Apptio is now available in the ServiceNow Store.
This integration with ServiceNow provides users with a near real-time view into their organization's actual technology cost structure. By combining operational data from ServiceNow with IT cost modeling software from Apptio, technology leaders are able to make smarter investment decisions more quickly.
In today's fast-moving marketplace, business leaders need to make smart bets and maximize investments. Making quick decisions based on this data requires navigating the most complicated challenges in IT financial management: understanding the complete topology and costs of IT investments and measuring the return on those investments. Apptio has solved this problem by leveraging ServiceNow's ability to auto-discover changes in IT assets and their interconnected relationships. This information allows Apptio to create detailed, accurate cost models which automatically update at the speed of business changes. This is the level of speed, confidence, and fidelity Apptio and ServiceNow's joint customers have been asking for.
"Apptio's mission is to help our customers tackle the mounting challenges they face by empowering them with trusted information to make decisions at the pace that modern business demands," said Scott Chancellor, CPO and Technology Officer at Apptio. "This new integration with ServiceNow is a natural extension of that mission and delivers unprecedented transparency into organizations' IT costs."
Apptio's ServiceNow connectors include seven connectors bringing information into Apptio and a new connector publishing data back to ServiceNow dashboards and are available as a certified solution in the ServiceNow Store. The ingress connectors map ServiceNow data sets directly into ApptioOne, which allows costs to be modeled based on consumptive data, creating a trustworthy, timely and accurate total cost of ownership. The egress connector then pushes this defensible application TCO data from Apptio back into native ServiceNow dashboards, providing visibility to stakeholders across the business. This new level of bi-directional integration enables users to not only see their operational data and metrics for top applications, but also the fully burdened cost structure with continuous updates.
