Seamless Data Intregration, Elevates Workflows
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the seamless integration and native fit of ServiceNow Workflow Data Fabric within the ServiceNow ecosystem, which enhances automation, reporting, and user experience. Its unified data model eliminates data silos and provides real-time data flow across workflows, significantly improving decision-making, enabling efficient cross-department processes, and delivering a clear return on investment. The system's low-code data transformation and prebuilt connectors allow for easy setup and management, while its security features ensure trustworthy data sharing.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find that ServiceNow Workflow Data Fabric lacks out-of-the-box connectors for niche or industry-specific systems, which means that connecting to less common tools still requires custom development or third-party middleware. This limitation extends the onboarding time and increases the complexity of integration processes. For example, integrating our Lab Information Management System (LIMS) into ServiceNow requires custom API work, which could be streamlined with a pre-built connector. Additionally, during initial data synchronization with large datasets, performance trends lower than expected, posing challenges. The setup process also revealed data quality issues, such as inconsistencies, duplicates, and outdated records, which needed addressing. Furthermore, change management has been a challenge, as some teams were resistant to transitioning from their familiar tools to using this new system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use the product to unify data across systems, solving data silos issues and enhancing workflows. It improves decision-making, increases automation, and provides a seamless data flow, reducing errors and manual efforts, ultimately boosting operational efficiency and user experience.

The best of use of AI so far
What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that the architecture of Servicenow remains simple. It's good to have a methodology that's just 3 phased but does such a big and complex task of handling so much of data. The input into transformation into output shows great understanding of core fundamentals to make it work and to make it work so smoothly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually there's nothing to point out except maybe the fact that a workflow creation can be a bit cumbersome at times with a process that's rightfully long in every logical sense.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As of now, keeping in mind that we are at a very early stage of this process, I would say it's definitely the documentation and archival parts of ServiceNow that really speak volumes to us. It really helps us do just what we want and also makes it worry free and hassle-free in every way.
