Good monitoring and alerting capability, and it is easy to deploy
This solution is good for configuration management. The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training. ManageEngine is easy to deploy. It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network. The alerting capability is good and it will send out emails.

Significant enhancement in operations with powerful discovery and analytics, yet pricing structure poses challenges
ServiceNow IT Operations Management provides out-of-the-box dashboards. Along with the dashboard, it also provides the Operations Workspace, which is very useful for operations teams. There is a functionality called Performance Analytics, which we are also using to develop some dashboards for the senior leadership and operations team where they can perform trend analysis of alerts and events happening across the infrastructure and application landscape. These dashboards are really useful here. ServiceNow IT Operations Management's biggest plus point is that it is a platform. ITOM is just one module that ServiceNow IT Operations Management offers, but they provide seamless integration of ITOM with their other modules such as ITSM, where we can leverage the AIs for discovery, perform impact analysis, which essentially helps to enhance the overall IT operations and reduce the downtime and MTTR.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The technical support is good."
"Customer Service: Absolutely fantastic."
"The product helps users stay on top of gaining insight into the active directory, permissions and security sets, and user group policy changes."
"I would suggest you use this product as it's easy for administration, and is based on distributed model support."
"All I know is that when it comes to managing the active directory, ManageEngine is something I consider to be the best."
"The primary use case of this solution is to manage and to protect the web servers, the mail server, and the website in my company."
"The monitoring capability is easy to use and it can be done without any training."
"It is easy to identify and collect information from all of the nodes on the network."
"It is a stable solution. I have not experienced any system outages during my time using the solution."
"It has been very useful for tracking. It has evolved a lot over time, and there is a single pane of glass where you can track and see everything."
"It provided out-of-the-box integrations, requiring only minimal effort, typically a couple of days, to massage those systems into a seamless operation."
"The initial setup is very straightforward. A person just needs to join a team to access the network and that's all."
"The reason is it's cost-effective, number one."
"ServiceNow IT Operations Management pays for itself because of how flexible it is, and it's a very strong tool."
"The auto remediation feature has been most valuable. They have also introduced an AOP feature of ServiceNow that we are keen to explore."
"It is a product that is familiar for a lot of users."
 

Cons

"The ManageEngine features could improve to show graphs of the traffic and network utility."
"The GUI could be improved."
"We would like to have support for integration with ServiceDesk."
"ManageEngine needs to fix the downtime scheduler for SNMP monitored devices. Alarms are still generated for the devices placed into scheduled maintenance."
"This is because of the lack of available technical knowledge in terms of competence and maximizing the power of the product."
"The product could use more intelligence, automation and general availability of product information."
"ServiceNow could be more prescriptive on how customers can leverage some of the benefits."
"The service discovery tool should include HR automations that automatically remove an employee who is leaving."
"The initial setup phase was hard and could be made easier."
"The solution’s licensing cost could be improved."
"The time for deployment of ServiceNow IT Operations Management depends on many factors. It's a SaaS application, it should not take too long, but if you want to define the tool based on your processes, then it would take some time. It fully depends on the company's complexity. There are out-of-the-box product flows and if you want to use them, you can from day one. However, if you want to customize it and change it to your company's practices, then it will take more time. The setup could be faster."
"ServiceNow IT Operations Management could do a little bit better with integrations. Integrating ServiceNow IT Operations Management with CMDB processes needs a little more work."
"There is a slower learning curve associated with the tool's scripting part. It is also not cheap."
"Regarding ServiceNow, there is room for improvement in terms of customization, particularly in the area of self-customization."
