Jira Jira Integration

PMC retail comment:

ITIM was a new customer that wanted to integrate their Jira application with PMC’s Freshservice ITSM tool. This was a challenge for the PMC admins as an integration was not implemented before across any of its customers. After several discussions with ITIM the requirements were provided with a clear direction of what was needed. Upon reviewing tools in the marketplace Getints integration capabilities stuck out to PMC due to the fact it had a seamless implementation which did not require technical resources. An integration that could have taken over a few weeks with another provider took less than 3 hours to complete across 8 integrations for 8 of ITIM’s customers! This allowed PMC and ITIM to start providing services to customers with the integration in place before the retail peak period which was vital. The integration has proved a success and PMC are looking to utilise the integration across many of its customers.
