SAP NetWeaver BPM vs. ServiceNow IT Operations Management

It is well suited when we need to integrate business processes with SAP ERP and SAP CRM - the solution can be integrated with business rules/procedures defined in SAP ERP/CRM and NetWeaver can be used to monitor the rules and flag off exceptions. When there are multiple workflows running, it tends to slow down running of these processes. Also, it entirely depends on SAP portal for it to run efficiently.

If you’re integrating with a CCaaS platform, don't just stop at "Ticket Sync." Focus on the Service Mapping. Knowing which technical components support which "Customer Journeys" is the biggest value-add you can provide to your customers' businesses. Trust me, they will know the value added.

• Virtual paper trail. Iterations of process and current documentation are all stored as "artifacts", leaving a great trail.
• Configuration of users. BPM somewhat magically determines which users will be impacted and automates rules.
• A pro (that is also a con) is the design interface. If you know what you are doing, it is incredibly powerful and malleable.

• Linking multipe records (Knowledge Items, Problem, change,. CI) to a single incident
• A customers 'super" user has access to all cases that are filled by them.
• When a change is filed and you link to the CI involved. You get an overview of all CI that depends on the involved CI.

• A lot of flexibility in the licensing options which can get overwhelming.
• They are just starting to get into helping with DevOps so I don't have as much experience there but it's a challenge for us.
• Pricing negotiations - although that can be pretty much every vendor.

As a big fan of SAP in general, the BPM solution fits right in with all the other things SAP does well, and does it with incredible efficiency

We have our own tech support for systems, I would say they probably could use more training on it, I don't really think it's anything regarding the SAP system, but more the knowledge they have on the system itself. It seems to take longer for them to fix any issues we may come across.

I found the initial setup of NetWeaver is much simpler than other products especially in an SAP environment where we have SAP ERP/HRM/CRM as it can be well integrated with other SAP products. The only drawback is the need/dependency on SAP Portal. It is better suited in an environment where SAP ERP is running.

• Did not have any negative experience except for the fact that at times when multiple rules run, it can be somewhat slow
