What I like best about ServiceNow Customer Service Management is that it's a good tool. I like how fast it is and that it's cloud-based. I also like that it's very easy to use. ServiceNow Customer Service Management has minimum options, for example, column options and tab options when compared to other solutions, which makes it easier to use over others.

The setup phase of the solution was straightforward...Regarding the product's user interface, there is an in-built portal developed by ServiceNow, which is good.

We can integrate different technologies in ServiceNow Customer Service Management. An organization would like to offer a digital transformative experience to its employees and customers, which the tool can offer. It can be integrated with any external system. There are also automation possibilities.

One of the solution's most valuable features is its integration with the ITSM suite. When you acquire it, you also get access to incident and problem management from ITSM. This allows you to register a ticket in the product to work with the end user while using ITSM to handle the internal resolution process.

The price could be better. ServiceNow should price products more reasonably.

ServiceNow Customer Service Management works fine for me, for now, so there isn't any room for improvement I see in it. In the next release of the tool, I'd like users to be able to download all reports because as a user, I can only download a limited number of reports from ServiceNow Customer Service Management, but my management team can do so. I'm unsure if it's a feature that's included in the tool or not.

The product lacks customization capabilities. In the future, the product should include more options for customization to be able to meet the demands of the customers.

The solution seems to be moving towards low-code/no-code technology. It is a negative aspect of my experience with the product. It also needs to introduce a clearer pricing structure.

One area for improvement would be integrating IVR systems. Many customers need the ticketing solution and a native IVR system within the same platform. ServiceNow Customer Service Management doesn't offer an IVR solution that works natively or comes in the same package. Customers often have to integrate their IVR with third-party solutions like Twilio. However, the agreement between ServiceNow and Twilio ended some months ago, making it more challenging to integrate IVR functionalities.
