Human-centric IT Service Management

Turn ITSM operations into outcomes people love.

CSAT isn't enough, because a score won’t tell you what to fix. HappySignals turns ticket-driven feedback into benchmarked, actionable experience signals—connected to your ITSM data—so you can pinpoint the drivers, recover lost time, and improve what employees actually experience.

Built on insights from over 13 million end-user responses, HappySignals gives ITSM teams a clear view of where experience breaks down and how to improve it. Customers achieve +24% higher happiness and gain 26% of productivity within a year.

Your dashboards show outputs. We show outcomes.

You already have the operational story—tickets, SLAs, assignment groups, channels, MTTR. What’s missing is the employee reality: did it feel resolved, did it help them work, and what caused the friction? HappySignals connects experience to operations so you can move from “reporting” to a decision system.

HappySignals for ITSM Product view

1. Stop reporting scores. Start exposing friction.

A single CSAT number won’t tell you where tickets bounce, where MTTR hides delay, or where employees quietly lose time — we will.

 

2. Benchmark reality — not internal optimism

Know whether your Incident, Request, and Change practices truly perform — compared to peers, regions, and vendors — not just against your own targets.

3. Hear from more than the loudest 4%

High response rates mean you see the full service story — not just escalations and outliers.

 

4. Averages hide the pain of different user segments

See which roles, locations, or business units struggle most — even when the overall service score looks fine.

5. AI summarizes the data for you

Turn thousands of ticket comments into clear themes in minutes — so you can focus on improvement, not reading spreadsheets.

 

6. Measure where productivity is lost

Quantify lost time per service, channel, or vendor — and prioritize improvements based on business impact, not ticket volume.

How HappySignals changed their ITSM story

What organizations without HappySignals experience in ITSM?

 

Low response rates-1

Low response rates

Traditional CSAT and yearly surveys often suffer from low response rates (5–10% typical). The average HappySignals response rate is between 20-40%!

Survey design struggles and poor data quality

Survey design struggles and poor data quality

Creating surveys from scratch requires expertise. If not done well, you’ll get low participation and poor-quality insights. Often IT surveys are too short to be actionable, or too long to be completed.

Difficulty deriving value from data

Difficulty deriving value from data

Teams often don’t know how to interpret or act on what little feedback they receive. HappySignals transforms this by making experience analytics clear, actionable, and integrated with operational data.

Aligned with ITIL 5: experience-driven, outcome-focused, AI-ready ITSM

ITIL 5 modernizes service management for the AI era—connecting strategy, delivery, and measurable outcomes, unifying product + service into one lifecycle, and putting experience at the center. HappySignals fits naturally into that shift by turning ITSM work into decision-grade experience signals you can manage, improve, and prove.

Focus on value

Connect strategy, delivery, and outcomes

Move from “activity reporting” to “outcome management.” HappySignals links employee feedback to ITSM reality—services, channels, teams, vendors—so you can show what changed, why it changed, and what value it created.

Progress iteratively with feedback

Unify product + service into one lifecycle

ITIL 5 emphasizes one lifecycle where teams design, build, launch, operate, and improve together—reducing friction, silos, and handoffs. HappySignals highlights where handoffs and operating gaps hurt experience, so teams can improve the lifecycle end-to-end.

Collaborate and promote visibility

Bring business and technology together with shared truth

ITIL 5 calls for a shared model that links delivery to measurable outcomes. HappySignals gives stakeholders a common language: experience themes + operational drivers + impact—so prioritization isn’t opinion-driven.

Enterprise service

AI-ready by design (with governance in mind)

ITIL 5 includes practical guidance to adopt and scale AI responsibly, with governance built in. HappySignals supports AI initiatives in ITSM by revealing where automation helps (or harms) experience—and by tracking outcomes, not just deflection.

An evolution, not a revolution

ITIL 5 keeps familiar foundations (guiding principles, practices, value focus) while strengthening experience and outcome orientation. HappySignals helps you build on what already works—without rebuilding your reporting stack from scratch.

In case you're wondering

HappySignals helps ITSM teams understand how employees truly experience IT services — and where to focus improvements that boost productivity and satisfaction.

