Announcing Enhanced Kaseya BMS Integration with IT Glue
BY IT GLUE | May 14, 2019
At its flagship Connect IT conference, Kaseya unveiled a rich integration between its BMS software and IT Glue. If you’re using BMS, this integration is going to be make it even easier to smash tickets. Now, IT Glue information about an organization will surface within the BMS app when you look at the ticket screen. That’s it. No more toggling between BMS and IT Glue in your browser. It’s all right there, in BMS. Pretty sweet, huh?
How it works
This integration works from the ticket screen in BMS. When you go to view a ticket in BMS and have entered the affected asset, you can now view IT Glue information associated with the ticket by clicking on the small black IT Glue button on the right-hand side of the screen. This integration puts your documentation right in BMS, so you don’t have to toggle between tabs.
Streamlined workflow
The combination of our new BMS integration, and our pre-existing integration with VSA, offers technicians a seamless workflow, as shown in the video above. Let’s break this down a bit.
When a ticket comes through in BMS, you can see contextual information including the Configuration, Organization, Contact, and Location, right within BMS. Now, say you’d like to view more details of a specific IT Glue configuration, you can click on the “View in IT Glue” button. Once in IT Glue, if you’re viewing more information and realize that you need to launch VSA LiveConnect, you can do so right within IT Glue as well. Once in VSA LiveConnect, the associated information in IT Glue remains visible.
Optimizing this integration
We highly recommend that items within IT Glue are related. This way, it will be easy for your service desk technicians to move quickly between the IT Glue asset that is surfaced to other vital information such as passwords, users, and locations. Building out the structure of your documentation is always recommended, but doing so today will help you get the most out of this new BMS integration.
