    As we have many different applications running on different servers, we appreciate the possibility of writing our own scripts to monitor the different processes and elements. Using scripts of our choice helps us a lot, as we have many different administrators. Thus, we are able to be prepared for upcoming outages or events.

    Everything in your SN instance is based on your CMDB data. Having Asset Management to store all of the info, as well as the out-of-the-box dashboards and visualizations to assist, is great! Being able to pinpoint where we are in our maturing process and what steps we need to take to move forward is super helpful!

    • The ITAM dashboards and forms can feel overwhelming for agents or managers who don’t use the system every day.
    • While the reporting tools are robust. building custom, dynamic reports still requires a decent understanding of the ServiceNow Platform.

    On overall look, ServiceNow IT Asset Management works amazingly well and it is easy to use for beginners. It is a great tool for all types of companies and with customisation and integration options, ServiceNow IT Asset Management becomes a giant. There are few scope of improvements which when done, will level this tool up.

    We moved over to Checkmk from Nagios which felt like a natural evolution at the time as the raw version is based on Nagios, I vaguely not having any major issues moving over at the time. We still use the Raw version but we are planning to move to the enterprise version in the next 6 – 12 months as our needs expand.

    Servicenow is used in most of the organizations today owing to its easy UI and capability to integrate with other softwares. Hence I have chosen to review the same as this will highly help others to get an understanding of the tool and proceed as per that. It will help businesses to take a correct path.

    • By tracking license usage, we’ve been able to reallocate unused licenses instead of purchasing new ones, saving thousands annually.
    • With the integration to Amazon Connect and Zoom Phone, agents can instantly view user assets during calls, which has reduced average resolution time and improved customer satisfaction scores.
