“Platform Integrates ITSM And Contract Management With Strong Workflow Automation Features”

4.0
Feb 5, 2026
The platform provides a robust and well-integrated set of tools that significantly facilitate the management of the ITSM processes, as well as contract management, application/service portfolio management. One of the key strengths is a high level of customization that allows the platform to be adapted to the specific needs of the organization. However, this same flexibility can become a critical factor in platform operability if not properly governed. Excessive or poorly designed customization may increase complexity, impact maintainability, and reduce overall efficiency. Overall, ServiceNow delivers strong value in terms of standardization, visibility and scalability, supporting more efficient operations and informed decision-making.

ServiceNow Now Platform Likes & Dislikes

Like

What I like most about ServiceNow is its comprehensive and integrated approach to service management. The platform effectively supports end-to-end ITSM processes while also extending beyond IT into areas such as contract management, legal, applications and services portfolio. Its strong workflow automation capabilities, centralized data model, and flexibility to adapt to organizational needs enable better process standardization, improved visibility and increased operational efficiency. Additionally, the seamless integration between different modules or external applications provides a consistent user experience and helps break down silos across teams.

Like

Unified platform Having incidents, requests and changes in one system makes management far easier Automation features reduce manual effort and speed up resolution times Custom dashboards and reporting allow tailored views for different stakeholders.

Like

I don't want to repeat my comment above, but that's pretty much how well supported we were during the implementation phase which I liked more about the platform because it ensured our experience as users was much better. Then we have the fact that navigating the platform is easy and it doesn't require to be an expert or long hours of training.

Dislike

The main drawback is the licensing model, where individual modules and even specific functionalities require separate activation and additional license costs. This can make overall expenses less predictable, especially within large or complex organizations where usage can grow over time. Additionally, some user interaction modules can be improved from a graphical and user experience perspective. While functional certain interfaces feel less modern and intuitive compared to current UX standards

Dislike

This is the worst product Ive used for ticket management in my career. It's not intuitive to use at all for myself or my customers.

Dislike

The many versions that the company releases frequently disrupted our implementation plans and also the user experience. Some of the workflows are a bit confusing and development/maintenance hour rate is highly costly.
