Overview of Service Level Agreement - SLA
An agreement that bounds the service provider and the customer is known as service level agreement. Service level agreement consists of a framework that tells what services customers will receive. In laymen term, an SLA is a contract between the provider and the end-user, which defines the level of service that is expected from the provider. These are mostly output-based, and its purpose is to define nature, quality simply, and scope of service customers will receive.
Different Levels of Service Level Agreement
Customer-Oriented Service Level Agreement
It covers all the services given to individual customer groups.
Service-Oriented Service Level Agreement
A large number of customers availing a particular service signed this agreement with the service provider.
Multi-level Service Level Agreement
Divided into levels by sets of customers for availing the identical services, in the same SLA:
Corporate Level: It covers all the affairs which are identical for the entire organization.
Customer Level: It covers affairs that are particular for a customer. While covering the issues related to specific service is the job of service level.
Service Level Agreement or more commonly known as SLA is a Document that exists between a user and a service provider. Even though this Document does not provide any details on how the service is to be delivered, but it gives a measurable framework for the provision of that service. Some of the ways which are used to define the SLA can be the meantime that can exist between failures or an acceptable level of downtime that is mutually agreed upon in an agreed time frame, it can also include support response and resolution times.
Benefits of Service Level Agreement
No Unrealistic Expectations
Most of the customers are frustrated when their expectations are not met, whether these expectations are realistic or not. A comprehensive and well defined SLA helps to manage the expectations effectively by communicating thoroughly the abilities that are present in the service provider.
Complex Issues can be Simplified
Most customers are not interested in how the service works. What they all want to know is how the service will affect them. The SLA can help in the description of the issues that may come forward and how these issues can be resolved if the response is not good enough or satisfactory.
