SERVICENOW CSM<\/p>

Customer Service Management, modelled on how your customers are actually structured<\/span><\/h1>\n

CSM looks like ITSM with different labels. It is not. The hard part is the account model \u2014 who is entitled to what, which contacts can raise cases for which entities, and how that survives a customer reorganising.<\/p>

What CSM covers<\/span><\/h2><\/div>THE MODULES AND PROCESSES WE IMPLEMENT<\/span>
Case Management<\/dt>
Intake, routing, escalation, and case lifecycles that differ from incident because customers are not employees.<\/dd><\/div>
Account & Contact Model<\/dt>
B2B hierarchies, partner relationships, install base, and contact roles \u2014 the decisions that are expensive to change later.<\/dd><\/div>
Entitlements & SLAs<\/dt>
Service contracts, entitlement checking, and response commitments that match what your legal agreements actually promise.<\/dd><\/div>
Customer Portal<\/dt>
Self-service that reduces case volume rather than hiding the contact form, plus knowledge aimed at customers instead of at agents.<\/dd><\/div>
Omni-channel<\/dt>
Email, web, chat and messaging into one queue, with context that survives a channel switch.<\/dd><\/div>
Field Service Management<\/dt>
Work orders, scheduling, parts and dispatch, where the case leads to someone physically attending.<\/dd><\/div><\/dl><\/div><\/section>\n\n

Your customers are not your employees<\/h2>

Case management looks like incident with different labels. The account and entitlement model is where CSM projects are actually won or lost.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n
