 We're back, this is Dave Vellante with Jeff Frick. This is SiliconANGLE Wikibon's continuous coverage. We're at Moscone for the Knowledge 14, hashtag no14 if you want to tweet, I'm at Dave Vellante. He's at Jeff Frick. We're here with Matt Schwimmer, who is the Vice President of Products at ServiceNow. Matt, welcome back to theCUBE. Cube alum, who last saw you in the fall, coming off a great keynote from Frank. Welcome. Thanks. It's great to be here. Excited to see you guys again. Big crowd here. Somebody commented to me, wow, this is a little different from last year. It's starting to get bigger and bigger. How many of these have you been to? This is my third. It's mind-blowing to see. Two years ago in New Orleans, it's about 1,200 people total. We're now about 6,700 in this event. The growth is just unprecedented from anything I've been. You're at the right place for it. Moscone can hold it. Give us the update. What's new since we last had you on in the fall? We were talking about the Dublin announcement. How's that going? What are you working on? We launched Dublin. It was November when I think we last talked and we were talking about Dublin. It's been a pretty exciting uptake. We focused a lot back then. It was about expanding from being a system of record to a system of engagement. We were focused a lot on how we expand from IT into the lines of business. We've really been focusing on extending into other enterprise services. We focused a lot on HR facilities. How IT could start enabling other parts of the business. Uptake's been pretty exciting. Is service now a platform, a system of record, or a platform for engagement? It's a great question. The answer is yes. It's both. It really is a system of record and engagement. We started out as a system of record. What we've really done is we focused a lot of our time and energy on how we get more of that consumer-like engagement experience. People don't just feel the dread of having to come in, record a ticket. It's much more about how am I engaging, what information do I need, and the engagement of what workflow I need to do behind that system of record to really drive fulfillment and drive satisfaction. What's happening within IT from your perspective? Historically, you've got the operational guys and they're managing the infrastructure. You've got the application guys liaising with the business. They've got the budget, they've got the juice, but the operational guys make it all happen. They know which wires to connect and knobs to turn. With DevOps coming in and the whole cloudification, as Frank was talking about, you're seeing programmable infrastructure. At the same time, you're seeing the lines of business really drive a lot of the spending. What's your take on what's going on there? How is IT morphing? There's two phenomena I've seen. What Frank was sitting on this morning, which was the apps and ops, was our historical structure inside of IT. That's really become this DevOps, as you referred to before, where the IT organization's got a lot more agile. Application development and operations are one and the same so that they can release a lot faster. The reason they've had to do that is because the lines of business have become more empowered. Frank introduced the term classification today, which is really about the lines of business have the spend now. It's not this centralized IT budget. The IT organizations had to morph themselves into being a much more proactive service provider embedded into the lines of business if they're going to stay relevant. It's not about just optimizing the spend of the infrastructure, but understanding what the lines of business need by embedding themselves as a business strategist with them and be able to get a lot more responsive and that DevOps responsiveness is how they address that as well. So can you really discern a difference between a service now customer in terms of how they're morphing, how fast they're transforming, what value they're bringing to the organization, and somebody who's not a service now customer. I'm a skeptic. I'm a prospect. Convince me that you can see a difference in your customer base. You know, it's funny. It's a great question. And when I look at prospects that we first go in and talk to, typically what they talk about is how much they spent on their last upgrade. They're talking about cost metrics and the fact that they're struggling to get, take advantage of whatever functionality from whatever vendor they're using because it's such a huge investment year to year just to spend on maintenance to upgrade and maintain their systems. When I go to our customers, and I've worked at a lot of other vendors in my past and I've seen this, when I go to talk to our customers, they're talking about how they're trying to manage the demand of all the different types of work that people want to put on the systems. When they expose service now to their customers, the customers come back and say, I want to do a system of record like that. I want to do engagement. You know, can you do that for me? What you've done for IT. So talk a little bit about how that, it's not necessarily a dedicated land and expand strategy, but it's kind of working that way because the internal IT people with the success they have with the app actually become your inside sales force and talk about how that kind of migrates through the organization and where are some of the next departments to fall and really buy into the