A project management solution that can be automated to suit your needs
I rate the initial setup a seven out of ten because it's easy. We had to really understand the solution because it's huge, and we had to know which sections to bite off first. I might even rate the initial setup a nine out of ten if you know what you've got. Once we had all our data and our migration plan, it was quite easy. The challenge lies more with the organization than the system itself. Sciforma is one of the easiest tools to get going with from a technical point of view, but knowledge is key. Deploying the solution takes from six months to a year, depending on the level of data wanted. While deploying the solution, we have to first compile the user's requirements. Then we have to drop a baseline specification in parallel with a concept rollout. Based on what's in the concept, we pick from what the client understands to be the relevant portions, the minimum requirements. Then I convert it into a project execution plan and then execute the plan. After that, we have initial data collection for configuration and then final live data. Then we have the sign-off processes of different departments. There's a lot of upfront work to get the data prepared for transmission, and that is a big challenge. We did almost a thousand projects per year, so there were quite a lot of decisions to speed up the deployment process. The biggest challenge was to get our internal data organized and map it.

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 makes it more fun to work with a modern designed and easy-to-use solution as a team and not add or analyze data alone. Internal, external, home office, remote work, desktop, mobile (available on iOS and Android), are always connected to One2Team."
"ONE2TEAM revolutionizes the way of working: The cloud based solution for project and portfolio management with very strong collaboration functionality lets executives and team members access their work environment anytime, anywhere to monitor program status, act, and complete a personalized checklist of tasks without the need to send emails or create presentations, simply working together in a dashboard."
"I find Sciforma's customizability valuable."
"The integrated portfolio and project management approach is the most valuable feature of Sciforma."
"The presentation feature was valuable to our company, and the ticket creation system is handy because it is customizable."
"You don't need a lot of plugins."
"The solution offers a lot of opportunities for integrations. We can integrate with Slack, Azure, all the API alternatives, etc. There's a lot of integration modules provided."
"The best feature is the effective reporting system for project portfolio and program management."
"The PPM module is an excellent service."
"The main benefit that IT Business Management provides for me includes tracking the request and finding out the status of the request, which results in time saving."
"The resource manager is useful."
"The most valuable feature of ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management is its end-to-end processes, which enable us to manage strategies from start to finish. It covers idea management to implementation and beyond. Real-time analytics in ServiceNow SPM significantly supports our operational decision-making processes."
 

Cons

"For the future AI (Artificial intelligence) must be part of a modern solution."
"The report developer needs a bit of streamlining."
"The solution's graphical user interface (GUI) is a bit old and could be improved."
"For the future AI (Artificial intelligence) must be part of a modern solution. AI is with its unique ability to monitor patterns, is a capable assistant for project managers. Artificial intelligence is being used to help with project organization on a collection of different data from multi-data sources."
"The interface isn't user-friendly."
"The solution is very expensive and best for larger organizations, mostly due to the fact that it would be too costly to use for medium-sized companies."
"Dashboard interface is limited functionally and not very user friendly"
"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 only issue for us is the pricing. It’s quite high in comparison with the competition."
"Currently, we have to customize that. It is doable. We have done it but through customization."
"The solution needs a few things in terms of resource management."
"ServiceNow needs to invest more in integration. That's the only thing. It could always extend its portfolio a little bit."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is neither too expensive nor too cheap."
"I rate the pricing a four out of ten because Sciforma's rates are good."
"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."
"The licensing is based on metrics and is tailored to customer's needs."
"The solution is expensive."
"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 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."
"The solution was quite expensive."
"The cost of the solution should not be more than $50,000 annually."
