Manage your IT services

API 2.0 Compatible

The ServiceNow and Mimecast integration makes life easier for customers by consolidating security actions into one platform. With the ServiceNow and Mimecast integration joint customers can now remain in the ServiceNow admin console where they just toggle to the appropriate Mimecast security action that they wish to perform.

Mimecast has taken some of the most frequently performed functions that are managed exclusively in the Mimecast admin console and moved them fully into ServiceNow. If a helpdesk analyst gets a ticket to perform one of these routine functions, they no longer need to reallocate the ticket. They don’t have to go through the usual routine of logging into another admin console to perform that function, and then log back into ServiceNow to close the ticket.
