ServiceNow Workflow is officially considered legacy technology, with new, OOB (out-of-the-box) workflows no longer shipped, especially starting in the Zurich release. While existing legacy workflows still work and can be edited in older instances, new automation should be built in Flow Designer.

Hello @guntisaitej ,

 

As per my understanding,

Both have almost the same functionality that is trigger on a condition specified and then perform activities in sequence.

Flow designer is having better UI as it is newly introduced by ServiceNow few releases back and is added keeping non-technical people in mind.
There are considerable number of bugs at the moment.

Workflow is traditional way of doing things in sequence, is more powerful, tested and trusted.
It's is used by and built for developers.

Having said that I would suggest using flow designer wherever possible.
