Review summaries and opinions

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

ROI

Sentiment score
6.6
ServiceNow enhances efficiency and cost savings, providing ROI within a year, despite initial costs and adoption challenges.
Sentiment score
8.9
Studio Creatio boosted ROI with streamlined processes, task automation, enhanced productivity, reduced costs, and industry-specific adaptability.
They have removed the costs associated with on-prem infrastructure, including data center costs, power costs, and physical server costs.
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 return on investment is good when implementing for ourselves and for other clients.
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
6.9
ServiceNow support is praised for responsiveness and resources but experiences mixed reviews due to delays and inconsistencies.
Sentiment score
7.6
Studio Creatio's customer service is praised for responsiveness and competence, though challenges exist with regional support and certified developers.
Obtaining support for maintenance is the current challenge because they don't have a presence in the local market.
The support is exemplary and deserves a perfect rating.
Time to respond from support could definitely be better, as the global support timing sometimes causes delays in interactions.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.4
ServiceNow is scalable and effective for global operations, though performance issues and pricing concerns exist for some users.
Sentiment score
8.2
Studio Creatio is a highly scalable platform used by medium and large companies, praised for handling multiple roles and processes efficiently.
There are no limitations or performance issues with ServiceNow; it is cloud-based, so it is highly scalable and performs well.
It is capable of vertical scaling with no issues.
I rate the scalability of ServiceNow as an eight on a scale of one to ten.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.7
ServiceNow is widely praised for its stability and reliability, with efficient support and minimal downtime, making it dependable.
Sentiment score
8.1
Studio Creatio is praised for its stability and reliability, with users attributing occasional issues to external factors.
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.
I rate the stability of ServiceNow as a nine on a scale of one to ten.
 

Room For Improvement

ServiceNow needs to enhance user interface, licensing, support, integration, and analytics to improve user experience and satisfaction.
Studio Creatio needs better mobile customization, UI control, business rule flexibility, accurate translations, technical documentation, and improved performance for large processes.
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.
Moreover, ServiceNow does not charge based on data uploaded or downloaded, so they should reconsider their pricing and data policies to align better with the financial capabilities of the region.
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.
 

Setup Cost

ServiceNow is costly with complex licensing, requiring negotiation and flexibility, especially burdensome for small and regional businesses.
Studio Creatio offers a flexible and reasonably priced licensing model, costing $15 per user per month, rated 5-6 in affordability.
ServiceNow's pricing can be justified if more functionality is required.
ServiceNow does come with a price.
ServiceNow is expensive for all regions.
 

Valuable Features

ServiceNow offers flexible customization, fast development, and strong integration, enhancing efficiency across IT, HR, and finance with robust reporting.
Studio Creatio provides configurable CRM, low-code/no-code platforms, and process management with automation, scalability, and superb business support features.
ServiceNow provides a wide range of functionality, covering all the necessary modules, unlike Jira which is primarily for IT.
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.
Automation capabilities are impressive, bolstered by a vast repository of out-of-the-box connectors and plugins that facilitate integration with various applications worldwide.

Featured Reviews

Nikhil Gohil - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables effective incident management and seamless workflow automation with valuable mobile accessibility
I haven't thought deeply about improvements for ServiceNow or what might be missing right now. There are so many modules and features in ServiceNow that I haven't explored them all, so it's hard to say what might be missing or should be improved. I suggest making the cost more affordable for smaller companies.
Anatolii Vovniuk - PeerSpot reviewer
Customizable, easy to use, and has good built-in dashboards
The tool is available on the cloud as well as on-premise. The ease of setup depends on the complexity of the project. In most cases, we just connect and work. We must create our own team and find a partner to build our own application. If we need to create something new, it will take time. I rate the ease of setup of the cloud version a ten out of ten. However, I would rate the ease of setup of the on-premise version a five or six out of ten. The on-premise version takes longer to deploy. The cloud version can be deployed within minutes. We receive a license key and start working. If all the components are ready, we can deploy the on-premise version within ten days.
