Step-By-Step Getting Started

Make sure you follow the following steps to ensure Performance Analytics is activated in your instance, is configured to collect data, and is presenting data for you to analyze!

Step 1: Activate

Every ServiceNow instance comes provisioned with Complimentary Performance Analytics for Incident Management — a limited subset of Performance Analytics features and content — for analyzing only the Incident Management process. Activating your Performance Analytics license will remove these restrictions. Click here to start.

Step 2: Configure

You've successfully activated your unlimited version of Performance Analytics and enabled the out-of-the-box content you can use to start visualizing process- and service-related data in your ServiceNow instance!   Now it's time to roll up our sleeves and put Performance Analytics to work for you. Click here to start.

Step 3: Analyze

Now comes the exciting part! You've configured your data sources in Performance Analytics, and you have successfully collected the data.   The data are now ready to be analyzed through the widgets and dashboards that come with Performance Analytics. This article will explain some of the common visualizations available with the out-of-the-box content and also interpret some of the different curves you might see.
