The past few years have led to fundamental business and cultural shifts for both companies and employees. Covid-19 has brought opportunities for companies who invested early in digital operations, while others struggled to maintain the status quo. The latter gave rise to record employee burnout, and what is now commonly referred to as the Great Resignation.

Imagine you are sitting at a service desk, your prime objective is to resolve an incident as quickly and efficiently as possible and retain the customer. But, if you’re running into unavoidable technical issues, resulting in causing frustration to customers or clients, it’s high time to invest in the right tools. That’s where ITSM and ITOM come in, and these play an important role in the organization’s growth and agility.

Accelerating the overall enterprise efficiency is not an easy task as you probably rely on multiple tools to communicate with customers, partners, employees, and vendors. There’s a chance that you’re already working with multiple software vendors to optimize your IT and network infrastructure.

Over the last year, we have deepened our integration with Salesforce Service Cloud, allowing users to work directly within the platform, reducing the need to context switch.

A lot of people in technology talk about the cost of an incident solely from the perspective of downtime, or the number of customers and employees impacted. And from the surface, oftentimes that is a fair angle to take. It makes the headlines, and customer reputation and trust are critical to the success of any business—obviously.

Operations management software is a must-have for insurance companies.
