Featured Reviews

Mayur Patil - PeerSpot reviewer
Assistant Manager at Wipro Limited
Has supported day-to-day operations through reporting, ticketing, and automation features
I am still using ServiceNow Now Platform. I have worked with Qualys in one of my customers, but not much. I wanted to know whether there is any module of Rubrik in ServiceNow Now Platform. I am an end user and do not work with the solution provided for ServiceNow Now Platform separately. I work with ServiceNow Now Platform. I have not worked with app development capabilities. Regarding the integration capability of ServiceNow Now Platform, I can say it is compatible with most of the technologies for my connectivity with other systems. I cannot comment on analytics insights, as I have not worked on it, so I cannot say it improved my service efficiency. I do not remember if I have worked with something different for the same purpose. My overall rating for this review is eight out of ten.
Combs Peterson - PeerSpot reviewer
Technical Lead at Astek
Automated email workflows have improved appointment delivery accuracy and boosted customer satisfaction
In my opinion, the best features SS&C Blue Prism offers are that it is very effective. It offers a free trial and premium integration. It also offers workflow creation which is simple and easy. The flow structure is easy to read and can be directly used in presentations to customers and management. Additionally, it includes auto-reply to emails tailored to each email so that it does not feel robotic or generalized. Storing information from emails in a standardized data set is another great feature. The user interface is very intuitive and user-friendly. The user interface of SS&C Blue Prism is very intuitive and user-friendly, making it very easy to use all the features. It can be used by any kind of tech-savvy personnel. SS&C Blue Prism has positively impacted our organization as we were able to save at least $10,000 USD per quarter by improving communication to optimize supply chain operations. It also saves two manpower per year by automating email communication.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are the ease of use, stability, and the ability to change or upgrade seamlessly."
"The solution is very comprehensive."
"The integration with other tools is pretty good."
"The tool is generally easy to use, making it a very user-friendly product."
"The product's most advantageous feature is platform innovation."
"We work on it directly to send out tickets. It enables us to work seamlessly, we don't need to send them out manually. We can create a ticket and assign it in the system."
"The most valuable features are the ease of use, stability, and the ability to change or upgrade seamlessly."
"At this point, over and above what ServiceNow actually is, the key is that it's really nothing but a web service. Whether it's a form or anything, the best part is that you can easily leverage anything of ServiceNow for any application anywhere just by calling the REST endpoints and handling the request messages."
"I find the design studio, where I can build the automation, and the control room feature, which allows me to run and monitor the automation, to be the most useful."
"Some important features include the language capabilities, which are crucial since RPA has to read the documents provided by the customer."
"The key feature of SS&C that I find valuable is the general workflow visibility."
"We have a lot of customer requests on a daily basis for different use cases, and we have different processes for that."
 

Cons

"The Robotic Process Automation features are not mature enough. ServiceNow could work toward that because we can leverage RP only from this platform."
"The tool has a lot of limitations."
"The user interface could be modernized and made more attractive for users."
"Simplifying the user interface for both users and administrators is key. It is not very intuitive."
"This platform is used more by large companies because it is a little bit expensive."
"The analytics should be more readily available on the base product."
"The initial setup requires a lot of customization based on the individual company's processes."
"ServiceNow Now Platform wants AI embedded in the product to make it more powerful. Generative AI that will be a part of ServiceNow Now Platform is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I noticed that it lacks the ability to automatically record the process steps like some of its competitors."
"There is a need for improved integration with external systems in SS&C."
"Blue Prism is more costly than UiPath in terms of robotic licenses and orchestrators."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Most of the features are included in the licensing cost. However, if we need extra plugins that are not available at the ServiceNow Hub or store, then we have to pay extra for those."
"The solution is expensive, and I rate it a ten for pricing."
"It is expensive only."
"Pricing is based on the number of users and user licenses, but the product is 20% to 30% more than the competition."
"In my opinion, it is expensive. However, they do offer favorable licensing for charities, for example."
"Price-wise, I would describe the product's cost to be more than the average, but it compensates for that with the functionalities that it provides."
"From what I heard, the license for the ServiceNow Now Platform is paid monthly, and on a scale of one to five, I'm rating it a three in terms of pricing, so it's on the cheaper side. I don't know of any additional costs associated with the ServiceNow Now Platform, apart from the standard licensing fees."
"The solution is expensive."
