As a key addition to the AIOps product in ServiceNow, the new AIOps Experience app seeks to transform the user's experience with IT Operations Management (ITOM) Health. With capabilities such as Express List, Integrations Launchpad, and AIOps Dashboards, this app has greatly enhanced the user experience within the Service Operations Workspace.

In this blog post, we will explore the remarkable features of AIOps Dashboards.

Discovering AIOps Dashboards

Chances are that your organization has a plethora of custom dashboards designed to gauge the effectiveness and value of ServiceNow IT Operations Management. Some might not even be within the ServiceNow ecosystem, requiring alternative reporting tools. If this scenario resonates with you, managing and sustaining these dashboards seems like a difficult task. The AIOps dashboards are here to help you overcome this challenge.

Leveraging performance analytics, the AIOps Dashboards deliver certified out-of-the-box (OOTB) dashboards for ITOM users in the Service Operations Workspace. These dashboards facilitate better decision-making, optimal resource allocation, showcase ROI and value realization through ServiceNow, and enhance efficiency in handling intricate technology environments.

The AIOps Dashboards comprise three types of dashboards:

  • Operational
  • Value Realization
  • Technology

These dashboards offer versatile filtering options and can be tailored to your requirements. However, the default dashboards are impressive in themselves, as will be demonstrated in the latter part of this blog post.
