The pandemic shifted us all online, whether we wanted to or not. It forced the public sector to adapt more than most industries, requiring citizens to interact digitally with governments to receive the health and financial support available to them. Digital technology promises to elevate government customer experience (CX) by scaling services, cutting wait times, and reducing costs.
Picture this: A critical business service is offline. Instead of panicking, you’re calm yet concerned. You retrieve data about the service in question and instantly see exactly which infrastructure components the service depends on, as well as their statuses. You quickly engage IT operators to address the issue and notify the line-of-business lead with an estimated time for its resolution. This scenario doesn’t have to be an impossible dream.
The majority (83%) of employees across industries want their jobs to remain hybrid, Accenture reports. Yet nearly 50% of CIOs feel their cybersecurity initiatives aren’t keeping pace with their digital transformation efforts, according to research by ServiceNow and ThoughtLab. Neither are their cybersecurity budgets. Combining artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) for IT operations (AIOps) can help.
The pressures that converged upon businesses during the pandemic forced the rapid evolution of both the customer experience (CX) and employee experience (EX). In that make-it-or-go-under environment, many of those that survived came out ahead in terms of CX and EX. Now we face the next hurdle: strong macroeconomic headwinds. Inflation and the threat of a recession are forcing businesses to prove their resilience once again.
The promise of software as a service (SaaS) has always been value-based pricing. Rather than owning a suite of products they might not need, customers can choose only the services they do need to drive specific outcomes for their businesses. From day one, SaaS was about value. More often than not, products in the enterprise software space fail to live up to this ideal. In light of that, we came up with a crazy idea to help customers accelerate time to value. The idea clearly struck a chord.
Have you heard the tale about the blind men and the elephant? A group of blind men who’ve never seen an elephant touch different parts of the animal and try to figure out what it is.
Agencies have taken a siloed approach to deploying technology solutions to meet government digitization and modernization goals. Although this allows them to roll out rich digital experiences for citizens and employees, it’s not a scalable method—nor is it effective in terms of cost and resources. Like many agencies, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) had several key platforms in place to drive its digitization efforts, but the management of these platforms lacked centralization.
Data Privacy Day is an international event observed on Jan. 28 in the United States, Canada, Nigeria, Israel, and 47 European countries. It’s a time to raise awareness about data protection best practices. At ServiceNow, one day is not enough to focus on data privacy. We prioritize protecting personally identifiable information (PII) for organizations and individuals every day of the year. One of the best ways to do that is through data anonymization.
A volatile economy, a disrupted supply chain, a widespread talent shortage, and environmental challenges have left many business leaders wondering how to move forward. In this environment, change is the only constant. Navigating these headwinds requires evolving your relationship with global uncertainty and seeing the creative opportunities it presents. ServiceNow’s Workflow special report, From adversity to advantage, offers an actionable framework for making this essential pivot.
Ever heard of a ServiceNow-powered kegerator? When you have a highly intuitive and powerful platform, it’s hard not to get creative with it.

With a global software developer shortage, it’s key for companies to find ways for their employees to build workflows without having prior coding knowledge.
