What differentiates ServiceNow IT Service Management from other similar products?

It has so many great tools and resources to manage any and all ITSM needs. I have not seen an ITSM service quite like this one.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Its advanced features that allow for automation, integration, and high levels of end-user support.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Its a very dense service and can take some time to fully understand how to use. Not to mention it's very expensive, both the actual license, but also to have it set up and integrated into your organization.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Make sure to spend time asking questions to your rep and run plenty of demos to make sure it's what will work best for your company. SNOW is best utilized (in my experience) by more well established enterprises who are looking to step-up their ITSM game.
