Have experienced improved project and resource management with strategic alignment and comprehensive support
The complete ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management suite is used for strategic alignment, allowing us to track projects, portfolios, costs, and vendors to make informed decisions based on project tasks. While I may not be able to specify exact strategic outcomes from the SPM, the overall cost can be reduced by eliminating scattered tools such as JIRA and Microsoft Project Planner, which were onboarded into a single platform for multiple processes in ServiceNow, especially with CSDM that offers services-based alignment. The impact of ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management's analytics and reporting features on decision-making processes includes utilizing reports based on milestones during project implementations. Some tasks can be delayed or not aligned with requirements, such as in agile-based projects where features such as Sprint Burndown Charts are monitored. Reports can be fetched from SPM showing if milestones have been achieved, allowing for course corrections based on metrics indicating whether they are on track.

"Teamwork has made process management easier and much better. It is very robust and improves by making a lot of changes. It is easy to use and has lots of reports."
"It is a very stable solution...The initial setup of Teamwork is easy."
"The setup was very easy. Deployment was very fast for us. We started using it within two weeks."
 

Cons

"The solution needs a few things in terms of resource management."
"The interface is cluttered with a lot of names and areas. It may not be user friendly enough for a first timer."
"The product comes with little options out of the box."
"ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management must improve its interface, which is not very interactive or user-friendly compared to other tools like Zendesk. The real-time reporting feature doesn't help much in our decision-making process. It's quite complex to use and lacks the rich features needed for visualization. Overall, I find it to be very poor."
"ServiceNow needs to invest more in integration. That's the only thing. It could always extend its portfolio a little bit."
"The price keeps going up, and to remain competitive, it needs to have a competitive edge. I would like to see more of the latest innovations, in terms of AI, ML, and all of the latest cutting-edge technologies, included in the platform."
"ServiceNow need to focus on internal empowerment rather than awareness to drive the change."
"I found the documentation difficult to figure out the basics of how it works. If the documentation could be improved to make understanding the basics easier, that would be beneficial, as I had to search through different videos and multiple places to find information."
"The product is expensive. It needs to have a more robust and customizable calendar."
"The product could be improved with more integrations and a mobile app."
"The screen sharing provided by the solution can be a challenge to a user. Screen sharing is an area that needs improvement in the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is expensive."
"It is a little expensive. We are in Brazil, and for us, it is a little expensive."
"The pricing is negotiable based on the contract and licensing perspective."
"The solution could improve by being less expensive and the pricing model is confusing. Many people are getting charged different amounts. There are additional fees that they are adding on."
"I rate the price of ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management a seven out of ten."
"It's more suitable for larger companies as the licensing cost is relatively high. Not everyone can afford this tool."
"I would rate the cost as five out of ten."
"The solution is expensive."
"We negotiate on pricing since we are a long-term user."
"My company makes annual payments towards the licensing costs of the solution."
