Find out what your peers are saying about ServiceNow, Atlassian, BMC and others in Help Desk Software."This is a premier product and it has been around for a long time."
"I like that you can do all the things with it. You can patch, and you can run the scheduled tasks. You can remote in, upload files, and download files. You can log onto a computer PowerShell, or command prompt, without having to log into RDP. I also like its ease of use."
"I am impressed with the tool's integration with our mail system."
"The solution is a highly mature product. Because of this, it can stand up to any other product on the market."
"You can put information in or export it out quickly, which is very useful when you have weekly or monthly reports."
"Makes ticket information easy to access."
"We have found the service easy to use, although, we have ended up customising a lot of parameters."
"We used ServiceNow for change management, release management, and event management."
"ServiceNow is a cloud solution. That fact was very important for us, that it is not an on-prem solution, as it reduces our internal cost of support."
"What I like the most is that it's a common service data model and the fact that everything is available on one platform."
"ServiceNow is easy to use."
"It is a very promising product. They have a new release every six months. They're investing quite a lot, and you can do many creative things with the product. If you know how it works, you can have stricter rules in the product."
"What I would like to see is a simplified solution that is packaged better, where you can easily implement or turn on the functionality that you need."
"Its reporting is lousy and bad. It is not as good as it should be. There is too much work involved to get what you want. Most times, you have to call them to customize some stuff. I just don't like that part. They need to work on their reporting. They have a way to go."
"The tool needs to improve its customization of the user interface."
"The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements."
"The installation and deployment of ServiceNow can be a bit challenging. One major issue I've encountered is that ServiceNow doesn't provide the same mobile responsiveness or features that we used to enjoy with other tools. For example, with Splunk, our response times were about five minutes, and we could manage alerts and incidents directly from our mobile devices."
"Once a change request has been created once it's been approved and been submitted, there is no way to go in on that particular change request and submit an additional task."
"Before implementing this solution, you should have the ITSM model in place for chain management requests. That is a prerequisite because you cannot perform tasks without it."
"When it comes to changing some of the features, I would like a little more leeway."
"Licensing costs are very high."
"It's a great platform, but there's still room for improvement. As the solutions stands now, you do need a lot of previous experience to use it. It would be great if they could develop some use case templates. This would be beneficial for a small and medium-sized businesses."
"The user interface for accessing assistance sometimes disconnects."
"The setup was time-consuming and required a lot of internal resources."
