ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management Likes & Dislikes

Like

Having a standardized demand intake process with a single view of my priorities makes it much easier for me to have informed conversations with leadership on what has been completed and what is yet to come on the portfolio roadmap. This helps move discussions away from opinions and more towards data, which is a huge win for our PMO governance structure and how it operates.

Like

The software is great to avoid siloed planning and ensures cross-enterprise visibility, and governance

Like

SPM offers streamlined project management, agile and hybrid postures for organizations to ease the handling of remote workers. Service Now SPM can easily integrate into multiple eco systems like ITSM, HR, SecOps and multiple modules which provides unified record system to enable strategic planning, project execution and service delivery to clients globally.

Dislike

The biggest drawback is the complexity and set up effort required at the beginning of implementation. It's not very intuitive out of the box, and meaningful reporting depends heavily on proper configuration and data quality. I also do find there's some rigidity when trying to adapt it to more evolving PMO processes, which require a little more customization.

Dislike

SPM does an OK job at standardizing intake, triage, and prioritization. However, this may be more of an issue with internal workflows rather than a lack of service/support.

Dislike

SPM comes with high licensing and training costs for new users. The initial implementation is a bit difficult without getting Service Now back end support.

    Good overall experience as the interface is intuitive and the structure of demand > project is valuable. The reporting customization is not optimal but I think it's being upgraded in the next release.
