ServiceNow acquire Logik.ai in a bid to expand its growing CRM footprint globally

Tahawul Tech08-04-2025
ServiceNow has announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Logik.ai, an industry leader with a modern, AI‑powered, and composable Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ) solution. Logik.ai's best‑in‑class capabilities for sales and commerce will expand ServiceNow's growing CRM footprint and empower sales organizations to close deals faster, boost productivity levels, and achieve greater efficiency.
The acquisition will accelerate ServiceNow's momentum in Sales and Order Management (SOM), the critical process that governs the commercial lifecycle from opportunity management, quoting, and order placement, through fulfillment and delivery, to renewals and expansions.
Companies in every industry struggle with ineffective sales processes due to complex product configurations, pricing inconsistencies, and error‑prone manual quoting. Sales teams waste valuable time navigating spreadsheets, outdated pricing models, and disconnected approval workflows, leading to delayed deals, lost revenue opportunities, and frustrated customers. This is especially evident in industries such as manufacturing, high tech, and medical device sales, where the complexities of products and services demand extreme precision and agility.
Logik.ai integrates AI into its modern CPQ solution to accelerate the entire transaction management cycle through an advanced rules engine that solves for speed, simplicity, and scale while powering a consumer‑grade experience for both sellers and buyers. ServiceNow CRM & Industry Workflows, already ServiceNow's fastest‑growing business, plus Logik.ai's best‑in‑class capabilities for AI‑powered selling, will drive new levels of performance in sales and commerce for customers.
'ServiceNow is advancing our commitment to offer robust, deeply connected CRM tools. The CPQ space is evolving, and Logik.ai is leading the way to a simpler, AI‑powered selling experience across channels. By adding Logik.ai's industry‑leading sales and commerce solution to our CRM offering, ServiceNow will further enhance our capability to sell, fulfill, and service on a single platform. It's about delivering a fundamentally different vision and approach to traditional CRM and CPQ offerings — one that addresses the real pain points in connecting end‑to‑end customer experiences,' said John Ball, EVP and GM of CRM & Industry Workflows at ServiceNow.
'Customers want consumer‑grade experiences that are simple, scalable, fast, and accurate so they can focus on what matters most: closing deals, enabling customer success, and driving expansion opportunities. Logik.ai's next generation technology will enable us to rapidly deliver that unique value. When combined with our powerful AI platform for business transformation, we will redefine what a leading CRM solution can do,' continued Ball.
'We invested early in innovations like AI and consumer‑grade experiences that are re‑writing how products of any complexity are sold. ServiceNow CRM is built for the era of AI, making it the perfect partner to continue that momentum,' said Christopher Shutts, CEO and cofounder of Logik.ai. 'Businesses are frustrated by solutions that force them into slow and cumbersome experiences that weigh down sales productivity. Logik.ai's transformative solution combined with ServiceNow's innovative, AI‑fueled platform ensures speed and efficiency through the full sales lifecycle from lead and opportunity through to fulfillment, renewal, and upsell. We look forward to becoming part of ServiceNow to help customers achieve greater simplicity and scale across the entire CRM process.'
Make sales cycles seamless with smarter CPQ
Logik.ai offers seamless experiences for stakeholders across a multitude of sales workflows, including direct sales, partner, direct‑to‑business, consumer self‑service, and more. Logik.ai's flexible, composable solution is designed for speed and handling large volumes of users and quote lines at scale, and the company is driving success for brands such as Keysight, Oldcastle Infrastructure, Lamons, CORT, and more.
Logik.ai, which already integrates with nearly 50 technology partners, including ServiceNow, will seamlessly connect with ServiceNow's Customer Service Management and Sales and Order Management solutions to streamline complex selling processes and unlock more efficient self‑service capabilities for customers and partners. This advancement will be a natural step forward in ServiceNow's CRM strategy, building on core strengths of connecting functional teams and powering simple, efficient workflows.
ServiceNow's CRM offering addresses the full customer lifecycle, from sales and service in the front office, to order management and fulfillment to renewals and upsells. The company's recently announced Yokohama platform release further strengthens its CRM & Industry Workflows business with capabilities like self service commerce portals, turnkey CCaaS integrations, and AI agents designed specifically for CRM use cases. These include CSM triage agents for customer service cases, as well as network test and repair AI agents, all designed to reduce friction and unify the customer experience on a single platform.
An innovator in the customer service and support market since 2016, ServiceNow transforms customer experiences through the power of the ServiceNow Platform, which connects people, data, and systems organization‑wide to provide frictionless customer service and sales, from first contact to resolution.

