Creating SLA for guest service means tracking exactly how long a guest waits for a reply, by stage, instead of relying on a general sense that "we respond quickly." In **Jestor**, native **SLA** tracking applies to any process, including WhatsApp-based guest communication.

Guest reviews frequently mention response time, whether directly or indirectly — which makes it one of the few operational metrics with a clear, visible connection to the ratings that drive future bookings.

## What guest service teams miss without SLA tracking

- No data on actual response times, only a general impression
- No automatic alert when a guest message has gone unanswered too long
- No way to compare response performance across different staff or shifts
- Delays discovered only after a guest complains or leaves a negative review

## How SLA tracking works for guest service

- **SLA** tracking records exactly how long a guest waits for a reply, automatically
- Thresholds can trigger alerts before a response delay becomes a problem
- Dashboards show response-time trends across staff, shifts, or properties
- This data works whether the channel is WhatsApp, e-mail, or an internal ticket

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- SLA data is captured automatically, with no manual timestamp logging
- Applies natively to the same WhatsApp channel guests already use
- Trend data helps identify which shifts or staff need additional support
- Faster response times connect directly to the guest experience driving reviews
