Provides limited scalability, and systems do not synchronize properly
I use the platform to track IT assets, including who they belong to and their current status I do not find the product beneficial. It has ongoing issues and does not meet my expectations. The two systems within Asset Manager do not synchronize properly. Queries fail to retrieve the correct…
Nikhil Gohil - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables effective incident management and seamless workflow automation with valuable mobile accessibility
I haven't thought deeply about improvements for ServiceNow or what might be missing right now. There are so many modules and features in ServiceNow that I haven't explored them all, so it's hard to say what might be missing or should be improved. I suggest making the cost more affordable for smaller companies.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is easy to setup."
"The product's stability in terms of uptime is generally good; it is always operational."
"The solution is stable, scalable and easy to use."
"I think the technical support is pretty good. They can be a little bit slow sometimes, but overall I think they're good."
"The impact of ServiceNow's self-service portal on IT staff dependency levels has shown a dramatic improvement."
"I like the ease of use."
"Good stable and scalable solution."
"ServiceNow is one of the few easiest platforms you can integrate with products like Ansible to automate your workflows."
"The most impactful feature in our day-to-day operations is the ticket status, which provides crucial visibility into the progress of each resource or incident."
"The solution is easy to use, simple to make queries, flexible to configure, integrates well, and supports all of our companies needs."
 

Cons

"The synchronization between the ITAM and Neurons should be restored."
"Queries fail to retrieve the correct information, and the discovery tool does not accurately reflect the details of devices."
"System deployment and automation capabilities could be within the platform, similar to competitors."
"The biggest complaint I have is that the ServiceNow search engine is not very robust."
"There are Virtual Task Boards in the tool in the latest releases. There are many of them in the Scaled Agile Framework. There is some room there for improvement. It's really quite promising but, at the same time, it could be improved and I believe it will be improved soon."
"It became kind of complex to set it up without a general lack of knowledge of the particular feature-function capabilities. Features and capabilities could have been explained better to the end-users."
"Complexities in the organization made the initial deployment complex."
"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."
"Making a mobile version would be helpful."
"I have enjoyed all the features. There is not any feature that I have missed or didn't have."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is reasonably priced."
"It's sold as a less expensive solution, but it has to be highly modified. That's where you get into the cost."
"I have found the solution very expensive."
"Certainly, from a product-platform perspective, the price is not too bad."
"The price is okay for us. It's reasonable."
"The mandatory minimum is US$ 20,000 for licensing."
"The platform offers a free trial, by providing a free developer instance once you sign up."
"The pricing is reasonable and affordable, making it suitable for businesses ranging from small to large scale."
"The first impact for the customer is that it is expensive, but do not forget that it is a solution that includes infrastructure; a single cost, easy to justify."
