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.

Stable, easy to install, and cost effective, but it needs better integration and data management
It needs better integration with other tools like Jira. Better reporting and better data management are also needed. I believe the way they're structured is the flat file. So it'd be better if they actually used a database for the data storage, and a more robust portal. I would like more flexible reporting.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Productivity has increased since integrating ServiceNow because SLAs have been met in almost 99% of cases."
"The subsequent chain of tasks, I believe, is valuable."
"The ability to get in there and create stuff without worrying about setting everything up first; we can start developing right away without having to get instances set up, get everything provisional, or all the networking stuff done, and just get up and go."
"The solution has good stability."
"If a company is looking for more accessibility, a user friendly environment where they want to explore other functionalities like HR and CSM, then ServiceNow provides that."
"The ability to implement end-to-end flows, including business ones, is the most important aspect of the solution."
"The main improvement is the integration of several business processes."
"Operations and maintenance costs have been reduced using this solution, and we have been able to deliver faster solutions to our customers and track progress using live data."
"The two most valuable features are the portal and reporting."
"Absolutely, we have seen a return on our investment."
"It is more flexible than our current solution."
 

Cons

"I think they also should rethink the way they license the tool because it’s too expensive to automate all of your business, but you’ll need lots of licenses."
"The RPA needs improvement. That's a new area for them that they're just entering into now."
"There are sometimes challenges with the portal being a bit confusing for new users."
"I would like to see Advanced Intelligent Automation."
"Time to respond from support could definitely be better, as the global support timing sometimes causes delays in interactions."
"We don't have a huge amount of password reset requests, but the minimum package of resets that ServiceNow offers is much more than we need."
"They can maybe improve the area of agile project management. They do have user storyboards and other things, but we kind of lean on Jira for that work. This is perhaps an area that could be looked at a little more."
"When it comes to reference fields, there are some limitations where you aren't able to use them, like in relationship queries. In Remedy, when you click a menu, you get options directly, whereas here, if you use a reference field, it points you to a different form. So the UI experience totally changes for the end user."
"Yes. Major system issues and outages during our implementation."
"It's a very cost-effective solution, but it's not robust."
"It needs better integration with other tools like Jira."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."
"ServiceNow's pricing is comparatively higher than Helix's."
"Some time ago it was expensive, but large companies have special contracts. It's enterprise prices, and we're talking about millions per year."
"ServiceNow is an expensive solution."
"The cost is quite high."
"It is an expensive platform."
"It's sold as a less expensive solution, but it has to be highly modified. That's where you get into the cost."
"The price is okay for us. It's reasonable."
"The price is approximately $70 per agent, per month."
