Hey Community 👋
We’re currently in the process of transitioning away from Google Docs and Spreadsheets for managing our customer implementations. I’ve moved most of our onboarding workflow into JIRA Service Management (JSM) and am looking for insights from others who’ve gone down this path.
Implementation/onboarding management is now handled in JSM.
We’re using the Plan view to visualize and track customer onboarding tasks.
Tasks can be assigned to either our internal teams or the customer, depending on ownership.
We plan to use the Customer Portal for customers to submit updates on their assigned tasks.
❗ Key Challenge: Form Collaboration
The toughest part so far is working with JSM Forms (ProForma):
We’d love customers to collaborate on forms, but Forms don’t allow shared editing or multi-user input natively.
Has anyone found a creative way to work around this? (e.g., breaking forms into smaller tasks, workflow hacks, add-ons?)
🧭 Exploring Customer Landing Pages
We’ve also started exploring Customer Landing Pages as a centralized space for:
Viewing open onboarding tasks
Accessing documentation
Submitting forms or updates
Would love to hear:
Have you used Landing Pages successfully for customer onboarding?
How did you structure them to make it easy for customers to use?
What tools or configurations made them most effective?
Our overall goal is to streamline customer onboarding while also providing a great experience through JSM.
Would love to hear from others:
What’s working for you?
What pitfalls should we avoid?
Any cool use cases or workarounds you’ve implemented?
Appreciate any feedback or ideas you can share — thanks in advance! 🙏
