### "Poor Interface - Too Much Bean Counting and Not Enough Cooking the Meal"

April 13, 2023

1.0

So far, ServiceNow is a distraction with no benefit. Unlikely ServiceNow will ever modernize their product. Every year is 1971 for them, with an IBM 3270 "green screen" interface.

Pros

To its defense, it does process requests without delay.

Cons

Poor user interface design. Lacks an understanding of human factors and fails to embrace modern technology.About the worst part is the designers show a very low interest in gathering the concern being discussed. When you finally get to "problem description," it's buried on page two in a small window that uses 6% of the available display. But that area cannot accept any cut/paste of screenshots.Bypassing this tool is often the best course when there is a need for problem description and subsequent analysis. Tools like Microsoft Word and Outlook do pretty well in letting a person express their concerns. ServiceNow is more like the CSR that asks annoying, irrelevant questions and shows no interest in the concern itself.

### "It's a great ticket system"

January 19, 2018

5.0

Time table of incidents and reports of common every day problems .

Pros

Very easy to create tickets and can be customized to work with your environment. User inventory can easily be populated to all of your company assets. User field can be populated automatically to bring up a user name and profile information.

Cons

Ticket system should automatically be saved. I wished there was a way to duplicate a ticket to a new ticket number for items not resolved. Instead of re-opening a ticket. Your ticket search buttons should be easier to search, I have gotten lost several times searching for tickets.

### "Complete Package"

February 17, 2020

4.0

We are using this ServiceNow CSM as our primary Customer Service tool and we are easily able to manage thousands of cases per day which we have found difficult when using other applications in the past.

Pros

The ServiceNow CSM modules offer a full suite of features for customer management. The product is easy to use and extremely flexible.

Cons

ServiceNow's easy of customization can also be its achilles heel. If managed improperly or over-customized it does not take long to make oob upgrade path unsustainable.

### "Great Tool for HelpDesk Services"

April 1, 2019

4.0

ServiceNow was a huge asset for deploying our first formal Support Service Design. The ease of use and default templates, got us up and running in with no issues. Great Experience overall.

Pros

Out of the box, Service Now comes with configuration templates to get you started on your HelpDesk service deployment. From there, you can start tweaking the tool to match your company needs. This was very helpful to us since we were deploying a ticketing tool for the first time. The deployment process was a breeze, intuitive and we didn´t find any major roadblocks whatsoever. From the user side, is very easy to use, great compatibility with any browser (since is web based), and the amount of tools for reporting are amazing. We are able to benchmark and tweak our Support Service and keep track of our KPI metrics very easily.

Cons

It can be somewhat overpriced. Other than that, no issue whatsoever.

### "The best platform for Service Management"

August 29, 2019

5.0

Pros

you can customize everything you can change the OOTB version of the portal as you like with programming (in other softwares you have constraints due to the OOTB version) The cloud allow you to easily access it everywhere and everytime; there is also an App

Cons

Cost, maybe if you are a small company you don't need that App to be improved Few OOTB customizations in front end; you need to change the code to customize the portal

Reason for choosing ServiceNow Customer Service Management

If the company owns the ITSM solution, having an integrated solution for Customer Management in the same platform can contribute to standardize processes.

### "An additional step - but helpful none the less "

May 9, 2019

4.0

It was a necessary tool used everyday but it would be better to integrate more features with this service.

Pros

We used service now as an additional time management tool with other applications to keep track of project progress. Service now was semi easy to use and made up for what our other service lacked

Cons

Service now could be confusing at times and lacked integration with other systems/software. Could be tricky to change due dates- would have to change all by hand

We've been working along with servicenow for several years and we have more and more success digital transformations stories by building business improvement strategies upon the Servicenow Platform

### "Perfect for tracking our customer interactions"

April 5, 2019

5.0

Pros

Like all ServiceNow modules, the more pieces you buy, the more you gain, this is no different. The customer service management module was a valuable addition to our Incident Management purchase as it ties back to our end user population from a tracking standpoint

Cons

any customization out of the box requires expensive Servicenow or 3rd party assistance to execute. We're trying to keep it as vanilla flavored as possible.

Pros

It does have good platform to create knowledge articles and save it This can be easily adapted by any organization

Cons

Zendesk has a better UI and it tracks the progress of the issue better and in a systematic way so that the ticket quality can be maintained.

### "Good customer service management application"

August 13, 2018

3.0

Service now is a very good ITSM software. This enables us to accurately track issues occurred in our organization from being raised until it is resolved with definite resolution.

Pros

What I like the most in this software is the flexibility. It enables you to add customized workflow, option selections, custom pages depends on your business unit, customization reports and data API.

Cons

The only thing i don't like with this software is the performance. especially when you add too many contents on your page. I think this is the only downside of this application.

### "Incident management made easy"

May 24, 2019

4.0

All customers are saved as there is no risk of custimer service agent forgeting about the incident reported by a client as the system records every incident. Gives customers power to reopen an incident should they feel that they have not been assisted to their satisfaction

Pros

It is easy to use. Has a functionality for knowledge base which can be used when customer service agents are helping customers. You can add people on the watch list so that they are in the loop of what is happening

Cons

Creating a new incident from the system is a bit of struggle. The option is not visible

August 12, 2021

Its good but little complicated and slow

Pros

I like the how the system maintain the security level per user. You can see detail work notes and customer notes in different sections. You can setup priority level, team lots of etc stuff which is nice.

Cons

Its very slow sometimes and takes ages to load the dropdown. Worst part is some dropdowns are mandatory and if it doesn't load you cant create tickets.

### "A powerful CRM containing tons of features."

April 17, 2018

5.0

Pros

\- Highly customizable, extendable, and flexible according to one's needs. - Constantly evolving and improving with two new releases per year. - Contains everything which a CRM should have!

Cons

\- Contains synchronous JavaScript requests which causes web pages to get stuck, disabling any actions on the webpage while the request is active. Sometimes, a page needs to be reloaded to make it work again. - Many features (for instance: Reporting) require training first before a user can start using them. This process can be cumbersome for an average user if training resources are not available. - Expensive as compared to other CRMs (for e.g. SalesForce).

### "ServiceNow does the job, and does it pretty well"

November 20, 2018

4.0

Pros

ServiceNow does make it simple to assign requests, track workflows and any changes to the request. It makes it easy to communicate and resolve issues. Also makes it simple to manage your own workflow and tasks.

Cons

One thing about ServiceNow is that it can be more trouble than it's worth to track every ticket. Some requests simply aren't worth the time it takes to fully utilize the system. ServiceNow also does not have a great dashboard or summary of data. You can get there, but it's not as neat as it could be.
