In this episode of Syncing with ServiceNow, host Fred Reynolds and Kristin McDonald dive into Gartner’s latest recognition of ServiceNow as a Leader in Business Orchestration Automation Technologies (BOAT). They explore how ServiceNow’s orchestration engine, data unification, and AI capabilities have evolved from early workflow automation to today’s powerful, interconnected platform.

Fred and Kristin discuss the growing role of AI agents, the impact of workflow data fabric and zero-copy connectors, and how organizations can leverage ServiceNow’s platform to break down silos, streamline business processes, and achieve meaningful outcomes.

Tune in to hear how ServiceNow continues to shape the future of business automation and what lies ahead for organizations embracing AI and orchestration-driven transformation.

Host Andy Whiteside is joined by Fred Reynolds and Kristen McDonald to unpack how to get real outcomes from ServiceNow, not just another go-live. The crew recaps Gartner’s recognition across six tech workflow segments, then dives into where AI delivers value today and what foundations you need in place first.

In this episode:

• Why many ServiceNow orgs stall: it’s not the code, it’s the implementation
• The fix: start with strategic goals, then a focused micro assessment
• AI in IT Operations: cut noise, correlate faster, resolve quicker
• ITSM with agents: when to use automation vs true AI
• Help desk uplift: one agent operating like many through assistive AI
• Software Asset Management: audit readiness, license savings, Now Assist
• SPM for AI delivery: track ideas to outcomes inside the same platform
• Security use cases: AI-powered vulnerability exposure and proactive defense
• CSDM v5 and why strong CMDB hygiene still matters

Takeaway: ServiceNow is a platform, not a point tool. Nail the basics, then layer AI to move from reactive support to proactive, measurable value.
