If you're part of an ITSM or ITIL-aligned support team using Jira Service Management, you already know the power of automation, SLAs, and structured workflows.
But here’s the truth: Jira Service Management’s default features are just the starting point.
To truly elevate your customer experience, streamline agent workflows, and boost compliance, you need the right Jira plugins for support teams — tools that fill critical gaps in communication, visibility, and data governance.
In this article, we’ll walk you through the best Jira apps for service management teams — built by Twinit — all designed to boost your JSM instance without bloating it.
Support tickets can go dark for customers — especially when they're waiting for updates.
The Customer Portal Notifications for Jira app allows you to send automated, branded notifications directly in the customer portal for key events like:
Status changes (e.g., “In Progress,” “Waiting for Customer”)
Approvals
Comments
🟢 Why it’s a must-have:
This app bridges the gap between your backend SLA compliance and the customer-facing experience — reducing ticket abandonment and unnecessary “What’s the status?” follow-ups.
🔑 Great for: ITSM teams focused on CSAT, Call Center teams and customer communication.
What if your users could get ticket updates without checking their email or the portal?
With Browser Notifications for Portal Customers, your Jira Service Management portal can now send native browser push notifications for:
Requests
Comments
Any Actions configured within Jira
Whether they’re created, updated or deleted and it comes with lots of additonal functionalities.
🟢 Why it’s a must-have:
It’s fast, frictionless, and boosts customer engagement. Especially useful for high-volume support environments where response speed matters.
🔑 Great for: Internal helpdesks and enterprise support teams that want to reduce response time.
For IT teams handling sensitive data, compliance and accountability are non-negotiable.
The User Activity Audit Log gives Jira admins a centralised, no-code dashboard to track 150+ actions such as:
Who edited or deleted issues
Workflow and project config changes
Login activity and user permission updates
Assets objects Updates
Global Settings and Options
🟢 Why it’s a must-have:
Whether you’re prepping for an audit or investigating suspicious behavior, this tool gives you full visibility without touching the API.
🔑 Great for: Compliance-focused support teams under ISO/SOC2/GDPR requirements.
Service management teams often collaborate with third-party vendors or internal departments using different Jira instances. Unfortunately, Jira Cloud doesn't natively support attachment sharing across instances.
That’s where Secure Attachment Transfer comes in. It enables:
Easy, encrypted attachment transfers to Cloud and DC instances
Automation rule support for attachment syncing
No need for manual downloads or re-uploads
Adding attachments to Asset objects
🟢 Why it’s a must-have:
Critical when coordinating incident response or change management across departments and vendors.
🔑 Great for: Multi-instance organizations and external support collaborations.
