Elevating Service Experience with ServiceNow
ServiceNow has become the operational backbone for thousands of organizations worldwide — managing IT service requests, HR workflows, customer service cases, and more through a single unified platform. But for many ServiceNow deployments, voice communication remains a gap: agents still switch between ServiceNow and a separate phone system to handle calls, creating friction, reducing productivity, and leaving interaction data siloed outside the platform.
Organizations that integrate voice communications directly into ServiceNow workflows report up to 35% faster case resolution times and significantly higher first-contact resolution rates.
The Problem with Disconnected Voice and ServiceNow
When a customer calls your support line and an agent picks up, what happens next? The agent handles the call on a separate phone system, takes notes manually, then logs the interaction in ServiceNow after the call ends — if they remember. The call recording, if it exists at all, lives in a completely different system with no link to the service record. This fragmentation is both inefficient and risky: interactions get missed, notes are incomplete, and managers have no visibility into what actually happened on any given call.
What Iristel Brings to ServiceNow
Embedded voice within the ServiceNow interface
Iristel’s SIP trunking and cloud voice APIs integrate with ServiceNow via standard CTI (Computer Telephony Integration) and REST interfaces. Once integrated, agents can make and receive calls directly within the ServiceNow interface — no phone switching, no tab toggling, no manual data entry.
Automatic call logging to service records
Every call is automatically logged against the relevant service record — including caller identity, call duration, timestamps, and a link to the call recording. Managers can review the full interaction history for any case without leaving ServiceNow.
Workflow-triggered communications
ServiceNow workflows can trigger outbound calls or SMS notifications automatically based on case status changes. A ticket escalation can automatically notify the customer by call or text. An SLA breach can trigger an immediate callback assignment. Communication becomes part of the workflow, not an afterthought.
Real-time transcription and sentiment analysis
With Iristel’s AI-powered Conversation Capture integrated into ServiceNow, calls are transcribed in real time with sentiment indicators. Supervisors can monitor live interactions and intervene when sentiment signals a customer escalation, before the situation deteriorates.
