We have finished our Service processes and all ITSM Documentation, now the challenge begins with the implementation of Jira Service Manager as the Standardize Service Desk / Ticket System for our IT and Support Department.
I am looking for a contact within Atlassian who can help us out with some questions around the product. We have an external consultant who is responsible for all Jira implementations who will be implementing Jira.
We have 2 main questions which are very important when building up our POC for the ITSM Tool or Service Desk.
- Queue Management, we have the information that Deviniti offers good Addons which can help us out building the desired project. Though is this the best approach when attempting to Manage Queues and work with IT Teams as Queues as for example 1st Level IT Support – 2nd Level and 3rd Level?
- The group works with 2 Active Directories or 2 different domains and we require to have something like an active sync of all users in the group, we know from our consultant that Jira does not offer this Out of the Box but that there are some possibilities within Addons, could you please help us out here, from your perspective which Addons or best practices are the best when attempting to do this, as we wish to import the user´s Information from AD such as Adress, Department, Manager, etc. and we require to sync the users to Jira from 2 different Domains, is this possible? And how would be the best approach, we have read the is something called “Enhanced User Profile” as an Addon.
Please do not hesitate if more information is required, I would like to set a Call if this is also possible to introduce our Service Desk Manager. I am an external ITSM consultant of the group.
Thank you very much!
