New features for Jira Service Management

At the event, a variety of newly planned functionalities for Jira Service Management were presented by Atlassian. Here is a summary of the most important ones for you:

JSM gets an artificial intelligence based Virtual Assistant!

Probably the most exciting news regarding Jira Service Management is Atlassian's announcement that they are working with Percept.ai on a Virtual Assistant that will take the user's service experience to the next level using artificial intelligence!

The Assistant is supposed to learn based on your existing data in the system and help users reach their goal in an automated way using step-by-step instructions.

The event itself: Our impressions

Atlassian wouldn't be Atlassian if they hadn't managed to outdo themselves again this time! The event location at The O2 in London was partly in a real cinema and provided an extremely cool atmosphere. Let's let pictures do the talking instead of words at this point:

Many thanks to all of you, whom we had the pleasure to meet again or could finally see again! You made this event what it was: AWE-SOME!
