Creating XLAs for all IT needs

The standardized data collected through HappySignals enables you to create and modify XLAs without touching your ITSM tool.

All of the Experience Data in HappySignals is comparable, as they all measure the same human experience with IT.

XLAs can be created for any level of granularity simply by selecting which team or service is concerned, choosing an Experience Level Target, the time period for which the XLA applies, and saving it with a click of a button.

One XLA metric for all of IT

The Happiness Score™ provides a metric that can be used across all IT. The experience, as perceived by end-users themselves, is the outcome that IT should aim to offer and XLAs should reflect.

Update XLAs easily

Experience is not static, and neither should XLA levels be. As circumstances change, XLAs should be updated to reflect achievable and realistic target levels. HappySignals lets you easily edit the Experience Level Targets to modify XLAs when needed.

XLAs with IT vendors

The simplicity of the HappySignals XLA Management makes it easy to set XLAs for various IT vendors and partners. HappySignals has been successfully used in different service integration and management (SIAM) practices.

Humans are the best sensors

Only humans can experience things. Processes and technology contribute to the experience, but the actual experience is ultimately what the end user perceives. SLAs are most likely being kept in the mix, so they are more suited for the process and technology measurements, while XLAs should focus on the experience.

XLAs are driven by Experience, Operational, and Technical Data, but cannot simply exist without Experience Data.
