ServiceNow is is our Primary ISTM and Change Management solution. We also use it for SAM and HAM capabilities. The tool itself is so versatile and useful that we try to integrate as much as we can into ServiceNow. Flow designer is used to automated user management and record keeping for audits.
  • Automation
  • Asset management
  • Ticketing
  • Change Mangment
  • Discovery Maintenance
  • Installation of integrated apps by automatically installing all necessary items
The ServiceNow Platform is well suited for automation processes. The amount of apps that can integrate with ServiceNow allow for numerous processes or Flows to be created. Processes around user IAM can be easily created with integration to Azure / AD or Okta. Also the ability to integrate with tools like SolarWinds allow for system related flows to also be created.
  • Integration
  • Automation
  • Process flows have been greatly improved
  • Asset management has help immensely
  • Reduction of manual tasks
  • BMC Helix ITSM (Remedy)
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.

It supports the business of Technology by managing Incidents, Problems and Changes to the infrastructure, supports a service mindset with a Portfolio of Services, tracks service level agreements for requests, manages safety by recording safety signs for each door, tracks facility requests, as well as a concerige services for a remote location
  • workflow during a request item

  • service level agreement monitoring
  • ability to spin up a low code application
  • creating a notification engine to track all notifications
  • providing a service to return modules to out of the box functionality removing customization

It is awesome for implementing an integrated Service Management approach- Change, Incident, Problem, etc.
Caution when creating scoped applications leveraging email services
  • workflow
  • approvals
  • one stop shop
  • providing transparency on infrastructure work
  • providing transparency on backlog of developement requests to justify staffing

ServiceNow Now Platform is being used in our company to support our own Projects, Customer Projects, Sales Operation, ITSM needs, etc. Our Sales Opportunity management is being controlled and managed by ServiceNow Platform, as well, after we close a deal, the ServiceNow manages all the consulting cycle ServiceNow Now platform, time cards, etc.
  • Flexibility to automate process
  • Easy of use
  • There is room to improvement but nothing specific that I can mentioned at this point.
ServiceNow Now Platform is well suited for those who want a lot of customization and needs to adapt the tool to its own process. In general, other ServiceNow solutions are designed to works out-of-the-box, so with ServiceNow Now Platform, you can easily develop your own solution to manage and automate the process.
  • Fast implementation of our Sales & Operation/Projects controls and process - tool adapted to our needs, not us to adapt to the tool.
  • Once we are a consulting/implementation company, our customers are happy to see that we use what we sell, and it is easy to show them how this platform/tool can have an impact on our own business.
When I assumed my territory (Brazil) at Nuvolax, ServiceNow Now Platform was already implemented, so I haven't had the choice to participate in the selection of the tool. Still, I can compare with other tools I had to use in my previous companies. With ServiceNow Now Platform, we were able to solve problems in a very easy and customized way, so it avoids buying a tool like Salesforce, where we need to adapt a lot to be able to use. The learning curve is faster and easy to use is excellent.
In our specific case, we do not need ServiceNow Now Platform support over the product. However, for our customers and the support offer, from ServiceNow Now Platform, and especially from the partner ecosystem, there are plenty of offers out of the market. From ServiceNow Now Platform, partners, and a robust and mature ecosystem of professionals.

Originally, we purchased the ServiceNow solution as a replacement to our help desk ticketing solution. With growth in public presence and large projects on the horizon, we were looking for more of a service desk solution to replace the previous ticketing system. We implemented first as just a help desk ticket system. Once we got users into the habits of entering tickets and being familiar with the interface, we slowly started to look at other departments (besides IT), as well as business processes that would benefit from ServiceNow. We've now added 9 additional departments and addressed over 20 separate business processes that were antiquated and rolled them into ServiceNow. With each success comes additional user buy-in, as well as exposure and confidence in the product. This has really helped us as an IT Department, not only in getting better reporting, incident and problem response, but also on the customer service side of the equation. Customers are more confident that their needs will be addressed, more responsive in communications, and more willing to collaborate on IT-related projects and requests.


  • Incident response, change management, asset management, and problem management.
  • User communication, availability, ease of use, and user adoption.
  • Menus can sometimes be confusing to navigate, unless paired down or customized.
  • More flexibility needed for templates/home pages and graphics placement for company branding.
Absolutely perfect for IT-related incident, problem, and change management. We've expanded this to departments such as Facilities and Risk. Users now enter facilities, buildings, and security requests, and those items are tracked and reported, whereas before it was all spreadsheets and documents. We've yet to get it to fit correctly in our organization as a project tracking tool. We handle project requests and the beginnings of tasks and projects, but have yet to make it fit organizationally as a full project suite. There is still a lot of work to do on that front as far as our part goes, but out of the box it doesn't fit perfectly.
  • User adoption. Prior to ServiceNow, tracking IT Requests was near impossible.
  • Inter-departmental collaboration: ALL departments, and managers have now "bought-in" and push the platform.
In the past, I've used Remedy and the organization was using Spiceworks for years. I was so used to those platforms that when we started the search, I was honestly, completely biased towards those two. After comparing features side by side, going through user trials and watching customers interact with the interface, and the ease of use and adoption, it was clear that even against my biased opinion, ServiceNow was the clear winner.

During our trials we compared:
ServiceNow
Spiceworks
Remedy
FreshService
Solarwinds
Servicedesk
During the deployment and implementation phase of the project, ServiceNow experts were easy to reach, friendly and helpful at every step. As we've moved through the various stages of the project, we've used customization services and well as incident resolution with great success. The communication is always rapid, precise and courteous. We've never felt like the level of service changed from during the sales or "honeymoon" stage to our continued use. We are very impressed with the level of customer service and support that they continually provide.
