ServiceNow IT Operations Management vs. TrueSight Operations Management (discontinued)

[...] is changing the way our internal support staff (not only in the IT field) work and enhancing the experience for employees seeking IT assistance through ServiceNow IT Operation Management. We have moved the usual and personalized IT tools and functions from [...] service-desk to ServiceNow IT Operations Management. These advancements have sparked innovation in various aspects of our IT support management, such as enhancing accessibility, managing incidents, optimizing IT workflows and procedures, enforcing service level agreements (SLAs), incorporating AI/ML technology, utilizing virtual agents, streamlining automation, and sharing knowledge throughout the support team via data visualization, monitoring, and reporting. In brief, our collaboration with ServiceNow IT Operations Management is enhancing the effectiveness of our internal system and benefiting our shared clients.

If you have a large or complex environment then this tool can be the perfect fit. From many types of OS, database, applications and web sites supported out of the box and powerful customization ability, TrueSight can manage the most complex. If you have a simple or small IT shop then this tool suite may be over-kill and not worth the complexity to set up

• In platform expertise and workflows, so we don't allows have to build everything from scratch.
• Tight integration within ServiceNow (especially ITSM) but also brings information and data in from other sources, so I don't feel we are stuck in a proprietary hole.
• Increased investment in AIOps and automation
• Relatively fast time to value with out-of-the-box capabilities and automation.

• Centralize all monitoring agents in one tool.
• Big catalog of monitoring types (KMs).

We wanted it integrated with ITSM and ITBM. Prioir to that we used JIRA for agile development and SysAid for ticketing. So we started with converting SysAid. We went live with Vanilla ITSM. Then we could have a basis for ITOM. However, we needed to migrated from JIRA to ITSM. Only then we felt mature enough to examine ITOM, which required quite a lot of resources. You need networking, motoring, IT and Cyber security team members in your project!!

Datadog seems to have more freedom to build dashboards. They have more visualization types. However, Pulse seems to be better from a cost stand point. Pulse is able to accomplish everything we need, so no need to spend the extra cost.
