ChatOps is new way to work by bringing your apps, teams and actions together in your conversation. Conversation is the force that lets people work together and learn together and create new things. Collaboration is driving human progress, and ChatOps provide you with the most powerful platform to collaborate yet.

Here are 6 ways in which ChatOps make your workplace more productive:

Reduce Down Time

The first step to fixing errors is spotting them. Automation of updates, notifications and tickets means that you can stay ahead of any bugs or issues that may come up in your work. Automating basic tasks- such as assigning critical bugs to team-member responsible immediately with a summary of what went wrong can reduce your down-time, keeping clients and customers happy! Moreover, unlike your employees, a bot doesn’t need vacations or sick days, so you can keep critical functions running even when your main people are out.

2. Ability to scale

When automation takes care of your basic tasks, you can set your sights on growing! When you and your team aren’t always putting out fires, or repeating the same tasks over and over, you have the ability to learn new things, expand into new markets and do more. The largest companies in the world rely heavily on automation, and to be among the best, you should too.

3. Make the most out of everyone’s time

A large amount of employee time is spent in switching between different applications, or doing the same thing over and over again. This is what makes work feel mundane. With ChatOps, you can conduct all your tasks through one application, stay on top of alerts and automate repetitive tasks, leaving your employees to do creative, productive work in every domain.

4. Say Bye to Human Errors

Bots don’t make mistakes. They do exactly what they are programmed to. They don’t need reminders either. With bots handling your menial work, you can be assured that all your work is being done exactly the way it is supposed to. Mails to new subscribers, basic customer support, flow of information among teams and tools can be automated to eliminate human error almost entirely.

5. Improve Security

One cyber attack can bring your whole organisation down. Automating monitoring of your servers and processes, and alerts when something is wrong can help your company to fend off attacks or leaks while they are happening, keeping your data safer for longer.

6. Better Work Culture

With the transparency of all your work coming together in 1 place, and increased collaboration by taking actions in team chats, your team works better. Since teams get alerted on issues instantly, can get together and discuss the reports and take actions in real time, stress goes down, and productivity just goes up!
