"You can unite data which lives in different sources without moving that data."
"Maintenance is very minimal. With our live production applications, they just don't break, which is great. We love that. There's zero-to-little maintenance required."
"It's extremely easy to use in getting into the IDE and then back down to your applications, and getting from your applications to your pages, and navigating through all your tables. That's very simple and pretty intuitive."
"VINYL works across different data sources. It is very useful to be able to map the data across different data sources and different environments. It is also very easy to develop small applications within a short span of time."
"With the Lite Integration, I didn't to have to disrupt my entire organization to do something. We haven't had to disrupt IT and the business organizations to keep them up and running."
"The workflow feature really has a lot of value because you can create complex workflows in a simple, intuitive way with only a few clicks."
"What I like most about the ServiceNow Now Platform is the flexibility of using JavaScript. I also like that the platform allows custom scripting, server-side scripting, and client-side scripting. Another valuable feature in the ServiceNow Now Platform is the Flow Designer which allows dragging and dropping code, and low code activities."
"ServiceNow can document and produce a historical working tool that deals with projects themselves. The user interface is another strong suit."
"We have seen a big improvement in the experience that we want to create for our end users."
"This is a development platform that provides us with a strong database and a low code environment."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"The simplicity is great."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The calendar has room for improvement, but that's what they're going to be working on next, to make a Gantt chart."
"I would like them to build out more tools for communication, particularly the ability to do a multinode panel via email."
"Right now it's very dependent on having an imagination to understand."
"I sometimes find formatting tricky to get the front end of an app the way I want it."
"Perhaps the UI could be improved."
"Version 2.3 has a good UI but we want a more customizable UI."
"One of the troubles we have sometimes is the amount of data we're processing within the applications. That can really add a lot of "laggy-ness." That's an ongoing struggle we're going to have while we use it. It doesn't happen for all our applications, only some of them that are heavy on the reporting."
"Having been a customer of theirs for a long time, I think the UI needed improvements early on. But, they have done a remarkable job catching up in that regard."
"The UI is not intuitive."
"It is still difficult to build a set of services in ServiceNow. It can be done, but it is one of the more difficult things to do. If we're talking about scalability, we're talking about the ability to actually build that set of services a little easier."
"The UI and mobile UI need to be improved."
"There's always room for improvement, but I think the biggest challenge with ServiceNow is the licensing model. It's not very clear and changes frequently."
"The Robotic Process Automation features are not mature enough. ServiceNow could work toward that because we can leverage RP only from this platform."
"The basic reporting system is rather static."
"The licensing for this solution, with respect to the user, needs to be improved."
"We would like to see AI used to automate some of the functionality in this solution."
