Cons
"I'd like the solution to support clouds beyond AWS.""The tenancy must be free for all metrics.""For EC2 instances, we need to install the AWS CloudWatch agent to get the memory metric because we don't have a by-default memory utilization graph on cost optimization.""Maybe adding more security rules would be great."

"If you are new to using the solution, you will find the setup complex.""The most complaints we have received from our clients are the solution's discovery aspect. I've heard a few concerns from the customers where we have to integrate with a third-party tool to make a full-fledged discovery along with ServiceNow. ServiceNow alone does not do the total capacity of the discovery. The discovery portion of ServiceNow IT Operations Management is not in-depth as what the customers are looking for. The information that it gathers from the assets is a little more limited than what other tools provide.""ServiceNow IT Operations Management could be improved by providing more user customization options.""The pricing is high.""It should have better integrations with other solutions.""Even though they call it low code there are a lot of customizations needed, especially from an ITOM standpoint.""I advise others not to customize a lot while using the solution.""The setup and deployment could be simplified, and the pricing could improve."
