"The most valuable features in ControlUp are endpoint monitoring and the many features that are available."
"When using ControlUp, the core feature that we have found valuable is its UI. It is a valuable tool to view the analysis reactions of a base core Level 2 or Level 1 team so that they can complete the necessary troubleshooting."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of ServiceNow IT Operations Management is the user interface."
"The dashboard maintenance is very good, and the tool doesn't get stuck."
"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."

"This solution be improved by including load throttling tools. For example, I can identify a service where we spend a lot of CPU but I cannot restrict the service from ControlUp. I have to use another tool like AppSense."
"The graphical user interface needs to be improved from version to version."
"Solve is a quick and intuitive tool for quickly mapping data together, however, once you have the view of the data that you like, it is difficult to share this with colleagues."
"The most common complaint that I have heard, at least within our organization, is about reporting. They have their own reporting. It's just that it doesn't yet include everything that you can look at within the application. You can only report on specific metrics or collections."
"We'd like to see the mobile app working again so that we can get alerts 24/7. This is especially useful for the person on call."
"It can be improved by including script-based scheduling."
"Something I would love to see from a partner perspective would be maybe a way to do this in a surface hosting provider."
"ControlUp could improve the integration. Microsoft Azure Virtual Desktop monitoring has better integration."
"If you are new to using the solution, you will find the setup complex."
"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."
"The pricing is high."
"ServiceNow could be more prescriptive on how customers can leverage some of the benefits."
"Even though they call it low code there are a lot of customizations needed, especially from an ITOM standpoint."
"I would like more manual issues to have automated report-facing options."
"Service mapping is pretty limited."
"The pattern part can be improved. Patterns are used in the Discovery feature. Although it is easy to create new patterns and modify the existing ones, it would be better if this solution can have more out-of-the-box patterns. In terms of new features, they can include artificial intelligence, something like machine learning."
