Introducing JAMS Incident Management: A Game-Changer for IT Operations and Service Desk Teams

JAMS Software Launches Innovative Tool for Incident Management

On September 1, 2026, JAMS Software introduced JAMS Incident Management, a state-of-the-art on-call alerting and incident management software tailored for IT operations, service desks, and engineering teams. This innovative tool promises to simplify incident response and improve communication within teams.

Comprehensive Alerting System

JAMS Incident Management is designed with versatility in mind. It effortlessly accepts alerts from any system capable of sending an email, calling a webhook, or reaching an API. This ensures that teams receive timely notifications via voice calls, SMS, push notifications, email, Microsoft Teams, and Slack. The escalation process is smart: alerts are escalated through the on-call rotation until someone acknowledges the incident, enabling teams to manage issues effectively and efficiently.

Key Features

1. Multi-Channel Notifications: Teams can receive alerts via multiple channels, enhancing accessibility and ensuring that incidents are never overlooked.
2. Integrations: The software boasts two-way integrations with key platforms such as Azure Monitor, ServiceNow, and Zendesk, which enhances workflow and improves incident tracking.
3. Cost-Effective Plans: The platform is available for free for teams of up to five users. Paid plans start at just $6 per user per month, making it a budget-friendly solution for businesses of all sizes.
4. User-Friendly Dashboard: The dashboard displays delivery status across various platforms, allowing for real-time tracking of incident resolution and acknowledgment.

Built by IT Professionals for IT Professionals

JAMS Software created this tool out of necessity. The company’s own service teams experienced the frustrations of using overly complex software with unnecessary features. As a result, they designed a straightforward application that focuses on alerting the right personnel without any distraction or inefficiency. Peter Hegland, CEO of JAMS Software, emphasized this commitment, stating, "We built JAMS Incident Management for people like us," highlighting the software's user-centric approach.

Enhanced Collaboration

This tool is particularly beneficial for teams that rely on collaboration tools like Zendesk. For instance, it provides a streamlined on-call scheduling feature allowing for quick escalations. Teams can expect to receive alerts when critical tasks are at risk or when an outage occurs, ensuring they can react swiftly to mitigate impacts on operations.

Security and Reliability

JAMS Incident Management is hosted on Microsoft Azure, ensuring high availability and security. With TLS encryption in transit, tenant isolation, and comprehensive audit trails, teams can trust that their data is secure and that they can respond to incidents without delay.

Conclusion

In an era where swift incident resolution is paramount for business success, JAMS Incident Management stands out as a vital tool for IT operations and service desk teams. Its combination of utility, flexibility, and affordability makes it a compelling choice for organizations looking to enhance their incident management protocols.
