ServiceNow’s Gekkobrain Acquisition

Recently, ServiceNow announced its acquisition of Denmark-based Gekkobrain. Founded in 2016, Gekkobrain is a custom code adaptation tool that finds, analyzes, highlights, and estimates issues in custom code and modules prior to generating a project plan with recommended sprints. The acquisition will extend the power of ServiceNow Creator Workflows and App Engine to assist organizations with identifying and understanding custom code in ERP deployments and business processes.

With Gekkobrain, ServiceNow will be able to extend Creator Workflows and App Engine capabilities to allow organizations to identify and understand custom code in their ERP deployments and the business processes they support. The expansion of the low-code capabilities of App Engine will help organizations rapidly and cost-effectively modernize their ERP systems by seamlessly identifying, automating, and customizing workflows to reduce the risk and cost traditionally associated with ERP software migrations. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.

ServiceNow also announced the expansion of its partnership with KPMG to deliver environmental, social, and governance (ESG) focused solutions and services that extend KPMG offerings and help companies to revolutionize risk management, resilience processes, and operations. KPMG is ServiceNow’s lead launch and design partner for their new integrated ESG solution and will also work with ServiceNow to help companies provide visibility and transparency across ESG programs and initiatives.
