Customizable for any use case

Rather than making users purchase and configure additional modules for new functionality or use cases, Jira Service Management offers customizable templates for ITSM, customer service, and business teams like HR and finance. The flexibility and simplicity of the product allows every team across your company to take and fulfill requests through a simple service desk.

Built for the DevOps era

Jira Service Management is the only ITSM tool and service desk built on a software development platform. Link Jira Service Management tickets to Jira Software issues. This way, support and dev teams can collaborate on the same platform to fix incidents faster and push changes with confidence.
