ServiceNow App Engine vs. Zoho Flow

When the solution involved complex workflows and integration with many 3rd party applications, we felt the Now app engine was less appropriate as it could not handle different integrations simultaneously for incident resolution and complaints management. This was well suited and managed by people who don't know basic coding.

For small—to medium-sized connections between different applications, Zoho Flow is quick and easy to set up and test. However, as a Flow becomes more complicated with multiple connections and decisions, it becomes more difficult to track errors and faults and manage changes. Some of this is due to the history not being detailed enough, and some is just the UI, where you can't zoom in and out and clearly see connecting lines for flows.

• Perfect tools for easy task management.
• Coordination platform.
• Effective project documentation.

Incentivized

• Works with all other Zoho apps to connect them together and share data
• User interface and dashboard are nice. Gives you a detailed look into flow history and/or audit of your flows
• The ability to set logic responses and incorporate custom functions makes the app even more powerful

Incentivized

• Improve the UI of the environment
• The left panel in service now is clumsy that can be improved.
• Connect service now with callers email for any notification related to any incident raised.

Incentivized

• Some history is missing, and not all error reporting is comprehensive enough on more complex functions.
• The ability to run tests on custom functions exists in other apps like CRM.
• Ability to create custom connections for OAuth like in the CRM application.

There are limited use cases where we are just using the service now app engine as of now

overall it's a good software, but I think it could be updated to give it an edge over other platforms

Flow can accomplish almost anything you want to do. It's imperfect, but it could be with just a few more features and better error management/visibility. For someone who's not a developer, this is a no-brainer. Having used other products in the past, like Zapier, this is as easy to use, if not even easier.

They tried their best to resolve our queries every time we contacted them about any technical support

I've reached out to the support team several times with assistance requests in Zoho Flow. Each time the team has answered my questions promptly and accurately. And because we are mainly integrating other Zoho apps their teams are perfectly positioned to solve our problems.

App engine can be used just to process the minimal amount of the data which is being received from the user. We are service now catalogue items or any other data technology.

ServiceNow App Engine is best among all the competitors. Its integration is best with Outlook and ERP, its SLA management is best, and very organized filters are very useful. Categorization of tickets is something that is very useful. It's very easy to search the tasks/order with limited keywords and very easy to customize. The best part is we can simply reply on mails using ServiceNow App Engine and keep a proper log of the tickets.

I've used Zapier and both programs are similar. Zapier has deeper integrations or more apps to integrate with but considering Flow's association with other Zoho apps this does it for us!

It is scalable but not reliable

• Effective and profitable multiple project management platform.
• The tracking of project activities and contract management the tool is amazing.
• Effective solution of files sharing and easy project comment sharing software.
• Intuitive collaboration solution.

• Quick and Easy to set up without the need for a Developer.
• Visibility into the history of flows and the ability to rerun is a big time saver.
