ServiceNow is a powerful platform designed to improve IT service management and business workflows, but not all implementations lead to a seamless user experience. When ServiceNow implementations fail to meet user expectations, adoption rates drop, and the platform’s value is diminished.

Common Reasons Why ServiceNow Implementations Fall Short

  1. Lack of User-Centric Design
    If workflows and interfaces are not designed with end-users in mind, employees may find the platform cumbersome and difficult to navigate.

  2. Insufficient Training and Change Management
    Users need proper training and support to fully adopt new systems. A lack of effective change management often leads to resistance and underutilisation.

  3. Over-Complicated or Rigid Workflows
    ServiceNow should simplify business processes, not complicate them. Poorly designed workflows can frustrate users and reduce efficiency.

  4. Failure to Customise and Optimise
    A one-size-fits-all approach rarely works. ServiceNow should be tailored to match business needs, ensuring a smooth and intuitive experience.

  5. Lack of Continuous Improvement
    Implementations should not be treated as one-time projects. Regular feedback loops, system enhancements, and UX optimisations ensure a better experience over time.
