Transparent Shipment Tracking: How Advisory Solutions Enhanced Customer Service with Feature Bundle for Jira Service Management

Introducing Advisory Solutions

Advisory Solutions implements, manages, and secures IT systems for startups, nonprofit organizations, and agencies across the US. As a Managed Service Provider (MSP), they work to maximize the security and productivity of their clients by providing ready-to-go processes and IT expertise.

Challenge: Service desk portal lacked critical information

Advisory faced challenges with its Jira Service Management Portal. They couldn’t display custom fields, linked tickets, or attachments in their help center which resulted in a lack of transparency for customers on their hardware shipments and returns.

As a result, there were many questions from customers, which meant extra inquiries for agents.

Solution: Feature Bundle as an extension for Jira Service Management

Advisory started looking for solutions to help with the portal's lack of data. They chose Appsvio's solution because it not only offered the ability to show custom fields, linked tickets, and attachments but also displayed a customized progress tracker for shipments and returns, enhancing the Jira service desk portal's value for clients.

The Feature Bundle for Jira Service Management is used to display previously hidden information to customers which was already being added to tickets by their warehousing and logistics team.

The app is able to be configured quickly, requires minimal ongoing maintenance, and provides continuous value to their customers.

The results: customer support workflow improved 

The Advisory team not only noticed savings from reduced support inquiries but also increased the level of professionalism in their customers' eyes. The best part was that support agents had no disruption or changes to their processes after implementing the solution.
