Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros ServiceNow was used extensively by my uni's IT department, where I worked for a while. We'd have different teams in the system and our users would submit tickets and tag different teams, and ServiceNow was like an email wrapper that kept track of incidents and information that the users would give. It seemed to play well with our other alerting systems and users were mostly able to contact us without issue. Cons The UI man. This was a few years ago so maybe things are better now but geez dude can you try to select a worse color scheme than blocky grey boxes without a shred of elegance or rounded corners? Ugly as heck and intimidating with dropdown boxes under more dropdowns, and some of the pages weren't intuitive either.		Pros from Real Users Pros The system is incredibly user-friendly and intuitive, making day-to-day tasks simple to manage. Its flexibility allows us to tailor workflows and dashboards to suit our specific needs, and the customer support team has been outstanding—quick to respond, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful throughout setup and ongoing use.