ServiceNow Reveals Drop in AI Maturity Across EMEA

Home » Tech Value Chain » Global Brands » ServiceNow Reveals Drop in AI Maturity Across EMEA ServiceNow, the AI platform for business transformation, has released its latest Enterprise AI Maturity Index in partnership with Oxford Economics. The report revealed a surprising trend across Europe and the Middle East. Despite growing AI investment, the region's average AI maturity score dropped by 10 points year over year. Enterprises are struggling to keep up with rapid innovation. Many are finding it difficult to turn AI ambitions into scalable, effective solutions. The index evaluates five components: leadership and strategy, workflows, talent, governance, and investment. Together, these factors provide a full picture of an organisation's readiness to scale AI. Now in its second year, the global report includes insights from nearly 4,500 respondents worldwide. Of those, 1,950 were from nine EMEA markets, including the UAE and Saudi Arabia. ServiceNow reported that agentic AI is driving experimentation in the region. However, the pace of innovation is outpacing organisations' ability to implement AI in a structured, governed way. As a result, the region's average AI maturity score fell from 44 to 34 out of 100. Cathy Mauzaize, President, EMEA at ServiceNow, stated that although organisations are accelerating AI projects, most are still in the early stages. She emphasised the need for proper foundations, skills, and data strategies to succeed. IDC forecasts that European spending on AI will reach $144.6 billion by 2028. The potential is significant, but execution remains key. The report outlines three trends shaping AI progress in the region: Organisations are deploying more AI use cases. Nearly 47% in Europe and the Middle East reported launching over 100 use cases in the past year. Nearly 47% in Europe and the Middle East reported launching over 100 use cases in the past year. Agentic AI adoption is growing. While only 15% currently use it, 42% plan to implement it in the next year. While only 15% currently use it, 42% plan to implement it in the next year. Governance remains a critical gap. Data security is the top barrier to AI value in the UAE. ServiceNow highlighted that governance must be embedded from the beginning. Policies, oversight, and accountability should guide the deployment of technologies like agentic AI. In the UAE, the AI maturity score is 35, the highest in the region alongside the UK. However, only 9% of organisations have reached the most advanced stage of AI maturity. ServiceNow concluded that for AI to scale effectively and safely, strategic governance and skilled talent are essential.

AI Maturity Declines In The Middle East

ServiceNow has released its latest Enterprise AI Maturity Index in partnership with Oxford Economics. The findings reveal a surprising trend in Europe and the Middle East: although AI investment continues to grow, the average AI maturity score across the region has dropped by 10 points year over year. As enterprises struggle to keep pace with rapid innovation, many are finding it difficult to translate AI ambition into scalable, effective execution. The index examines five key components: leadership and strategy, workflows, talent, governance, and investment. Together they provide a comprehensive view of how prepared organisations are to scale AI successfully; their AI maturity level. Now in its second year, the global report draws on insights from almost 4,500 respondents globally, including 1,950 across nine markets in Europe and the Middle East including the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia. It shows that emerging technologies such as agentic AI are fuelling experimentation and delivering early returns across the region. However, the pace of change is moving faster than organisations' ability to scale AI in a structured, governed way. To this end, the region's average AI maturity score has dropped 10 points year on year, from 44 to just 34 out of 100. Cathy Mauzaize, President, EMEA at ServiceNow, says 'Organisations across Europe and the Middle East are accelerating their AI projects, but many are still in the early stages of their journey. They recognise the potential and now is the time to build on that energy. To keep moving forward, organisations are exploring how to lay the right foundations to make the data work for them, and give their people the skills to use AI with confidence. According to IDC, European spending on artificial intelligence will reach $144.6 billion in 2028[1]. The opportunity is huge, but only if we focus on getting the basics right today.' The report also outlines three major trends shaping the region's AI journey and what's needed to turn early success into lasting transformation. AI is outpacing organisations' capacity to harness it There is a clear appetite for innovation, with nearly half (47%) of organisations in Europe and the Middle East launching more than 100 AI use cases in the past year. UAE-based organisations are showing similar AI activity (49%), reflecting growing interest in large-scale experimentation. Still, most remain in the early stages of implementation, as reflected in this year's overall European AI maturity score of just 34. The majority of the region's organisations are focused on experimentation and expansion, with only 6% reaching the augmentation stage, which is the most advanced stage identified in the survey. In the UAE, the AI maturity score stands at 35 — which is the highest in Europe and the Middle East, tied with the UK — with 9% of organisations progressing to the most advanced stage. Agentic AI presents a clear opportunity Agentic AI, the AI that can act autonomously, is positioned to reshape enterprise automation. However, awareness varies widely across the region. While 15% of organisations in Europe and the Middle East are already using agentic AI and 42% plan to implement it within 12 months, familiarity is still in its early days. Only one in five organisations are very family with agentic AI, revealing a significant knowledge gap. The opportunity is clear, with over half of early adopters in Europe reporting improved gross margins (58%), greater efficiency and productivity (59%), and better experiences (60%). Governance is the missing link Rising adoption brings rising risk. AI at scale introduces serious challenges around cybersecurity, privacy, and regulatory compliance. And while the number of UAE organisations that have made significant strides in AI data governance rose slightly from 42% in 2024 to 45% in 2025, there is a need for a greater focus on managing AI risk effectively. This is particularly true given that data security is cited by UAE organisations as the top barrier to realizing AI value. To scale AI safely and effectively, governance must be foundational — not an afterthought. That means embedding policy, oversight, and accountability into platforms from the outset and approaching new technologies like agentic AI with a clear strategy in place.
