This study was conducted to iterate upon the brand new ServiceNow Mobile application for 15,000 internal Optum users. The goal of the study was to make sure users were able to perform daily work on their Mobile devices both inside and outside of the office.

The key findings were slow loading times, unclear navigation, and a lack of features. Findings were consolidated into a backlog for product iterations.
