of improvement would be application monitoring."
"I would like to see two things. The first is a self-service portal for the cloud, any cloud deployments, and the second is maturity validation towards ITSM, internalizing OpsRamp TSM. As a result, instead of integrating with more mature tools similar to ServiceNow, people will use OpsRamp."
"Automation is currently quite complex and needs to be improved."
"We would like this solution to be developed into a full CMP tool, so that we are able to use a single product for all of our cloud management needs."

"The initial setup phase was hard and could be made easier."
"ServiceNow could be more prescriptive on how customers can leverage some of the benefits."
"I advise others not to customize a lot while using the solution."
"Regarding ServiceNow, there is room for improvement in terms of customization, particularly in the area of self-customization."
"I would like more manual issues to have automated report-facing options."
"My managers would say that the price is too high. We wanted to also have the visibility version of it, but it's too expensive for us. Going for visibility would have doubled up the price."
