Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I believe that this is the only product in the market that truly supports offline capabilities in an SAP environment.""I love how they took the MIT Scratch concept and implemented it into the in-app backend. It makes the app creation so much more intuitive and easy to use."

More Pillir Pros →

"It can scale well if you are managing IT assets.""It's great to do statuses or to review tasks.""I don't have to look through a whole bunch of other incidents that aren't relevant to me. It's very useful in that sense.""It provides internal clients with greater transparency about their projects and deliverables.""We used ServiceNow for change management, release management, and event management.""Remote access is most valuable.""It uses a common base of data and allows different types of records to pull from that same base of data.""There are a lot of features within ServiceNow. There are plenty of add-ons that go beyond the typical core helpdesk operations, such as HR facilities, BRM functionality, and various compliance and governance capabilities."

More ServiceNow Pros →

Cons
"While we're not in a place of letting LOB analysts build apps, at some point, we may want to give them a bit more freedom - as long as we can limit their ability to harm the ERP data. I would like to see more tools pertaining to this area.""The modernizer element should convert a higher percentage of the ABAP code, moving it from approximately 75%, closer to 100%."

More Pillir Cons →

"The interface is not user-friendly.""It's missing monitoring capabilities.""Integration capabilities can improve.""From an HR standpoint, if users can have a very integrated onboarding or offboarding process between ServiceNow and Workday, then it can give a very good employee experience.""There is a need to enhance ticket details visibility on the portal, such as displaying SLA information, which currently requires development effort.""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.""Its stability and pricing need improvement.""The solution could improve by being more stable."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is straightforward consumption based on the number of end-users."
  • More Pillir Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "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."
  • "It has a higher cost compared to local/regional solutions."
  • "We know that ServiceNow is not cheap, it's more expensive than other solutions. But we are trying to increase our ability to handle tickets so that the cost per ticket is less."
  • "It's sold as a less expensive solution, but it has to be highly modified. That's where you get into the cost."
  • "ServiceNow pricing is an art, not a science. The deal depends on how commercially savvy you are, which does make it something that is quite difficult to get right. It is most definitely an opportunity area for ServiceNow to improve and have more visibility around pricing of the different products within the platform."
  • "ServiceNow is a leader and its pricing is quite good, quite competitive... Sometimes some plugins are not priced reasonably but, generally, the platform itself, its modules, are priced reasonably."
  • "Isn't pricing always too much? We really do chafe at the ITIL licensing. ITOM is also pretty expensive."
  • "Initially, the licensing model ServiceNow came up with was very good. But now, from a licensing perspective, they are changing their model day by day. It is becoming a bit expensive for customers."
