ServiceNow Now Platform vs. TIBCO iProcess (discontinued)

Using it in the application support team is worth it as it is capable of carrying a lot of information. But using it for a Service Desk operation might not be of much use as it won't be used up to its full potential and will be costly as compared to other alternatives available in the market.

iProcess is a perfect BPM tool that has been able to solve complex business problems and situations, but with time newer and easier to use tools have also been developed by competing companies and thus this tool needs to evolve with the competition. Newer and more easy to use tools are also available from TIBCO as well such as AMX BPM.

• Performance. TIBCO iProcess is the most performant BPM I've even seen.
• Manage large workloads. It can handle tens of thousands users and groups, hundreds of thousand or million live cases.
• It can also manage very large and complex process definitions.
• Very stable, once you get your business process up and running it is very stable.

Incentivized

• Providing admins/devs with easier mechanisms for providing businss stakeholders with self-service admin capabilities across the platform
• Tutorials on how to be the best at reporting in servicenow
• Guided tour functionaltiy is a bit rigid and could use more workflow capabilities
• Making it easier to push form variables to the user so there is more context when providing an approval. The out of box approval UI/form is terrible in my opinion.

• It is complex to use.
• The official support for the tool is not available anymore through TIBCO.

As a regular user of the ServiceNow platform, including the incident management, change management and enterprise application management modules, I find that I am able to competently use the platform with minimal training and assistance. User guides are available from the vendor if required. The customisable front-end that we use in the organisation as an ordering tool for internal IT services is very easy to use, and makes searching for the required IT service simple for business users.

It integrates all the BPM principles along with the great user interface and independent modules and engines. All the modules are separate and stand alone and thus provides easier understanding and ease of support.

We have many levels of interaction with ServiceNow. The first line of support sometimes is not equipped to resolve more complex issues, but the escalation process is clearly defined and followed with limited friction. Our account team is very responsive and willing to brainstorm ideas to improve and increase usage. We also have direct interaction with product teams to see previews of new features and at times to provide input to influence implementation details.

ServiceNow is by far a better tool over Remedy. Its ability to integrate so seamlessly to so many tools allows for plenty of opportunity to streamline and improve processes. Servicenow has intuitive flows that allow you to quickly pivot if process change. Its adaptiveness is what makes it far better solution over Remedy

iProcess is a previous generation product, it lacks OSGi and cloud so it is seen as "old". Due to this, it is difficult to choose new installations. All other options seem shiny in comparison. But regarding performance and stability, it is still unsurpassed.

1. It is not great when they can't seperate apps/products from a particular sku, forcing you to make a business case for a larger portion of functionlity than your current business case seeks to address. 2. ServiceNow reps are able to work with you when economies of scale are projected out. They are willing to start at a desired tier and provide pricing at applicable upgraded tiers

Very easy to use. Capture more data from the Incident and problem management. Easier to escalate and following the change management process to resole the issues.

• Ensuring good service support internally and externally has triggered opportunities to sustain good links with everyone and opened the door to more sales and successful business and ServiceNow has been key in all this, so the investment came back to us faster than expected.

• Numbers are difficult to crunch, the best impact is that you always know the status of a single business case and the system runs fast and smoothly; your users will forget what waiting is.
• Case tracking is perfectly accurate, having that you can extract statistical data and predict and optimize your business very accurately.
• TIBCO iProcess administrators must be quite skilled; that increases your overall costs so the ROI will be delayed a bit.
