IT gets measured. Other areas often don't.
HR, finance, facilities, and shared services all run cases through your ITSM platform. HappySignals asks the people in those fields about their experience, with the same surveys, targets, and reporting you already use for IT.
A decision
Speed. It's the weakest experience driver in finance at +14, and the UK desk takes longest on expense reimbursements. A third of unhappy employees also say the instructions were hard to understand. Fix the expense process and its guidance in the UK first.

A +49 in finance means what a +49 means in IT.
Six things that turn case reports into Experience Intelligence for every business service.
One measure across every service
IT, HR, finance, and facilities answer the same short survey, so a +49 in finance means the same as a +49 in IT. For the first time the services can be compared, by service and by country.
Why, not just what
Employees pick the reasons behind their score, the same Experience Indicators you use for IT. In finance the answer is rarely the answer itself. It's the speed, the instructions, and explaining the case twice.
Lost time, in every function
Employees say how much work time a case cost them. Finance scores highest in the benchmark and still costs the most time per ticket. A score and lost time have to be read together.
Your case was closed. How happy are you with the outcome?
A target for every service
Pick a service and set a target for it. HR, finance, and facilities targets work exactly like the ones you set for IT, and the provider sees the same number you do.
The same ITSM platform
If a business service already runs on ServiceNow or BMC Helix, the survey goes out from the case you already have. No new tool for HR or finance to learn.
Your AI experience advisor
Ask our new conversational AI feature which service costs employees the most time, where a hand-off breaks, or what to show the Global Business Services steering group. Answer in seconds.
Finance is the happiest service. It also costs people the most time.
Case reports say closed. Your people say how it actually went.
Your service desk tool knows the case was closed on time. Your annual engagement survey knows people are unhappy with "internal services". Neither tells HR or finance what to change next week.

Where business services usually start.
Pick the service you're responsible for. Each shows what the data looks like and what it's worth.
Which finance desk costs people the most time?
Accounts payable, payroll, expenses, and collections all run through the finance desks. The same question after every case shows which desk, which country, and which system the frustration sits in.
One desk carries the gap, and it's a process, not a person.
What do new joiners think of our services?
No separate onboarding survey. HappySignals knows how long each employee has worked for you, so you filter any service by employment time. The first six months tell you what new joiners think of HR, IT, and facilities.
Month two to six is where new joiners struggle.
Which HR requests cost people the most time?
Time off, data changes, payroll updates, and system access all go through the HR desks. Experience data shows which request types leave people waiting, and which desks and countries wait longest.
The requests people wait on most score lowest.
Does the office work for the people in it?
Desk, badge, meeting room, and repair requests are the most visible service most employees use. A fast close is not the same as a fixed room.
One site carries the frustration.
Is the shared services center as good as its SLA?
A Global Business Services or shared services center reports cost per case and SLA. Add what the employee reported, and the steering group sees IT, HR, and finance on one yardstick, the way the benchmark does.
Well handled is not the same as cheap in time.
