ServiceNow ITFM is a capable module — for organizations already running the full ServiceNow platform. For everyone else, it requires a platform purchase, implementation investment, and ongoing licensing that dwarfs the ITFM use case itself.
TekLedger is standalone. It ingests data from whatever systems you already use — ERP exports, SaaS invoices, cloud billing files, vendor spreadsheets — and produces board-ready output without requiring a platform migration.
