However, creating these experiences for mobile is different than building for desktop. You need to think about the form factor and usability of the device to optimize for mobile users’ behavior and expectations. This document is meant to guide ServiceNow mobile app creators on using best practice mobile design and product principles to create consumer grade mobile experiences. 2 How to use this document This document is organized into sections focusing on different aspects of mobile app configuration. It is not meant to be read cover-to-cover, but looked at individual sections for tips, recommendations, and best practices. As you configure and finalize your apps, refer back to the sections of this document to align with how our designers and product managers optimize the ServiceNow platform for the Now Mobile, Agent, and Onboarding apps. In addition to this document, reviewing the pre-configured apps created by ServiceNow’s BUs is recommended before creating from scratch. 3 Native mobile clients ServiceNow platform supports 3 Native clients in the store. All the apps have the same capabilities, but the app name gives indication on the persona and usage. ServiceNow’s approach to app design aligns with how users work in consumer mobile apps. Each app specializes in a specific area of the platform. These specialized apps give your users the best experience, providing them with what they need in that moment. The idea is to keep each app focused on a specific set of tasks to facilitate quicker interactions. When building custom apps, consider the use case and user persona. Understanding that will guide you on the best native client to place your app configurations.

Configure these tabs to navigate to applet launchers or an applet Work Inventory Articles Notification Settings within your mobile applications. The navigation bar contains a Settings and Notification tabs. Removing these tabs is possible, but prevents your users from accessing important information and features of the app. Consider changing the order in which they appear in the navigation bar rather than removing them. 4 1 Naming conventions Give your navigation tabs a descriptive name that provides context. Avoid generic names like “Home” or “Apps”. Note the limited space available for titles in the navigation bar. When testing your application, watch for titles that do not completely display on the navigation bar. The navigation bar can display up to five icons. If you have added more than five, a “More” icon is added to display the additional icons in a list. Try to limit your navigation bar to five icons to avoid requiring your users to take this additional step. Make sure tab bar icons are visually consistent and the text length is balanced. 4 2 Ordering Ordering should be determined by level of importance top to bottom and left to right.

  • Virtualwisdom App-Centric Hybrid IT Infrastructure Management Contents
    VirtualWisdom App-centric Hybrid IT Infrastructure Management Contents Introduction 3 Operational Vulnerability 4 It’s Not Getting Easier 5 Expertise Required 6 What Expertise Is Required? 7 Traditional Monitoring Tools Don’t Cut It 9 VirtualWisdom Understands 10 Getting a Handle on Infrastructure 11 Getting a Handle on Applications 12 The Human Factor 13 VirtualWisdom Understands 14 HYBRID IT TECH BRIEF | BACK TO TOC | 2 Introduction Slow application performance and application outages cost money. As organizations have become more dependent on IT, the cost of outages has risen. Reducing the number of outages requires identifying their cause before the business is impacted. This is exactly what VirtualWisdom App-centric Hybrid IT Infrastructure Management excels at. Today, the cost of downtime for a single server can be punitive. According to Statista, 24 percent of respondents worldwide reported the average hourly downtime cost of their servers as being between $300,000 - $400,000, with more than 50 percent of respondents reporting costs in higher brackets. These statistics echo those released by Gartner, who cited $5,600 per minute as the cost of downtime: $5,600 per minute is $336,000 per hour. In today’s highly consolidated data centers, multiple individual virtualized hosts typically share a common infrastructure. A failure in any component of that infrastructure could result in multiple virtualized host failures. While it’s difficult to determine how much more a multiple-server outage would cost a given organization over a single server outage, the answer is certainly more than a single server outage would cost, and those costs are already far too high.

But there’s caution in the investor community right now as confusion about transitory inflation and higher interest rates looms. ServiceNow also suffers from perfection syndrome and elevated expectations. The company has seen that the slightest misstep, or not beating earnings by a wide enough margin, can cause mini freakouts from the investor community. So it has architected a financial and communications model that allows it to marginally beat expectations and raise its outlook on a continuing basis. Regardless, ServiceNow appears to be on a track to vie for what its CEO Bill McDermott refers to as the next great enterprise software company. Wait, we thought that Marc Benioff had taken that crown already… In this Breaking Analysis we’ll dig into ServiceNow, one of the companies we began following almost ten years ago, and provide some thoughts on ServiceNow’s march to $15B by 2026.
