Leaning into self-service, modern IT Service Management (ITSM) solutions offer a fast and efficient way for customers to resolve their issues without relying on the IT service desk.
Typically, organizations begin by building an end-user portal with a knowledge base, followed by the introduction of chatbots. But these chatbots often fall flat as they do nothing more than query the knowledge base.
By leveraging enterprise integration, action-based automation and the use of a centralized AI-powered Intent Matching Agent, IT teams are finding that the virtual service agents are able to now deflect 30-60% of tickets.
Whether you are looking to level up an older ticketing platform or considering migration to a no-code platform, you will benefit from this comprehensive report which looks at business value, ease of use, strategy and innovation across ITSM vendors. Get the Info-Tech Vendor Rankings Report.

There is nothing quite so powerful as the voice of the customer which is why so many leverage the annual Gartner Voice of the Customer report for IT Service Management. A culmination of customer reviews over the past 18 months—this report offers a complete view of the ITSM marketplace.
Because conversational AI virtual service agents understand intent, they are much more effective when it comes to assisting customers and end users. For example, when using traditional chat, if you say “My password broke,” it would likely be confused and ask you to restate your problem. But with conversational AI, it can infer your intent and know that you mean your password isn’t working and automatically send a reset password link to the email on file.
With AI Service Assist, AI helps technicians become more productive. By AI offering resolutions and helpful KB articles within the ticket window on the backend, technicians can save 4-7 minutes per ticket, resulting in 40-90% faster resolution.
On the backend, virtual service agents can pull the email address needed from the system where it’s stored and automatically send a password reset email—resolving the issue within the conversation in seconds. No ticket needed.
Ticket resolution suggestions, field value suggestions and KB content creation are just a few of the ways that AI is fundamentally changing the IT service desk and evolving ITSM – ultimately driving faster, better IT service for all.
