Room For Improvement

Users criticize ServiceNow for high costs, complex pricing, outdated interface, and inadequate automation, reporting, integration, and security features.
Unqork users seek improved UI, mobile support, learning resources, platform interoperability, and enhanced grid, analytics, and collaboration features.
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.

Featured Reviews

Hemanthreddy Vakiti - PeerSpot reviewer
Data engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Structured workflows have improved SLA compliance and now support prioritized incident handling
I think the licensing and pricing of ServiceNow is quite expensive compared to other tools. For large organizations, it is acceptable, but specifically for small and medium organizations to track incidents or change requests, ServiceNow is quite expensive. Sometimes performance can be slow when workflows and integrations are configured for complex tasks. For advanced customizations or advanced features which we rarely use, the documentation is not up to standard. The documentation needs to be improved for advanced customization features. However, the platform is stable overall and the features are quite good. The user experience and performance concerns I mentioned are areas I want to be improved. When many workflows and interactions are configured, performance is slow. For the features it is providing, it is quite expensive. If these performance features are improved, we can easily pay that price and get the return on investment.

Comprehensive features in one platform improve project management
There are numerous areas for improvement in Unqork. For example, while they are replacing view grid with Vega grid, the Vega grid lacks certain features available in the view grid. In the view grid, we can have buttons against each row and events against each row event, which is not available in Vega grid.Case management functionality is not currently available. Regarding versioning, while it is available to the market, it is not optimal. If versioning is deployed on any application, rolling back is not possible. When multiple people work on the same module in different versions or branches, merging can overwrite changes. The merging technology needs improvement in Unqork. Connecting to the database is straightforward, but querying MongoDB and getting results requires additional effort. Case management is still unavailable to the general market. We attempted to implement it but had to step back as it did not meet all business functionalities. The Vega versioning also presents development challenges despite business interest.
