Honest Review of ServiceNow (as a ticketing system)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

ServiceNow DevOps is used to open tickets related to IT Production support. Also, generic tickets to handle requests between different IT functions (i.e. between Networking and Engineering). Change requests to promote development changes from Non Production to Production environments were also handled with ServiceNow DevOps. I was able to submit all kinds of tickets within the software and also approve certain tickets that were specifically directed to my IT team

Pros

  • Change Requests tickets
  • Production support tickets
  • Tickets among different business units or within IT functions to request work to be done

Cons

  • I'd like to see more interaction with email. Once a ticket is closed I'd like to have an email come to me automatically and just be able to click on something to effectively close the ticket in ServiceNow DevOps after providing closing details
  • I'd like in certain exceptions to be able to open tickets with time in past.

Most Important Features

  • Ticketing system
  • Change Control scheduling
  • email integration

Return on Investment

  • It increased coordination between teams when handling Production support tickets
  • It increased the speed to react and handle Production support tickets
