We performed a comparison between Microsoft Power Apps and ServiceNow Now Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Rapid Application Development Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The support is the most valuable feature."
"If you want something that you can use for cellphones, multiple tablets, and things like that, you can use PowerApps for the front end. It gathers all the information, and the information goes somewhere else."
"The UI functionality is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The solution is excellent at figuring how to build an application in three months. It makes it very quick and easy."
"The solution is very good. It's very full. You can do almost anything."
"Flexibility, easy setup, and fairly quick results are valuable features of the product."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft PowerApps is the user interface."
"We particularly like the workflow connectors in the forms, for information introduction purposes."
"ServiceNow can document and produce a historical working tool that deals with projects themselves. The user interface is another strong suit."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The product's most advantageous feature is platform innovation."
"The level of automation within the platform is great."
"Scalability-wise, it is a very good solution."
"The integration feature has simplified our multi-tool ecosystem. The inbuilt integrations significantly improve our solution delivery timelines. Also, standardized adapters and integration adapters reduce failure rates due to compatibility. This boosts productivity and eases maintenance."
"Assignment Group history is really important to me."
"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."
"Installation and integration could be improved."
"Microsoft is not cheap. The pricing could be lowered for their customers."
"In an upcoming release, I would like to see custom APIs, better integration with other solutions, and more connectors available."
"We'd like more features and less to no coding."
"The fact that we couldn't share that with our other organization or outside of the organization, consisting of our colleagues in the joint ventures, was a weakness of the solution."
"Customization is somewhat complicated."
"The stability of this solution could be better."
"You can't add too many filters onto anything you build, otherwise, it will be very slow and it will affect your performance."
"The solution doesn't allow users to create custom tables, which would be a big improvement."
"It's not quick or cheap."
"What I didn't like in the ServiceNow Now Platform is testing, particularly with Visual Studio. It had a bad integration with Visual Studio because you can't compile and run it from there. You have to debug on your own and then find out where the error is through test scripts. The testing component in the ServiceNow Now Platform isn't that great. What I'd like to see in the next version of the ServiceNow Now Platform is an improvement in testing and writing scripts, and if there was a feature to just run it from the modules, then that would be great, instead of finding the error manually and checking where it is."
"There are a few areas of concern when it comes to the product's support team where improvements are required."
"The reporting capabilities need to be improved, otherwise we need to pay for performance analytics."
"ServiceNow Now Platform wants AI embedded in the product to make it more powerful. Generative AI that will be a part of ServiceNow Now Platform is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The Robotic Process Automation features are not mature enough. ServiceNow could work toward that because we can leverage RP only from this platform."
"The UI and mobile UI need to be improved."
