livepro vs. ServiceNow Customer Service Management

The great thing about livepro is you can structure your content the way that suits your organisation. livepro are there to support you in deciding what may work best for your team, it is not a one size fits all solution. The system allows you to write complex processes in a simplified view so staff can easily navigate to the solution they need. The 'rocket' knowledge object allows your processes that have a lot of variation to be written up in a simple decision tree setup, taking your staff to the right outcome every time.

As a very technical company we get a variety of resources assigned to answer different questions. We currently use [ServiceNow Customer Service Management] to help us have an prioritization for all of these now. We use the service now across a variety of departments that all deal with complex technical questions that need to spread out across different individuals. There are so many expertise needed for each individual question so having it routed to the right resource in an timely manner is vital to the success of our business.

• Feedback module. I'm scratching for things to record in cons here. The feedback module could be improved by having further display options - being able to preview feedback without clicking into it. However, livepro have taken this feedback on board and are already looking at ways to improve.
• Admin/roles. The current way to set up the roles/permissions is clunky however this is not a space you need to use often. I'm looking forward to the new and improved version that is being worked on.

• Need a aid on how to use the system.
• Functionality to scroll down should not be too sensitive.
• Adding user helpful tools to help navigate.

There is a great external community and internal knowledge base that covers pretty much anything you need.

SharePoint did not have the functionality that livepro does. We attempted to create a knowledge hub in SharePoint but were left disappointed.

Connectwise targets small to medium enterprises and kept things simple for cross-organizational communications. On the other hand, ServiceNow with users with more than 500 at least, tends to create lag and tension when all are using the app at the same time, especially getting reports in a timely manner.
