Challenges in Hiring ServiceNow Support Team
Talking to clients, Fidel sees that many clients have similar issues or requirements like as follows:
1. Majority of ServiceNow clients face resource or expertise crunch.
ServiceNow professional services fees are costly and the professionals are in shortage. Hence while there are requirements, it takes weeks and months to find the right partner, check their consultant availability and then implement.
2. Lack of domain expertise
The customers come from different domains and have unique requirements. Many big consulting firms claim that they have domain consultants and expertise. But the fact is that the retail or insurance in Japan is different than that in US and on top of that each company has different internal process.
3. Configuration, Fine-Tuning and Ongoing Support
In some cases, the clients have already started using ServiceNow but unable to maximize the usage or align it to the internal process. This is not a new development project but there is an ongoing support requirement. Since this is not a new development, not many vendors are not interested to support.
4. Migration from legacy to ServiceNow
Many clients are also considering moving from legacy software for workflow or incident management and ServiceNow is a very good cloud based alternative. In such cases, moving on to ServiceNow with minimum disruption, migrating the entire data and then training to users all is required.
Fidel works with clients on all such requirements and supports them on various fronts.
- Fidel understands that each client has unique requirements and that they know their business or domain best. Fidel brings it’s ServiceNow expertise and helps customers leverage the power of ServiceNow.
