Deliver on time with Service Level Agreement automation

A Service Level Agreement is a contract where the level of service you provide is defined using rules like 'a critical issue has to be resolved within so many hours.' Make sure this contract is never breached by setting up escalations that notify you well in advance. You can also automate actions like reassigning the unresolved issue to a developer with specialized experience.

SLA - Zoho Projects

Automate the process, from start to finish

Once you create an SLA and specify when it is to be executed, the entire process becomes automatic.This removes the hassle of you having to monitor each step along the way.

Automate the process

Set definite targets to aim for

For each SLA that you create, you can set up a target that you wish to achieve. For example, you could define that any issue marked as a "Show stopper" should get closed within six hours, or that a resolution should be posted for the issue within an hour.

Definite targets

Escalate when needed and stick to your guarantees

Escalations can be at many levels. For instance, if an issue remains unresolved, a senior developer is informed about this in two hours, a tech lead in four hours, and the project manager in six hours. You can also specify what action must be taken at each of these levels.

Escalate when needed
