Since we introduced ServiceNow in our company, our business processes have improved significantly. Resolution times are now shorter than they were before, as we have access to accurate insights based on the contracted SLAs we implemented. Additionally, the management of configuration items has become much more effective since we adopted the CSDM model. This allows us to clearly identify which services are impacted whenever a configuration item is affected by a change or incident. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The menu and overall user interface could use some improvement. For instance, in ITSM, the Operations Workspace is utilized, while for CSM, we rely on the CSM/FSM configurable workspace. However, not all features—such as UI actions and lists—are implemented in a consistent way across these areas. At times, it feels as though the various product teams within ServiceNow are not coordinating closely with one another. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ServiceNow ITSM provides a highly structured and automated approach to managing IT services. I like how it centralizes incident, problem, and change management processes, which helps improve efficiency and reduce downtime. The dashboard and reporting features make it easy to track service performance and ensure SLAs are met. Its integration capabilities with other enterprise tools are also a big plus, making workflows smooth and reducing manual work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While ServiceNow offers robust capabilities, the platform may seem somewhat complicated for newcomers. Setting up and configuring the system initially demands a certain level of technical expertise, and making customizations can often take considerable time.

While ServiceNow ITSM is powerful, it can sometimes feel complex and overwhelming for new users because of the many features and configurations. The implementation and customization process often requires significant time and expertise, which can be challenging for organizations without strong technical support.

Another drawback is that the system performance may slow down when handling large amounts of data or during peak usage. The licensing and cost can also be on the higher side compared to other ITSM tools, making it less budget-friendly for smaller teams.

I’ve found ServiceNow ITSM to be one of the most effective platforms for managing IT services. The best part is how it brings everything together — incidents, problems, changes, and requests — into a single, organized system. Instead of chasing emails or scattered updates, I can clearly see what’s happening, who’s responsible, and where things stand.

The self-service portal is another strong point. End users can easily raise requests or track their issues without needing to constantly follow up with IT staff. This not only saves time but also reduces frustration for both the IT team and employees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While ServiceNow ITSM is powerful, there are a few things that can be frustrating. The first is the complexity — for new users, the interface can feel overwhelming, with too many menus and options.

You can create different assignment groups and add relevant filters on the dashboard to sort incidents by date. It’s possible to prioritize incidents by setting their severity, and you can also save your favorite predefined filters, such as 'my work unassigned,' 'homepage,' or 'last 30 days.' The platform is easy to use and is especially effective for handling customer support incidents. Additionally, you can track the progress of incidents based on SLA, which helps ensure timely resolution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The system prompts me to add worknotes before I can save, which I don't like it because the description on the incident has enough details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really enjoy the reporting aspect of ServiceNow IT Service Management. It provides the accurate data we need and allows us to explain our activities to partners effectively. The ability to rerun reports and receive them via email is immensely beneficial. I also find the configuration for the service operations workspace extremely useful.

I found the initial setup of ServiceNow IT Service Management to be a bit daunting. It took time to go through and understand the system using knowledge articles and the ServiceNow portal. Additionally, I felt that there should be more pre-configured, out-of-the-box features available. Although updates have improved the functionality, initially, the limited availability of such features was a drawback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
