"The best part is the ability to keep records, especially incident records. It's easy to use the tool to store data and monitor it."
"I think the technical support is pretty good. They can be a little bit slow sometimes, but overall I think they're good."
"If it is a high priority, they will respond very quickly. If it is a low priority issue, it might take some time, some three or four days. I would rate the technical support as a 10 out of 10."
"ServiceNow is one of the few easiest platforms you can integrate with products like Ansible to automate your workflows."
"The solution integrates well with other products."
"There are a lot of features within ServiceNow. There are plenty of add-ons that go beyond the typical core helpdesk operations, such as HR facilities, BRM functionality, and various compliance and governance capabilities."
"There are lots of modules around IT service management such as IT business management and human resource management (HRC)."
"Simplicity of Change Manager."
"In financial management, this platform has the infrastructure allowing us to expand the way we want to. For example, it gives you many business rules and budget models that you can use to optimize your workflow. It does not put you in a box. Additionally, integrating this solution with other platforms is extremely easy to do."
"The system shuts down about once a month which is frustrating."
"The setting up process is not quite easy. It's quite difficult."
"ServiceNow's mobile app should be seamless and it is not right now."
"I find ServiceNow to be a little bit clunky. If I need to report an issue they have a number of different options. I can report an issue, I can ask a question, I can make a request and it has varying levels of importance or levels of attention required. I find that what's required to submit is not always clear."
"It should have more artificial intelligence for business and work capabilities. The community is not so active. There must be initiatives to make the community talk more and share more information."
"Licensing costs are very high."
"Like all other IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS subscription cloud providers, ServiceNow is constantly improving by building new capabilities to expand the breadth and depth of its offerings while increasing its activities with partners to build more capabilities."
"Currently, we are finding it a bit difficult to monitor the subscriptions that are being used. The reporting feature related to this can be improved. Its ITOM functionality can be improved. BMC does a better job than ServiceNow in terms of capturing utilization and other such things."
"The utilization of AI in ServiceNow needs enhancement."
"When it comes to changing some of the features, I would like a little more leeway."
