Overall Satisfaction with ServiceNow IT Service Management

We use ServiceNow IT Service Management for all of the standard ITIL components. Change, Incident, Problem, Knowledge and Tasks. It is used by numerous departments in our organization, ranging from users in IT (service desk, request fulfillment, etc) to non-IT (HR, premises, special services, etc)

Pros

  • It is exceptional for ticket intake and tracking
  • Handling SLAs on tickets
  • All the steps required for standard ticket life (i.e. notifications, work notes, etc)

Cons

  • It is missing the concept of a work order, like BMC Remedy has
  • Sometimes the core UI vs the workspace can be bothersome to troubleshoot with a user, as they aren't always clear as to which interface they are using
  • The ServiceNow IT Service Management module has allowed us to provide a ticketing solution to numerous departments outside of IT
  • Integration between Change and Azure DevOps via CI/CD pipelines has helped our IT departments become better at Agile methodologies
As mentioned previously, it's based on the ITIL v4 framework. So because of that, it just flows in terms of being intuitive and easy to use. Being able to transition from a different tool, such as BMC Remedy, to this because of the adherence to the framework.
ServiceNow got it's start from former employees of BMC and it's easy to see where they tailored the tool to utilize the strengths of Remedy/Helix. But at the same time, steered away from the pitfalls that BMC has ran into. I think ServiceNow IT Service Management is LEAGUES above Remedy/Helix at this point in time.
