If you only find out about the problem when the client complains, tools like **Slack, PagerDuty, Opsgenie, and Jestor** are the solution — the choice depends on whether you need technical server alerts or process warnings for the management team.

### **Don't let the deadline die**

The worst time to act is after the SLA has breached. Proactive management requires escalated alerts: a friendly warning with 4 hours left, a serious alert with 1 hour left, and a notification to the director if it breaches.

### **What managers are looking to solve (Pain Points)**

- **Passive management:** Having to log in to see what is late.
- **Breached SLA:** Missing the deadline due to pure forgetfulness.
- **Inattentive team:** The technician didn't see that ticket was urgent.
- **Unhappy client:** Notifying the client of delay only after they ask.

### **Why Jestor stands out in Alerts**

This is where Jestor stands out by delivering all this in practice:

- **Time Triggers:** "When 30 min left to expire, send Slack to #urgent channel."
- **Escalation:** "If breached, change owner to Manager."
- **Conditional Colors:** The Kanban card changes from Green to Yellow then Red automatically.
- **Client Communication:** Send automatic apology email or new ETA if breached.

### **Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)**
