Convert SOPs into actionable, automated processes with Unified Runbooks

The Challenge: Drowning in a Sea of Tickets

Whether you’re an MSP or an internal IT team, you probably face a daily deluge of support tickets. This constant influx of requests strains resources, impacts service quality, and hinders growth. Many of these are recurring issues that experienced technicians can solve with their eyes closed:

  • Client or employee onboarding and offboarding

  • Password resets and account lockouts

  • System performance optimization

  • Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) troubleshooting

  • Email configuration and problem-solving

While these tasks are familiar, they consume valuable time that could be better spent on complex issues, maintenance, or strategic IT initiatives.

The Power of Standardization

By identifying patterns in ticket data, IT teams can develop Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) that:

  • Streamline response processes

  • Ensure consistency in service delivery

  • Facilitate knowledge transfer within the team

  • Pave the way for automation

Standardizing processes for common issues can significantly reduce resolution times, improve service quality, and free up technicians to focus on more complex, high-value tasks.

From Static SOPs to Dynamic Workflows: The Automation Imperative

While SOPs provide a solid foundation for efficiency, they remain static checklists without automation - essentially glorified Excel sheets. The true power of SOPs is unlocked through automation, transforming them into dynamic, actionable workflows.

Introducing Unified Runbooks: Your New Operational Edge

Enter SuperOps’ Unified Runbooks – a revolutionary feature designed to take automation to the next level. This innovative feature integrates seamlessly with all the PSA and RMM functionalities, allowing technicians to execute tasks directly from within a ticket.

Imagine working on a ticket and having access to:

  • A comprehensive checklist of required actions

  • The ability to create and assign tasks

  • One-click access to relevant IT documentation

  • The capability to run scripts on associated assets

  • A streamlined approval initiation process

  • Custom automation triggers

All of this, without ever leaving the ticket interface.

Features That Make a Difference
