ServiceNow Delivers Mobile First, Everyday Work for the Enterprise

New Native Capabilities Deliver Consumer-Like Mobile Experiences for
Work

SANTA CLARA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW), Forbes’ No. 1 World’s Most Innovative Company in
2018, today enhanced the Now Platform with native mobile enterprise
capabilities in the Madrid Release, enabling customers to make everyday
work for their employees mobile first and mobile friendly. Now you can
route requests and fix issues on the go and get help where you are, all
with a thumb swipe on your phone.


The native mobile capabilities are part of more than 600 new innovations
in the Now Platform Madrid Release that help customers accelerate
digital transformation by unlocking productivity and delivering mobile
experiences across ServiceNow’s IT, employee and customer workflows.
These workflows can now easily use powerful, native mobile apps,
including the company’s flagship IT
Service Management
 (ITSM) and Field
Service Management
products.

Anyone can create new, native mobile apps quickly and easily in a
“no-code” environment. Rather than simply make a desktop experience
mobile, the Now Platform Madrid release delivers mobile-first
experiences that dramatically simplify common workflows for agents such
as looking up information, updating incidents, and even working offline.

“Everyday work is the new killer mobile app,” said CJ Desai,
ServiceNow’s chief product officer. “We’re making it simple and easy to
make work mobile first and mobile friendly. With the Now Platform Madrid
Release, IT and Customer Service employees can get meaningful work done
with a thumb swipe. This is just the beginning; we’ll continue to roll
out mobile capabilities across the enterprise, so that using mobile in
your work life is as easy as using mobile in your personal life.”

Native apps, at scale.

By building native mobile capabilities into the Now Platform, ServiceNow
is giving its customers the power to make any digital workflow mobile
first. Consumer-like mobile experiences can now replace manual
processes, repetitive routine work tasks and complex systems. Native
mobile experiences can take advantage of built-in phone features such as
camera and maps, enabling employees to use at work the same mobile
features they enjoy in their personal lives.

Get work done, anywhere.

With the Now Platform Madrid Release, customers can manage their
workflows anytime, anywhere – from fixing a laptop to resolving a P1
customer issue.

With these new mobile innovations, customers can:

  • Route requests and fix issues on the go. A new, out-of-the-box
    mobile app lets IT quickly route requests for action wherever they
    might be. Plus, a new mobile app for field service lets employees fix
    simple issues with a swipe of their thumb so they can focus on solving
    more complex problems.
  • Get help where you are, on any device. The Now Platform Madrid
    Release empowers customers to provide support to employees wherever
    they are: mobile, web, chat or third-party interfaces like Workplace
    by Facebook, Slack and Microsoft Teams. Employees can easily open a
    support ticket from the app and device of their choice.
  • Build custom apps fast. The new ServiceNow Mobile Studio lets
    anyone build and deploy native iOS and Android mobile apps using
    no-code tools and a drag-and-drop interface. Employees can use apps
    with read and write capabilities anywhere, even when they’re offline.
    For example, customers can build asset management apps that leverage
    the camera and facilities apps that use GPS.

ServiceNow will continue to enhance the Now Platform’s native mobile
capabilities in future releases.

Digital transformation, delivered.

Other innovations in the Now Platform Madrid Release enable companies to
manage their digital transformation in faster, more agile ways. For
example, new capabilities include:

  • Get deeper insights sooner. Agent Workspace is a new command
    center for prioritizing work and taking action. Activity streams keep
    the latest updates in view and machine learning surfaces similar
    incidents. Customer service and IT agents have the context they need
    to resolve issues quickly from a single dashboard.
  • Find and fix service performance issues faster. Alert
    Intelligence, a new IT Operations Management capability, helps IT
    operators focus on what matters most with prioritized alerts,
    including deep insights about past incidents, similar and repeat
    alerts, Knowledge Base articles and metrics. IT Operations teams can
    quickly get to the root cause of a service performance issue or
    an outage, collaborate with different teams and launch remediation
    workflows from the same console.
  • Update digital services at scale. To help IT make
    changes to digital services more effectively, ServiceNow is delivering
    change automation enhancements to ITSM. IT can integrate change with
    DevOps using out-of-the-box REST APIs, automate manual approval
    processes and provide clear audit trails for better governance.
  • Go from siloed development to top-down alignment. The Portfolio
    Scaled Agile Framework lets companies capture, analyze and approve new
    initiatives – allowing organizations to align enterprise strategy to
    portfolio execution.
