We performed a comparison between Jitterbit Vinyl 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 feature that I find most valuable with Zudy VINYL is how flexible it is. There are so many ways that you can connect data to it and there are so many features that are out-of-the-box that make the product very flexible and easy and easy to work with. It's got a great user interface which makes it a nice looking product that our employees are able to engage with quickly."
"App development, database storage, and 3rd party app integrations are great."
"You can unite data which lives in different sources without moving that data."
"It allows us higher visibility into our data, which allows us to data-check faster, and validate data that we had not been able to validate, prior."
"It's like breaking apart coding and development into an ultra-configuration tool... It really is flexible."
"The product has reduced the time that it takes us to produce apps."
"VINYL has given us the ability to really improve the speed with which we deploy releases and respond to the good ideas that our people have."
"The Lite Integration is really the key thing. You're able to attach the Vinyl software to a variety of different systems very easily and pull data together in a way that is really difficult to do using traditional technology... Also, the fact that it's a no-code platform also makes it easier for people to understand and deal with internally, to continue to build applications and modify existing applications."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"It can integrate anywhere, and you can make any kind of workflow."
"This is a development platform that provides us with a strong database and a low code environment."
"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."
"Learning materials, such as online courses, are readily available."
"The solution provides a single platform for multiple systems and software to operate from. We have found the solution to be stable The initial setup and deployment of the solution was very easy. The technical support team are very helpful, we contact them whenever we are unable to fix an issue."
"It's very intuitive and easy to use. The flexibility and user-friendliness of ServiceNow are key reasons it's such a popular cloud solution."
"We have seen a big improvement in the experience that we want to create for our end users."
"The calendar has room for improvement, but that's what they're going to be working on next, to make a Gantt chart."
"When you are trying to delete certain columns or delete or drop tables, it will throw an error and it will force you to hunt down every location where those things are being referenced. You have to delete them from the very end and work your way backward... It would be easier, when you're deleting that table, if it would concatenate all the way down."
"The features that I'd like to see in VINYL next would be the ability to have more control over, or have a rule-based control over column headings and column labels."
"When designing the user interface, there are many built-in features; however, Vinyl could use some more extensive design elements that are used in marketing, such as Canva or Web design tools. These would allow for more extensive design elements to be added more easily."
"Some new features I think I'd like to see is visibility into running jobs so that we can see what the status is, or it's not stuck in its process and doing its thing, or how much longer it's going to take. I'd also like to see a native calendaring function so we can put calendars into our apps with maybe even recurring tasks or appointments and that sort of thing. We'd also like to see multi-select lists. The users being able to pick multiple things to filter on and get a list and be able to export that list."
"There are some acknowledged technical limitations. I was looking to do some metadata manipulation, which is very atypical. Zudy said that they will work on building me a workaround. If there is a weakness, that would be it."
"One of the troubles we have sometimes is the amount of data we're processing within the applications. That can really add a lot of "laggy-ness." That's an ongoing struggle we're going to have while we use it. It doesn't happen for all our applications, only some of them that are heavy on the reporting."
"Version 2.3 has a good UI but we want a more customizable UI."
"The pricing model is complex and needs to be both lowered and simplified."
"The reporting capabilities need to be improved, otherwise we need to pay for performance analytics."
"Simplifying the user interface for both users and administrators is key. It is not very intuitive."
"This platform is used more by large companies because it is a little bit expensive."
"The solution is very expensive."
"ServiceNow is not open source, so there is a license you must pay. As for how much it costs, what I have observed is that it often depends on your subscriptions. Suppose that you go with some subscriptions such as IDSM or any type of package like it, then the license cost will be impacted accordingly. Similarly, the cost is also adjusted based on your headcount of how many users will be using it."
"They should reduce the solution's cost and make it more affordable for buyers."
"The cost has room for improvement. It is currently expensive."
