platform, one price — no hidden modules
Halo Certified Partner in both UK & US who is also ServiceNow Certified — meaning we truly understand your current platform and where you're going
ServiceNow is powerful — but for many organisations it has become expensive, complex to manage, and heavily reliant on costly consultants. As renewal costs climb and modular pricing fragments budgets, more IT leaders are asking: "Is there a smarter way?"
Halo ITSM delivers everything you need in a single, all-inclusive platform at a fraction of the cost — without sacrificing capability, compliance, or ambition.
A straightforward look at how the two platforms compare on the things that matter most to your business.

Every feature. Every user. One price. Here's what that really means for your organisation.
No per-module fees. No bolt-on surprises at renewal. You get the entire Halo platform — every capability, every update — for a single predictable monthly cost. Budgeting becomes simple again.
Modular pricing is the single biggest barrier to Enterprise Service Management. With Halo, expanding into HR, Finance, or Facilities costs nothing extra — removing the blockers to true ESM at scale.
Industry-leading AI — auto-classification, smart summarisation, virtual agents, predictive analytics — is built into every Halo licence. Not an upgrade tier. Not an add-on. Included.
Unlike ServiceNow's named-user-only model, Halo supports concurrent licensing — ideal for shift-based or shared-desk environments where you need maximum flexibility without overpaying.
Need to keep data on your own infrastructure? Or host it globally across AWS regions? Halo supports both — giving regulated industries and global enterprises the deployment options ServiceNow simply can't match.
Halo's intuitive, low-code configuration means implementations that typically take 6–12 months on ServiceNow can be live in weeks — with far lower ongoing support overheads.
Every member of the Allied ESM team comes from the ServiceNow ecosystem. We've spent years implementing, optimising, and managing ServiceNow environments — so we know exactly where organisations feel the pain, and precisely what it takes to move on from it.
When you work with Allied ESM, you're not working with a team that has simply learned Halo. You're working with ServiceNow practitioners who understand your current platform inside-out, can translate your existing processes, and have the Halo expertise to rebuild them better.
Speak to Our TeamOur team holds active ServiceNow certifications — we know what you're running, how it works, and what replacing it actually involves.
As a Halo Elite Partner, our certifications run deep. We implement, configure, and manage Halo environments every day — delivering faster, smoother projects.
Our entire company grew out of ServiceNow. That context means better migration planning, fewer surprises, and a team that speaks your language from day one.
No other partner can give you an objective, informed view across both platforms. We'll tell you what you'll gain, what to plan for, and how to protect your investment.

That combination doesn't exist anywhere else. It means when Allied ESM advises you on moving from ServiceNow to Halo, you're getting counsel from someone who has mastered both platforms at the highest possible level.
A structured, low-risk approach built on years of ServiceNow experience.
We start by understanding your existing ServiceNow configuration — workflows, integrations, customisations, and data. Our ServiceNow expertise means we speak your language from day one.
We design your Halo environment to match — and improve — your existing processes. Where ServiceNow required complex scripting, Halo often delivers the same outcome with simple configuration.
We handle the migration of your historical data and reconnect your integrations — from Active Directory and Azure to monitoring tools and third-party applications.
Our dedicated Change & Adoption practice ensures your agents and end-users are confident on day one. We don't just deploy the technology — we bring your people with you.
We go live with you — not just hand over documentation. Our managed services team is available post-launch to optimise, expand, and support your Halo environment long term.
Talk to the only team certified in both platforms. We'll give you an honest assessment of what switching from ServiceNow to Halo would mean for your organisation — no pressure, just expertise.
