In 24 months, after you've deployed the tool and you've got a lot of good validated data, you're probably looking at consolidating and saving your organization ongoing savings that is equatable to how much the tool would cost you on a yearly basis.
The ROI is seen more on the optimization side and the ability to map applications comprehensively rather than direct cost savings.
They have removed the costs associated with on-prem infrastructure, including data center costs, power costs, and physical server costs.
The return on investment is good when implementing for ourselves and for other clients.
Manually, there are huge numbers that come up because these integrated tools help organizations make the right decisions with all the information in one place, while manual methods lack visibility.
The support includes engagement from Technical Advisable Management, who helps us understand and utilize new product features effectively.
Sometimes the challenges with the first level that you actually speak to, they don't understand the problem.
For support, I'll probably give them a seven.
The support is exemplary and deserves a perfect rating.
Obtaining support for maintenance is the current challenge because they don't have a presence in the local market.

It is cloud-based, so it is highly scalable and performs well.
I haven't faced any issues with stability; I've rarely seen any downtime.
ServiceNow is stable enough.
They should implement their ticketing system natively within the application instead of relying on email.
A default framework would provide a base that organizations can quickly adopt and customize, reducing the time and effort spent on adoption.
The challenge with support was probably the response time.
It makes no sense in my opinion, and they should offer the team at the front to help customize the product to fit each company's needs, as every company has different demands and forms of submitting a request that need adjustment over time.
There is a need for bug or error tracking in ServiceNow.
Their customer support could make it a great solution, not just product support but also their relationship with partners and training initiatives in different regions.
It cost me $91,000 a year for 300 applications.
Our usage and costs depend on the number of applications, and as the number of applications grows, so does the cost.
ServiceNow's pricing can be justified if more functionality is required.
ServiceNow does come with a price.
ServiceNow is expensive for all regions.
It ensures cost optimization by identifying duplicate applications and stopping unnecessary application onboarding.
Being able to do the lineage all the way through so that each one of those you can pull them out into their component parts to determine exactly which areas you need to resolve, fix, plan, or build a strategy around.
When you align it or map it to your business capabilities, this is how you identify duplication of technologies in your business.
ServiceNow provides a wide range of functionality, covering all the necessary modules, unlike Jira which is primarily for IT.
Automation capabilities are impressive, bolstered by a vast repository of out-of-the-box connectors and plugins that facilitate integration with various applications worldwide.
The features of ServiceNow that I find most valuable include its ability to easily access ticket details if you know the ticket number, monitor the timeline of when the ticket was created, and see the current status.