service now execution. Yeah, you know, it's been a very conscious strategy of ours to not alienate the IT professional. You know, our goal is to sell to IT to empower IT to sell themselves as a solution provider to the business. So it's been a very conscious effort on our part to go that way and so what we see is we'll sell this service management message and we'll give them the exact, sometimes we'll give them the talk track of how you go to talk to the lines of business but most of the time it's been very viral where they understand how to apply it and they've proactively gone into HR, you know, HR, other lines of business to go and deliver this. HR was our first one we talked about when we met about six months ago on this. Right, right on the double release. The next big step for us has been facilities. Okay. And one of the things that we're going to be talking about here at the show is how we can do the same thing for facilities, field services as well to address those types of shared services. So the other big trend, right, is the app as king. Everything is driven from the app as you just said. It's a line of businesses that are built on the apps and the infrastructure's got to support the app. And at the same time, Fred always talks about the citizen developer and he wants regular business people like me to be able to build apps and, you know, how is, how are the IT folks accepting that and then how is that morphing with the app first from the line of business versus the IT people building the apps? I'll tell you, it's been a long desire of our customers to be able to segment out the work they do and be able to empower the different lines of business to build whatever they want to build. And to do that in a non-programmatic way, a big focus of ours in the last six months has been to be able to build an interface so that non-programmatically I can just drag and drop, create my forms to find my workflow and publish it. So what you're going to see in Eureka, we're talking a lot about how the lines of business can create their own service catalogs, create their own engagement interface and design their own forms of demand intake without any kind of IT assistance. So that's been a major focus and Fred's going to highlight a lot of that. I don't want to steal his thunder tomorrow. He's going to be showing a lot of that main stage. Yeah, you guys are showing a little leg on Eureka so we're excited about that. We'll learn more as the week goes on. But in thinking about sort of the new style of applications, you got HTML5, you guys announced, you know, mobile, you know, native mobile essentially last year. You got Microsoft Poland support on XP, which is kind of good news from a browser standpoint. How do those factors fit into the future of ServiceNow? You know, one of the big design criteria we have when we build is that applications always are inherently mobile, right? So everything we design is always built for web, tablet, mobile, phone, right? So that's kind of a critical design criteria that we have from the beginning. And you know, we're browser agnostic so whatever happens on your operating system is not really a concern to us. That's one of the nice things about being a native cloud-based solution. If you're on Safari, you're on Internet Explorer, you're on Firefox Chrome, whatever you want to do, ServiceNow is live and ready. What have you seen in terms of mobile uptake? Oh, it's been huge. It's been huge, especially there's some parts of IT that it takes a little while when people start thinking, when they think IT, they think, you know, someone's sitting at their desk, right? And it's really so much more when you start talking about people working at a data center, people working at kiosks, having to do remote deployments of field services. You work on a tablet, you work on a phone. Most of the time you want to get on your phone, see exactly where the, you know, use geolocation, find where the problem is, be able to quickly identify who else is online and collaborate with them. It's really picked up significantly. It's amazing, isn't it? I mean, I even watch, you know, we watch, who's watching theCUBE on their mobile, who's hitting our websites in the mobile, and you know, the last 12 months have just been an explosion and I'm sure you're seeing the same thing in your base. Yeah, no, absolutely. We introduced a new tablet interface last year and we thought of it as really a consumptive device, you know, for reporting and information intake. And really what we found is it's been a field service work productivity device. Okay, we'll give you the last word, we've got to jump. What should we be looking for in the near term, you know, throughout the rest of this year from you guys? So big focus on the service life cycle. Services taxonomy, Frank was hitting on it this morning about a much clear interface of how you design, visualize your services, and most importantly, how you track the cost and value of those services you deliver. So a lot of focus on financial management, a lot of focus on managing everything in IT in a services taxonomy. Love the focus on value, turning IT from a cost center into a profit center. You guys are at the heart of it. Matt, thanks very much for coming on theCUBE. Great to see you again. Pleasure, good to see you guys. Hi, keep it right there everybody. Jeff Frick and I will be right back with our next guest right after this. This is theCUBE, we're live from Moscone.
