My experience doing multiple SN implementations that were led by SN or SN trained consultants required the customer to do the stories first in all of the cases I worked on SN would not do an OOTB demonstration prior to capturing all of the stories (requirements). The first implementation was to replicate the existing processes that were basically Remedy OOTB with minimal customizations. The SN customizations needed to allow the different Change types; normal, expedited, emergency, etc.. was extensive and took about 60 days to build and fully test prior to moving to the Production Instance.

Yes, SNOW is a Java-coded application and development is a quick cache refresh (ala the mid-tier and ALs). But Remedy is a true platform. I think alot of that is lost in these discussions. Most do not compare Apples to Apples, but Apples to Oranges. If ITSM is all thats needed then a OOTB SNOW instance is a preferred path. But I have too many colleagues who have been wined and dined by SNOW, and after the initial honeymoon, the scope of customizations crops up. Money is spent to have SNOW act like its predecessor. And some do feel 'buyers remorse'. Gartner even elludes to this with a mention of price creep. As for Remedy and BMC, as a whole, I think with SmartIT and Innovation Studio, they are on track to provide the best of both worlds. I have not been overly excited with the SNOW product, from what I see. At least OOTB.

My take is he’s looking for this so he can counter the promises made by SNOW sales folks of how easy it is to switch.

I’d like to get some honest perspectives as to your opinions, migration experiences, customer service, pricing, level of effort to from a project perspective to make the jump assuming full ITSM. The spectre of SNOW has been seen so I’m gathering information. Thanks in advance.
