"The interface of the solution is very user friendly and it is easily accessible via a simple URL. This makes it easier to complete the UI based tasks but using other features require expertise in languages like Java. But along with that, there are limitation in terms of network connectivity testing and administrator faces regular challenges in conducting connectivity tests due to these limitations.""This is a user-friendly solution where scripts can be made with ease. There are also many integration options, including Microsoft products, which gives the product a competitive edge.""The iTerm suite is also crucial for visibility and optimization.""It's probably the best product out there.""The product has a flexible interface for development.""There are a lot of ready to use orchestration custom packs.""The data visualization is good.""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."

Cons
"Sometimes there are tasks that failed without any reason.""The user interface could be improved, and although integration opportunities are good, they could be improved further.""The solution lacks acceptable stability."

More IBM WebSphere BPMS Cons →

"The automatic remediation needs enhancement, particularly integrating ServiceNow with tools like SolarWinds and Logic Monitor. It is functional, but it needs improvement.""Frequent upgrades may negatively impact the performance of instances. Therefore, for now, I don't recommend any additional upgrades.""From my space, the only thing that I can say is the spinning up with Google Cloud Services.""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.""Efficiency of some features could be improved.""We cannot perform GUI automation using the tool.""I would like a user experience module to be added.""There can be gaps in integration."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "In terms of price, this solution is at the higher end of what you'll find."
  • "This is an expensive product, but it is the best in the market considering the features and lack of competitors."
  • "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."
  • "The solution is costly and orchestrations are 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."
  • "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."
  • "It is not very expensive."
