What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Freshdesk we used some local server with Sugar CE, and that was far from what we needed, there were no notifications to the agents, no customer portal to see the status and interract, no automation (or we didn't set it up right) and every now and then the harddrive of the server went bad or mem and we had to do the mainenance on the HW. We really needed a hosted solution for at least not have to maintaine the soft and hardware.
so far so good

Freshdesk has everything we need to have a professional, full-functioning customer support system. It handles our user guides and support tickets, making it easy on the admin side and the customer side. I like the flexibility of plans, as it can cover our needs as we grow..

Feature rich and easy solution for Service Desk.

Freshdesk is a great solution for managing service desk for Small and Medium Businesses. It can be easily customized and changes can be implemented almost instantaneously. It offers multiple communication channels and it is a very convenient way to keep track of tickets. Their availability is 100 percent and we have not encountered any downtime with them. Their mobile app allows users to manage everything on the go. Support staff is resourceful and professional. Another useful and userfriendly feature is the solutions section. This really helps in self-service of the Clients and allows us to add it our replies.

There is nothing that I would dislike about Freshdesk. However, it is a bit slow but it is still faster than many of its competitors.

Freshdesk offers good quality service at a reasonable price. It has scope for improvement but it will definitely solve your service desk needs. Team members can collaborate on a ticket. Chats and Phone calls can be tied and easily reviewed. Support team will assist you with all your queries. This product is definitely something to try before you choose a service desk application.
Freshdesk Support Experience
What do you like best about the product?
Although my issue turned out to resolved by myself, Karthik from Freshdesk Support continued to follow-up with me to understand the sequence of events that occurred. He stuck with it and in the end nailed how the issue happened and showed me some features in Freshdesk I did not know. It was extremely helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Our main issue with the Freshdesk product is handling child cases. It is not how we would like to do it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is our IT Helpdesk product. I am in the IT Department.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it you might like it.
Good support, but product is not for every business mdoel
What do you like best about the product?
Support guys, reports, being able to customize ticket fields, customer satisfaction surveys, ticket templates
What do you dislike about the product?
- The idea that a customer will use all of your features. Based on a different business model, people will choose to use what suits them. You cannot expect them to use everything and your system kinda doesn't work as expected when a customer doesn't use all of your features (assigning tickets, SLA policies etc).
- You can't just link one ticket to another.
- Ticket sorting is a bit confusing. You can't sort tickets by the last requester's update, but by the last modification, which would be ok if by modification you wouldn't consider ANY system or manual or any other type of modification. That caused my team to miss the SLA on some of our tickets. Hopefully, this will be sorted soon.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Due to the customizable ticket fields, we are really going in-depth with ticket reporting and we are providing much better and deeper reports to the other teams within our company.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't use the features you have on your current CS platform for granted. Check if Freshdesk has them before you switch your business over. I am 100% convinced that Freshdesk is perfect for a lot of business models, but if you are a bit specific, be completely sure that it can meet your needs.