Here’s what it delivers:

  • Real-time experience insights: Measures Happiness and Lost Time for incidents, requests, and portal interactions — showing how IT impacts daily work.

  • High-quality feedback you can trust: Research-backed surveys drive 20–40% response rates, giving ITSM reliable data instead of guesswork.

  • AI-powered analysis: Automatically summarizes thousands of free-text comments so teams don’t need to read them manually. You instantly see the top themes, pain points, and improvement ideas.

  • Root-cause visibility: Combines experience data with ITSM operational data (services, assignment groups, channels, locations) to pinpoint issues fast.

  • Clear improvement priorities: Benchmarks and AI insights highlight where IT can reduce lost time and improve service quality.

  • Stronger business alignment: Helps IT move from SLA-driven reporting to experience-led decisions that show measurable business value.

In short: HappySignals turns ITSM data and employee sentiment into actionable insights — helping IT improve services, reduce productivity loss, and make employees happier.

Standard CSAT tells you if a user was satisfied. HappySignals shows you how IT services impact employees and productivity.

Here’s how we differ:

  • Higher response rates: CSAT typically gets 5–10%, while HappySignals delivers 20–40% thanks to simple, research-backed surveys.

  • Measures impact, not just satisfaction: We track Happiness and Lost Time, helping IT see where productivity is being lost.

  • Shows the “why,” not just the score: Built-in experience indicators explain what actually drove the rating.

  • Connected to operational data: You can instantly drill down by service, assignment group, channel, country, or vendor.

  • Benchmarked and actionable: Global benchmarks and AI summaries highlight where to focus your improvements.

In short: CSAT is a score. HappySignals is experience management — helping IT prioritize the changes that matter for employees.

HappySignals reveals the real reasons employees get frustrated with IT services—the things traditional metrics and CSAT scores typically miss.

Here’s what it uncovers:

  • Hidden productivity killers: Which incidents or services cause the most lost time, even if SLAs look green.

  • Root causes of poor experiences: Clear insights into factors like unclear instructions, slow communication, repeated reassignments, or long wait times.

  • Channel friction: Whether certain channels (portal, chat, email, phone) make work harder instead of easier.

  • Technical vs. human gaps: When issues feel “resolved” in the system but don’t feel resolved to the employee — the “Watermelon Effect.”

  • Employee profile differences: How frustrations vary by role, location, tech confidence, or work style.

  • Theme-level insights: AI summarizes thousands of free-text comments so IT can instantly see the top pain points without reading everything manually.

In short: HappySignals identifies the everyday friction employees face — and shows IT exactly where to focus to remove it.

HappySignals helps IT move from a cost center to a value-driving partner by showing how IT services impact productivity, employee satisfaction, and business performance.

Here’s how it enables the business:

  • Quantifies productivity gains: Measures Lost Time so IT can show how improvements return hours — or FTEs — back to the business.

  • Proves the value of IT investments: Links changes (new tools, processes, vendors) directly to employee experience and business outcomes.

  • Prioritizes what matters most: Highlights which issues affect productivity and happiness, helping IT focus resources where they deliver the biggest impact.

  • Supports experience-based governance (XLAs): Shifts conversations from SLA compliance to delivering real business value through better experiences.

  • Accelerates decision-making: AI summarizes feedback and themes so leaders can quickly understand what’s working — and what needs action.

  • Improves adoption of digital initiatives: Shows how employees perceive new tools and services, helping IT drive smoother rollouts and higher adoption rates.

In short: HappySignals turns ITSM data into business insights, helping IT make decisions that improve productivity, demonstrate value, and enable the whole organization to perform better.

HappySignals integrates seamlessly with modern ITSM tools to capture experience data automatically.

Today, the platform integrates with:

  • ServiceNow (certified Store app; easiest and most common)

  • Freshservice

  • Ivanti Neurons

  • BMC Helix

  • Jira Service Management (Cloud)

These integrations allow HappySignals to pull operational data (services, categories, assignment groups, channels, locations) so IT teams get full context behind the experience.

In short: If your ITSM tool manages tickets, HappySignals can plug into it — quickly and with minimal effort from IT.
