ServiceNow’s 6,900 customers have pretty big expectations of what ServiceNow needs to deliver to help them achieve their business goals—from more engaging employee experiences to boosted customer loyalty and increased agility, productivity, and efficiency. We aim to meet those expectations by practicing what we preach.

Have you considered leveraging cloud-based software solutions to improve your customer service management? Workflow automation software can elevate customer experiences by improving response times. If you’re looking for a way to streamline communication between all parties, you need a centralized hub for project implementation and delivery. 58% of American consumers are prepared to switch companies because of poor customer service.

The pandemic has accelerated the digital imperative across all industries. At ServiceNow, our purpose is to make the world of work, work better for people. That purpose has never been clearer as we help our customers solve some of the most pressing challenges of the 21st century—from talent shortages to continuing global vaccination efforts—and everything in between.

During the pandemic, companies that weren’t digitally enabled had great difficulty dealing with the massive disruption that hit them overnight. For me, this reinforced the lesson that great customer experience goes beyond simply boosting engagement or providing multiple touch points. Instead, customer-centric companies outperform by realigning operations and processes for better customer outcomes.

Employees and customers want seamless experiences wherever work happens—in an office, a hospital, a manufacturing floor, at home, or on the go. To survive in the new world of hybrid work, companies must embrace digital platforms that empower their most important stakeholders. That’s why I’m thrilled to announce the Now Platform® Rome release, which is generally available to customers starting today.

Based on a 1973 book by William Goldman, the film became a cult classic. A story of true love, giants, pirates and miracles – it is loved by IT geeks all around the world. So many memorable quotations, and so many references to use when selecting a new service desk. It would be rude not to quote some.
