Collaboration between teams is a core principle of effective development, but sometimes sharing or getting information quickly requires too many steps, and ends up not being so quick. With the Jira Salesforce integration, you can quickly and easily share relevant data – from the last customer correspondence to the most recent comment on an open issue – between teams in one central location.
In this article we’ll discuss how to connect Salesforce & Jira using the Connector for Salesforce & Jira Atlassian app.
There are many reasons why the Jira Salesforce integration might help your team, but here are some of the most common benefits:
- Confidence in your data – With the Jira Salesforce integration, your information will be auto synchronized, comments are aggregated, and your data will be presented in a concise, easily digestible form to ensure world class service delivery.
- Exceptional Customer Service – The integration enables you to manage customer issues and expectations quickly and efficiently. Having all relevant information in one place makes everyone an expert, from support to developer, and your customers will feel like they got the “white glove” experience.
- Automated Workflows – The integration allows you to automate workflows so you can spend time on what matters. For example, when a customer raises a support request in Salesforce, a related ticket can be created in Jira automatically.
- Increased Productivity – With the Jira Salesforce integration, the need to email another team for up to date information is a thing of the past. Having all the information readily available and accessible means your team gets precious time back and prevents projects from being put on hold while data is gathered.
