Hi everyone,

I'm currently trying to understand the different types of licenses available in ServiceNow and how they apply to various modules and users. I’d really appreciate some insights from the community on this.

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Barath P 

Client licensing in ServiceNow is often a bit of a black box—it’s not always easy to understand, and there’s rarely a straightforward answer.

From what I know, every role is technically licensed, but some roles like ITIL, Admin, and Approver are considered paid roles, while others may be free.

To get a clearer picture, you can review the roles available in ServiceNow. However, as a general rule, when discussing licensing, it's best to contact your ServiceNow account representative and discuss it directly with them.
