Introduction
Collaboration apps foster a streamlined platform for teams to work together. Slack enables teams to collaborate and work closely with each other to get work done. The Servicebot plugs real-time ticket updates right into Slack and allows agents to seamlessly collaborate with their teammates to get work done faster. Using the Servicebot for Slack you can enable your agents to,
Invite team members to collaborate on a ticket right within the Slack channels. The conversations are added to the Freshservice ticket threads for future reference.
Collaborate and stay on top of their ticket updates with tickets automatically posted to relevant channels.
Create and update tickets right from Slack. They can add notes and reply to customers without switching to Freshservice.
View their most recent open and pending tickets assigned to them right within Slack.
Looking to integrate your Freshservice and Slack to raise support tickets and get notified about your tickets? You can do much more by using our Servicebot for Slack.
