Qlik and ServiceNow join forces to strengthen ai-driven enterprise workflows.

Qlik and ServiceNow join forces to strengthen ai-driven enterprise workflows. As part of this initiative, Qlik has made a strategic tie-up with ServiceNow to facilitate the inclusion of trusted enterprise context within AI-based workflows that help enterprises make quick decisions. With this tie-up, Qlik intends to narrow the gap that exists between insights obtained from data and workflows through the use of ServiceNow's Workflow Data Fabric and Qlik's analytics, integration, and artificial intelligence offerings. Through this partnership, enterprises will be able to augment their automated workflows and AI agents with context to allow systems to detect patterns, insights, and recommended courses of action. The collaboration would be especially relevant for those organizations seeking to integrate AI on an organizational level through automation since it will allow making automation-based decisions using reliable and enterprise-class data and not limited to certain data pools. As the analytics solution provider, Qlik aims to help automate and speed up decisions made in various areas, such as IT support, customer services, and other operations by bringing analytics closer to operations. This means that contextual AI would become the next step for enterprises.

TrustCloud launches ServiceNow app for AI-native continuous control monitoring

TrustCloud has launched a native application in the ServiceNow Store, offering continuous control monitoring for enterprise governance, risk and compliance customers. The application syncs validated control signals with ServiceNow IRM, SecOps and CMDB, integrating security and risk operations. The solution addresses limitations of point-in-time manual GRC workflows by enabling continuous testing across applications, infrastructure and vendors at enterprise scale. TrustCloud's AI-native agents analyse structured and unstructured data from cloud and on-premises environments, automating technical, documentation and process control testing. Early customers report significant improvements: one pharmaceutical company increased application assessment throughput from 20 to 200–300 apps annually with the same resources. The application is available now through the ServiceNow Store, following ServiceNow's strategic investment in TrustCloud in 2025.

Salesforce's Agentforce IT Service snags 5 ServiceNow customers as ITSM rivalry heats up

Salesforce and ServiceNow are clashing over the future of IT service management, with Salesforce CEO Mark Benioff claiming his six-month-old Agentforce IT Service has won five customers from ServiceNow. ServiceNow CEO Bill McDermott disputed the claim, saying four remain customers and one represented just $42,000 in revenue against ServiceNow's $13.2 billion annual total. ServiceNow controls 40 per cent of the ITSM market with 8,600 customers, whilst Salesforce's product has 200 signups. However, analysts suggest this isn't a direct competition. ServiceNow emphasises control and orchestration with 22 years of workflow expertise, whilst Salesforce targets engagement through tools like Slack, meeting users where they work. Salesforce sees opportunity in the broader $50 billion market, particularly amongst midmarket and SMB customers where it already has relationships through CRM and cloud platforms.
