Studio Creatio boosted ROI with streamlined processes, task automation, enhanced productivity, reduced costs, and industry-specific adaptability.

ServiceNow excels in customer service responsiveness, but technical support quality varies, particularly with complex issues, prompting community reliance.
Sentiment score

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.
I rate the technical support of ServiceNow as a nine on a scale of one to ten.

ServiceNow excels in scalable cloud infrastructure, supporting smooth expansions across organizations by following best practices and upgrading hardware.

Sentiment score
8.1

It is cloud-based, so it is highly scalable and performs well.
I rate the stability of ServiceNow as a nine on a scale of one to ten.
ServiceNow is stable enough.
 

Room For Improvement

ServiceNow needs pricing, usability, and support enhancements, including better documentation, UI, integration, and global support for improvement.
Studio Creatio needs better mobile customization, UI control, business rule flexibility, accurate translations, technical documentation, and improved performance for large processes.
From a functionality perspective, the features in ServiceNow are acceptable as, at the moment, the ITSM modules rank highly, being 13 plus Pink Elephant certified, which is a good aspect to have.
The official support is often distant, and many partners are not up to standard, which harms the product's reputation.
There is a need for bug or error tracking in ServiceNow.
 

Setup Cost

ServiceNow's pricing is higher due to licensing complexity, requiring negotiation for better deals despite unlimited end-users being supported.
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 is expensive for all regions.
 

Valuable Features

ServiceNow enhances IT operations with flexible integration, customization, and modules, offering efficiency, automation, and seamless cloud-based upgrades.
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.
Automation capabilities are impressive, bolstered by a vast repository of out-of-the-box connectors and plugins that facilitate integration with various applications worldwide.
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.

Featured Reviews

Somnath Kand - PeerSpot reviewer
Custom integration and reporting lead to efficient ticket management
There is a need for bug or error tracking in ServiceNow. Although there are child incidents or tickets, tracking primary issues or bugs within enhancements is not present. The reporting features in the new portal could be more user-friendly. While it provides options to minimize chart and image sizes, actual implementation doesn't always reflect these changes.
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.
