    Effortless Support Management with Fast Setup and Stellar Service

    Reviewed on Jan 07, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    What I like best about Freshdesk is its simplicity and speed to value, especially for support-focused teams.
    Freshdesk can be set up with minimal configuration compared to larger enterprise platforms.
    It excels at handling tickets, SLAs, automations, and multichannel support (email, chat, phone).
    Freshdesk provides responsive and helpful customer support, along with clear documentation and resources that make it easy to resolve issues quickly.
    The platform is used daily by support teams to manage tickets and customer interactions, making it a core tool for day-to-day operations.
    It's also easier integrate.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Freshdesk works well out of the box, but it becomes restrictive when you need highly customized workflows or data models.
    While integrations exist, they are not as deep or flexible as enterprise platforms like Salesforce
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Freshdesk solves the problem of managing customer support efficiently without complexity and it is very cost effective.

    Effortless Customer Support with Intuitive Interface and Powerful Automation

    Reviewed on Jan 06, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    What I like best about Freshdesk is how simple and organized it makes customer support. All customer conversations, emails, chat messages, and tickets come into one place, so nothing gets lost. This makes it very easy to track issues and respond on time. Another thing I really like is the clean and user-friendly interface. Even a new team member can start using Freshdesk quickly without much training. Everything is clearly labeled, and workflows feel natural. The automation features are also very useful. Freshdesk can automatically assign tickets, set priorities, and send notifications. This saves a lot of manual effort and helps the support team focus on solving problems instead of managing tickets. I also like the collaboration features; team members can add internal notes, share context, and work together on complex tickets without exposing internal discussion to customers. Overall, Freshdesk feels like a reliable and easy-to-use tool that fits well into daily support operations.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    One thing I dislike about Freshdesk is that some advanced features are available only in higher plans. For small teams or startups, this can limit how much value you get from the lower-tier plans. Another drawback is that reporting and analytics can feel basic unless I upgrade. While standard reports are helpful, deeper insights and customization sometimes require extra configuration or higher pricing. Sometimes automatic rules can become complex to manage as the number of workflows grows. If not well organized, it can be hard to understand why a ticket behaved a certain way. Performance can also slow down slightly when handling a very large number of tickets, especially during peak support hours.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Freshdesk solves the core problem of scattered and unorganized customer support communication. Without a proper support system, customer issues come through different channels like email, chat, and social media, making it hard to track and respond efficiently. Freshdesk brings all these interactions into one unified ticketing system, which helps ensure that every customer request is handled properly. It also solves the problem of slow response times. With automation, SLAs, and priority rules, tickets are routed to the right team members quickly. This helps me respond faster and meet customer expectations more consistently. Another major benefit is better visibility into support operations. Freshdesk allows me to see how many tickets are open, who is working on what, and where delays are happening. This visibility helps improve team performance and identify bottlenecks early. Freshdesk also helps solve the problem of lack of collaboration in support teams. Internal notes, shared ownership, and team workflows make it easy for multiple people to work on the same issue without confusion. This is especially useful for technical or complex customer problems. It improves customer satisfaction by keeping communication clear and transparent. Customers receive updates, confirmations, and responses in a timely manner, which builds trust and confidence in their support process. Another important benefit is knowledge management. Freshdesk allows creating help articles and FAQs so customers can find answers on their own. This reduces repetitive tickets and frees up support agents to focus on more important issues. Freshdesk also helps with scalability. As the business grows and ticket volume increases, workflow, automation, and reporting can scale without changing tools, this makes it suitable for both small teams and growing organizations. It also supports multi-channel support so customers can reach out using the platform they prefer while their support team manager has everything in one place. Overall, Freshdesk benefits me by making customer support organized, efficient, collaborative, and scalable; it reduces chaos, improves response quality, and helps deliver a better customer experience with less operational stress.

    Integration Issues and Disjointed Experience with Freshdesk

    Reviewed on Dec 29, 2025
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    It seems like their software is built with all kinds of companies in mind. This could be a good thing, but also a bad thing as it feels bloated and sometimes difficult to use as the add-ons and integrations require extra subscriptions and tech knowledge to integrate.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Our experience with Freshdesk was just fine. In order to get the software to work how we needed, we needed other integrations (for text messaging) that were complicated to set up, kept breaking and didn't work consistently. Their platform is difficult to navigate as there are different software pieces for calling, messaging, emailing, etc. It felt a bit like it was Frankensteined together.

    Additionally, their customer service is just ok. We actually cancelled our account this year and they wouldn't issue a refund even though we cancelled ONE DAY after our subscription renewed. Unfortunately I'll have to contact my bank to get the rest of my money back. I would suggest looking for another platform besides Freshdesk.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Customer service and customer self-service.
