With ServiceNow SAM, I can easily track and manage the software licenses across the entire lifecycle, from procurement to retirement. I can also leverage the powerful analytics and automation features to identify unused or underused software, reclaim licenses, and negotiate better contracts with vendors. ServiceNow SAM helps me save time and money while ensuring compliance with software policies and regulations.

What do you dislike most about this product?

One of the things I dislike about ServiceNow Software Asset Management product is that it can be very complex and difficult to configure. It requires a lot of customization and integration with other systems to achieve the desired results. The product also has a steep learning curve and can be overwhelming for new users. Additionally, the product can be expensive and may not provide enough value for some organizations.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Implementing a different software request portal that allows users to leverage software purchases and installations through a self-service interface.
