Project Summary

The ServiceNow Teams Integration project, scheduled to go live in November, enhances communication and support by seamlessly connecting Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365 with ServiceNow. This integration creates a more connected experience for end users and IT professionals, driving enterprise-wide productivity. Along with phone and email support, customers will now have the ability to reach IT via chat directly through the ServiceNow portal. This allows the university community to access self-service options effortlessly, while IT teams can resolve cases more efficiently.

Customer Service Changes

Customer Chat Support Implementation: Service Desk, Systems Support, and Command Center agents can efficiently go to the Service Operations workspace in ServiceNow and set their availability for interacting with customers. As chat requests come in, agents can accept them based on their availability status, ensuring timely and responsive customer support. In addition, agents can contact customers with questions, provide information about a ticket, or follow up after the ticket is resolved to ensure no further assistance is needed. This streamlined process allows agents to handle inquiries with flexibility and efficiency.

The ServiceNow Teams integration addresses the following interactions:

  • Customer to Agent
  • Agent to Customer
  • Agent to Agent
