    Utilizing Help Scout to simplify day to day customer service

    Reviewed on Sep 16, 2025
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    Technical support is #1. They're team is constantly updating features and notifying their customers with new information and products in a way that isn't salesy or pushy, but purely informative.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The way emails are produced/created can be confusing with the newest update, but once you get the hang of it it's not so bad. I do prefer the original style from 2020 when we first started utilizing Help Scout
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Before Help Scout we would manually login to multiple different email platforms to respond to our customers. Now all email inboxes and live chat are all in one, convenient place.
