Incident Management System Built For Fast Responses

Routing, approvals, reminders, and escalations run by rule, so tickets move without anyone chasing them.

Three outage reports merged into one critical incident ticket.

Incident Ticketing for Every Team That Handles Disruptions

Incidents reach IT, operations, and facilities in different forms, and Suptask tracks all of them the same way.

IT and platform engineering

Outages, deployment failures, and degraded services are tracked as incident tickets. Routing rules send each reported failure to the responder who handles that incident type.

Operations and facilities

Equipment faults, vendor issues, and site disruptions are tracked on the operations queue, with the same priorities and response targets IT uses.

Cross-team incidents

An incident that reaches IT, operations, and leadership is worked on one ticket thread, with internal notes kept between the responders.

Log Each Incident Message on One Ticket Thread

Suptask creates the incident ticket on the Slack thread where the incident is being discussed.
  • An incident reported in a Slack channel, thread, or DM is captured as a ticket
  • Ticket creation can happen automatically by rules, or manually with a ticket emoji
  • Assignments, priority changes, and resolution notes stay on the ticket record after the incident is closed

Assign, Escalate, and Resolve Each Incident Ticket in Slack

Suptask puts the ticket actions in the Slack thread where the response is happening.
  • Routing rules assign tickets to agents by keyword, channel, or by the form used
  • Escalation happens by raising the priority and reassigning the ticket to another responder
  • Internal notes let responders coordinate before the resolution is posted to the channel

The numbers speak for themselves.

Set SLAs by Priority on Each Incident Ticket

SLA thresholds are configured on the Inbox that handles the incident tickets.
  • An SLA is applied to the incident ticket based on the priority set on it
  • The clock runs from the moment a ticket is created
  • SLA compliance is reported by team, incident type, and time period

Track Incident Tickets Data From Built-In Dashboards

Suptask reports on incident tickets without an export step or a second reporting tool.
  • Incident volume, response time, and resolution time are reported on one dashboard
  • Incident tickets are filtered by type, priority, team, and date range
  • Agent workload appears on the same dashboard as the ticket volume

What Suptask Changes About Incident Management Ticketing System

Suptask applies ITIL-aligned ticket workflows to an incident reported in Slack. Categorization, ownership, SLA clocks, and escalation are handled on the ticket.
Ticket record of the incident
Alerting tools page the responder when something breaks. Suptask creates a ticket that records who owned the incident and how it was closed.
The record stays in Slack
The ticket is created on the Slack thread where the incident was discussed. Nothing is copied into a second tool afterward.
Works with tools already in use
Suptask integrates with Jira, GitHub, GitLab, and Zendesk. Existing tools can stay in place for on-call alerts, and Suptask tracks the ticket in Slack.
Cross-team incident management
A major incident reaches IT, operations, and leadership at the same time. The response stays on one ticket thread, with internal notes between the responders.
One place for data
Incident volume, response times, and SLA compliance are all reported from the same system that tracks the tickets.
Private ticket for sensitive incidents
A phishing report or an access issue is raised in a private ticket form. The details stay between the reporter and the assigned responder.

How the Incident Ticketing System Works in Slack

See how an incident reported in a Slack channel is turned into a ticket, routed to a responder, and closed in the same thread.

Report

An incident is reported in Slack with the information a responder needs to act on.

Track

Suptask turns the message into a ticket with an owner, priority, and response target.

Resolve

The assigned responder replies in the same thread until the incident is closed. The messages, assignments, and resolution notes are logged on the ticket.

Connect Your Tracker and Directory to the Incident Management Ticketing System

Jira, GitHub, GitLab, and Linear take the engineering fix from the incident ticket. Okta, Microsoft Entra, and Google Workspace show who is affected, PDQ Connect and Iru add device and patch status, and Confluence and Notion hold the known-issue articles Suptask AI answers from.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an incident ticketing system?

An incident ticketing system tracks service disruptions as individual tickets. Outages, failures, and degraded performance are logged with an owner, priority, and response target on each one. The system is also responsible for the record of how the incident was handled.

How is an incident ticketing system different from incident management software?

Incident management software helps organizations with the response side, like alerting, on-call rotation, and status updates. An incident ticketing system, on the other hand, maintains ticket records of who reported an incident, the responder, and how it was closed. 

Suptask is a ticketing system that can work with existing alerting tools an organization already has in place.

Can Suptask handle security incident tickets?

Yes, security incidents can be tracked in Slack with Suptask, as it has privacy enabled by default. Incidents, from phishing reports and access issues to vulnerability disclosures, can be handled in a private ticket. All the information will remain between the reporter and security teams only. 

What types of incidents can Suptask track?

Suptask can handle any service disruption a team handles. Server outages, deployment failures, software bugs, and equipment faults are some of the most common examples of incidents Suptask handles. Each incident type has its own forms, routing rules, and SLA targets. 

Does Suptask integrate with monitoring and alerting tools?

Suptask connects with Jira, GitHub, GitLab, and Zendesk for the work raised from an incident. Alerts from monitoring tools reach Slack, and the ticket starts from the alert message posted there.

What does an incident ticketing system cost with Suptask?

Suptask has four pricing plans. Starter is $15 per agent per month, Professional is $24 per agent per month, and Growth is $38 per agent per month, with a custom plan for enterprise teams. You can visit the pricing page for the current details or book a demo with us to know what fits your team.
