JaiBharath Boithi - PeerSpot reviewer
Data Scientist at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees
Agile planning has improved daily coordination but reporting and dashboards still need more flexibility
I would like to see more advanced reporting and analytics customization. The existing dashboards are useful for tracking velocity, backlog, and delivery, but deeper real-time insights would improve decision-making. I would also like simpler integrations and more flexibility, especially across large teams and complex projects. Another improvement I would like is more flexible reporting and dashboard customization, especially for creating organization-specific metrics. More intuitive visualizations would also help. Digital.ai Agility can be improved mainly by making reporting and dashboard customization more flexible and intuitive. I would also like simpler integrations with third-party tools and easier configurations of automated workflows. Better dependency visualizations and real-time alerts for delivery risk would help large teams identify blockers earlier. The user interface could also be simplified to make it easier for new users. Overall, these improvements would make day-to-day planning, reporting, and cross-team coordination more efficient. There are a few areas where improvements are needed. I would like to see further improvements in user experience and navigation, especially making commonly used features easier to access for new users. More intuitive dashboard customization, better dependency visualization, and simpler third-party integrations would also help.

Senior Software Analyst at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Workflow automation has streamlined request tracking and approval processes for my teams
ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management could be made better by reducing the prices. They should also provide more features with a better price compared to other tools in the market. Power Apps and Power Automate are much cheaper now compared to ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management. They should provide the approval license at no cost for ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management; otherwise, it would be difficult to continue with ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management. They must add integrations with other tools, and also a plug and play integration. The auto-closing of incidents with AI should be implemented; for example, if a user is facing an issue with a computer or some application, that incident needs to be taken care of by AI itself instead of a human.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It allows my clients to have one central tool to manage their agile projects."
"With some of the other tools, you have to buy 20 different plugins to get to the same capability that comes with the basic Agility capability."
"It can generate reports showing a burndown chart, burnup chart, and the planned vs actual velocity."
"I prefer Agility out of the three applications we work with because it has the most flexibility and can work at a higher level."
"VersionOne delivers a total ALM solution for whether you are operating a single team, like Scrum and Kanban for IT operations, or implementing an agile enterprise approach, like SAFe."
"Agility is highly flexible. It can do much more than what our client is doing with it. They use it in a defined way. Some at that company have a much broader knowledge of agile and SAFe, but they're given applications and a mandated way to work. We had to work within their parameters and provide an accurate transition so the data would be mapped and pushed through."
"Overall, the biggest benefits have been better delivery visibility, improved planning, faster decision-making, and reduced administrative effort."
"You can use Digital.ai Agility for automating your tasks and creating your dashboard."
"The program is stable."
"The most valuable feature of ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management is incident management."
"What I like about ServiceNow is how it operates as a complete platform."
"The best feature is the effective reporting system for project portfolio and program management."
"The product is quite convenient and user-friendly."
"We mainly use the solution to support operations and align our ITSM operations with our business goals. This involves coordinating between our application development, support teams, and network engineering teams. When there's an issue at the product or network level, we raise a ticket, and our team works together to resolve it."
"We don't have any complaints regarding the stability of ServiceNow IT Business Management."
"The most important feature for us is project portfolio management, which helps us manage and track the entire life cycle of a project or a program at an enterprise scale and across business portfolios."
 

Cons

"The user interface could also be simplified to make it easier for new users."
"The response from Digital.ai Agility is a little bit slow and could be faster."
"It was not supporting some plugins. We wanted to migrate data that we were already using."
"There is room for improvement in getting the analytics portion of the solution more integrated with the rest of it."
"In my work as a contractor, it's always frustrating when a client has multiple software applications that don't talk to each other and they all perform the same function. That presents a huge challenge between their IT groups."
"The machine learning features are a new capability but could be improved. This is being worked by Digital.ai currently. Multicolor simulation, specifically, could be improved."
"The user interface can be improved by adding Save, Edit, Add, Cancel, and Return buttons to the popup windows that are displayed when you click on a child item."
"Improve how to create and track releases. Currently, I have to create child projects."
"Improvements in ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management could involve enhancing the project workbench, which currently shows every project to any project manager."
"Improving configuration activities and productivity would be beneficial, as fresh graduates using the system require training to adapt."
"The adoption of the Common Service Data Model in an organization to leverage best practices is where the challenge lies. It's not that the product lacks features, but rather organizations often adopt it at a maturity level beyond their capacity."
"We track salaries or paychecks of the resources. They change from time to time, such as every six months or every year. If they can come up with a default or out-of-the-box feature to manage those multiple payable costs so that we can automatically calculate the project costs rolled up. That would be the coolest feature that we can expect from ServiceNow. We would like to have an automatic feature to manage the payable costs. We should be able to manage or maintain multiple pay costs so that while calculating the project roll-up costs for individual projects, the respective pay costs in a particular period are picked up automatically from the backend. Currently, we have to customize that. It is doable. We have done it but through customization."
"The interface isn't user-friendly."
"A major improvement we would like to see is definitely around agile management."
"The initial setup is complex and should be simplified."
"It could be more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Comparing the pricing to other products, I think this solution is in the middle."
"You get what you pay for. Don't let your development teams dictate what the portfolio management team should use as the main tool."
"It's more suitable for larger companies as the licensing cost is relatively high. Not everyone can afford this tool."
"The solution is expensive."
"I rate the price of ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management a seven out of ten."
"The pricing is negotiable based on the contract and licensing perspective."
"The cost of the solution should not be more than $50,000 annually."
"We have a team of about 6,500 employees across the globe. So, the amount of money I'm going to save by putting the money on the table for the implementation and licenses is very high."
"I would rate the cost as five out of ten."
"They sell some things in bundles, and it could be handier that some of those things could be sold in another way, like purity models and other packages. Another thing that I'm struggling with is the pricing of ServiceNow's FYE experience, which includes the tools that are positioned for supporting HR."
