Used it for internal troubleshooting and IT issues. We could log tickets and have them resolved once IT saw the ticket
Pros
Easy ticketing system
Good for keeping track of issues
Sends tickets directly to IT
Cons
Better tagging options
Selecting a specific problem can be confusing
The interface seems outdated
Likelihood to Recommend
It's a good concept and fairly easy to use. I just think it could be updated a bit for 2025. It would also be beneficial to see what place in line you are to get your issue resolved. Sometimes it feels like your ticket didn't even get sent even though it did because you don't know how long it'll take
Case management solution: When an incident is raised, it passes through the appropriate team, and the resolutions are deployed through the portal, which can be adopted by any non-developer and is easy to deploy into the system. Once the deployment is successful, the incident is passed to the next team for validation.
Pros
Easy and basic configuration.
Use of Standard and Custom App.
Option for complex development for professionals.
Cons
Advanced workflow designs.
Linking or integration with other apps.
Customizing.
Likelihood to Recommend
When the solution involved complex workflows and integration with many 3rd party applications, we felt the Now app engine was less appropriate as it could not handle different integrations simultaneously for incident resolution and complaints management. This was well suited and managed by people who don't know basic coding.

We use ServiceNow App Engine to automate financial business problems. There are many problems, One of the problem is as follows, * Our AML(Anti money laundering) team needs to do a background check for every new client/vendor we start working with. Team used to get the detail of the client by manually visiting the background check tools such as Moody and D&B. We created a ServiceNow App Engine form so they if there is a need to do a background check then user needs to simply fill a ServiceNow form that will communicate with ServiceNow App Engine to hit the Moody and D&B API to get the results and create a consolidated report for the requestor.
Pros
API integration
Machine learning models
Smooth interaction with cloud platform such as Azure
Custom automation flows
Cons
Automation flow debug needs to be improved
Github integration to manage version control
Data warehousing
Likelihood to Recommend
It is best suited if there is a need to first gather the input data from the users and then use this data for further business process automation such as the anti-money laundering process which I have stated earlier. ServiceNow App Engine is not a good choice when you need to do something with real time dataset.
