Introduction


Collaborative applications help people involved in a common task to achieve their goals. Employees are accustomed to the advantages of instant help and self-service as external consumers. They expect the same level of support when they contact the IT service desk for support. Conversations allow each team to have a centralized discussion that is saved and easily searchable.


Freshservice's Virtual Agent on Microsoft Teams enables companies to give instant and round-the-clock support to their employees. 

  • Get an instant notification to prioritize critical tickets with complete information on MS Teams. 

  • Create and update tickets right from MS Teams. Agents can add notes and reply to the requester without switching to Freshservice. 

  • View their most recent open and pending tickets assigned to them right within MS Teams
