Like

Product is providing a lot of value providing a catalog of services for my enterprise. It is easy to add new services and provide them to customers.

Like

It's very powerful. There's endless amounts of options for you to configure your user experience and you can make sure every issue gets routed to the right team. Besides this, for every update that happens on the case everyone gets informed: The user, their manager and the IT team. It's definitely a plus when everyone involved gets all the communication at the same time, via the case and by email.

Dislike

We have been working with ServiceNow IT Service Management for a while now and there has not been a time that we have complained about it. All its features are easy to work with and the services we get are very satisfying.

Dislike

We spend too much for the product and do not feel like we get the full value. Not getting direct enough support to extract full value. Not feeling the confidence from vendor to help us deliver full value.

Dislike

Navigating the setup that we're using is definitely my biggest challenge. This may just be the way we have it setup, but there's a lot of options everywhere and sometimes finding the right place where to create the ticket for my need can be like navigating a maze. I guess it's more of an issue where more items kept being added all the time until it got to this stage. Could do with consolidation, just like any organizing tool you use for a long time.

    An Extremely Efficient Ticketing Tool that Allows Communication From All Parties Involved At All Times!

    5.0
    Feb 2, 2026
    Our company uses this as the IT ticketing system and it's a world in itself. A lot of menus, each with their own sub-section of ticket you're creating that will take you to the right team that can handle your issue. Can be a bit overwhelming at first with all the options available, but that's our customization of the software.

    ServiceNow Facilitates Agile and Waterfall Project Management for Diverse Organizations

    5.0
    Aug 28, 2025
    I have had an overwhelmingly positive experience with ServiceNow, having used it almost continuously across various organizations. We primarily utilize it as an ITSM tool for managing all aspects of ticketing, both internal and external customer tickets. It is integral to our product development processes, easing all our agile workflows and project management needs, despite some agile project execution also happening on Jira for specific parts. My experiences involved tools which were popular at the time, but ServiceNow quickly displaced it in the market due to its inherent strengths. It offers remarkable flexibility, enabling the creation of diverse reports such as incident reports and release management reports. It supports various project management methodologies, with agile capabilities added later. Essential ITSM modules like project management, incident management, change management, and release management are effectively handled within the platform. An advantage is the ease of use and the speed of its web-based interface, which I have found to be very fast with no lack. The reporting functionality is strong, offering robust filters that allow users to slice & dice data to generate comprehensive reports for both personal use and management presentations. ServiceNow also provides many templates, which significantly streamline setup by eliminating the need to configure the entire system from scratch. The customization capabilities are a significant differentiator, allowing the product to be tailored to a very high degree, essentially becoming "kind of your own tool". For example, when implementing scrum within an agile methodology, ServiceNow enables users to design their own workflows, from backlog management to story selection, rather than being confined to rigid, standard frameworks provided by other tools. For our organization, it is beneficial and easy to maintain. I believe it is the best ITSM tool currently available in the market.
