ServiceNow IT support prides itself on providing world-class support services for employees. Because of the company’s hypergrowth, our previous model of 24/7 IT support couldn’t scale. We needed a better way to deal with the exponential increase in support case volume while maintaining a lean IT support team that continues to deliver exceptional support services. Here are four changes we’re undertaking to meet this challenge.
The Now at Work 2021 Digital Experience provided a forum for companies around the world to demonstrate how they’re using the Now Platform, boosted by the Rome release, to bring about digital transformation. ServiceNow helped businesses not only cope with the pandemic, but also build more innovative, nimble organizations for the future.
The ServiceNow product team had a clear goal: Reimagine the employee experience on the Now Platform. That meant designing a solution that would deliver a unified and proactive experience personalized for each user. The team started by talking with customers around the world—of all sizes and across many industries. They also turned to the ServiceNow IT team. IT provided firsthand knowledge of what it means to deliver an exceptional employee experience on the platform.

When ServiceNow acquired an AI search technology company in 2020, we were thrilled to see an immediate return.
When a customer service agent picks up a phone or opens an email or text, there's usually a stressed or upset customer on the other end. A package didn’t arrive. A bill contained incorrect charges. A server crashed, and no one can access their data. This is a crucial moment that can make or break relationships—as can any customer interaction with a company, from buying a product to asking for help. It can even happen while the agent engages with other teams to resolve an issue.

Sharath Lagisetty, senior principal product manager for Customer Workflows at ServiceNow, co-authored this blog. As companies engage with different customers and partners via digital channels, it’s critical to establish a rich understanding of each entity and their relationships, both to the company and to each other. The latest release of ServiceNow® Customer Service Management extends Customer Data Models to support multilevel relationships.
Field service management covers a lot of areas, from installing and maintaining field equipment to scheduling, dispatching, and labor tracking. Across those myriad areas are numerous challenges: scheduling conflicts, miscommunications, workforce changes, customer dissatisfaction, poor first-time fix rates, lack of asset visibility, and more. But field service management is vital to successful business operations. Here are three ways ServiceNow helps companies improve their field service operations.
This month marks my 10-year anniversary with ServiceNow. Believe me, I never thought I’d spend a third of my working life at the same company. But not one moment has been dull. Every other year feels like I’m working at a different company—because we keep transforming and innovating. And that’s because of our customers. Despite how we’ve grown, our goal has never changed: We want to make the world of work better for everyone.
