Paparao Nadipineni - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables budget review efficiency with open source advantages and workflow orchestration
Definitely, right now, it is purely open source, and we don't have much community support. If they add a few more capabilities like AIML and DocGen AI, these features would be good. Reporting capabilities can be improved more, and community support should be increased. Otherwise, people cannot onboard that particular technology easily.
ShaheenKapery - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to integrate, stable solution and incredibly good customer service
It is a long setup. It was customized to our company's requirements. Bearing in mind that there is not just an IT team. You've got an IT team consisting of end-users, consulting, and user support sides. Install support, ServiceNow support, application support, and so on. What ServiceNow does is it's really good at getting the tickets to the right person. That's the power of it. There's no issue with it. But you need to set that up in advance. You need to know the structure and who is responsible for each task. The initial setup does take a long time, and the organization might face some issues. But once you've got that resolved, it's amazing.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I find Bizagi so user friendly. I also think that its modeling abilities are great and it's easy to teach them to new users."
"The user interface is very good, making it easy for business people to understand."
"Agility, reverse engineering, customized portal web, help desk and user guides, easy deployment, simple to modify."
"The most valuable feature is the organizational modeling capability."
"The initial setup is super simple."
"The visualizations and attachments provided by the product are valuable."
"The tool helps to improve business processes and have better KPIs. Also, it is easy to use. Our developers find it easy to learn."
"Bizagi is really great for beginners because it's user-friendly and you can learn in it quickly, whereas other similar software are harder."
"The product has a flexible interface for development."
"Orchestration is commonly utilized by major corporations. The process of linking methods in ServiceNow, known as the RTS chain to parent methods, is executed seamlessly and efficiently. It's quite impressive and significant in its impact."
"Provisioning of new systems is among the most impactful features for automating complex workflows with ServiceNow Orchestration."
"The iTerm suite is also crucial for visibility and optimization."
"The data visualization is good."
"There are a lot of ready to use orchestration custom packs."
"Employee onboarding, de-boarding, and other service-provision features make the process easier and it saves us a lot of time."
"It is a very stable product, highly affordable."
 

Cons

"They should improve the migration process between major versions, from version 9 to 10, we had to redo our implementation."
"The product used to have a simulation feature, which I had used quite often. However, it's since been discontinued. It might have originally been a paid feature. It would be nice if they could bring it back and offer it for free."
"Also, the tool sometimes feels not so mature when we find random deploy errors from testing to production environment."
"I'm not really satisfied with the reporting aspect."
"The gateway through which it connects with other vendors, specifically RPA vendors, is one aspect that could be improved."
"The on-premise software has some bugs."
"It needs an easier setup for the Bizagi Engine."
"If they add a few more capabilities like AIML and DocGen AI, these features would be good."
"There is still room for more integrations. Or, it would be nice to bundle multiple products together rather than selling everything as a model as that turns out to be a bit costly."
"Frequent upgrades may negatively impact the performance of instances. Therefore, for now, I don't recommend any additional upgrades."
"There can be gaps in integration."
"The flow rate for releases and updates is very, very slow and does not meet customers' objectives for scalability."
"The deployment requires awareness among the project staff."
"The automatic remediation needs enhancement, particularly integrating ServiceNow with tools like SolarWinds and Logic Monitor. It is functional, but it needs improvement."
"Efficiency of some features could be improved."
"From my space, the only thing that I can say is the spinning up with Google Cloud Services."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is good value for money."
"Its price is reasonable."
"When we were working with the on-premises solution, the licenses were a little bit expensive because we had to buy one by one a package of a hundred licenses, whereas now, we are working with the cloud solution, and it has a different cost. It's a different business model because we pay the license for the developers, but the cost is by the environment, and we have unlimited licenses. The business model is different now, but the benefit ratio is good."
"The product must improve its cost."
"We didn't use the licensed versions where you could exactly go into automatization. However, we looked at the pricing in the beginning, and the only thing that I remember is that it was too expensive for the things we were using because our clients would also have to license the product. One client said that it was too expensive for the benefit they get out of it."
"I'm trying the free unlimited version with unlimited use. But you have to pay to add some features."
"I think that its price is reasonable."
"It has a very high price. Many clients complain about the price for maintaining the application on Bizagi."
"The solution is costly and orchestrations are very expensive."
"Pricing is custom to every customer."
"This is an expensive product, but it is the best in the market considering the features and lack of competitors."
"The cost of the solution is based on the number of plugins, conductors and integrations used and is charged annually. The licensing cause has been increasing gradually which makes it difficult to access. Initially offer free features but over the time the charges rise which make it an expensive solution with limited features. Along with that, the integration issues persist and require additional middle where and internet connectivity for effective usage."
"In terms of price, this solution is at the higher end of what you'll find."
"It is not very expensive."
"It is quite expensive because we've had some customers come back and say it's quite pricey because in order for them to go ahead with Orchestration, they must have already been paying for Discovery, service mapping, and a few other things."
"ServiceNow doesn't give a clear cost indication. They have different contracts with different organizations and it's all about negotiation, so you don't know how they are doing at the cost level."
