I use Freshdesk for creating tickets for IT personnel. When any employee experiences an issue with their laptop, such as being unable to use the internet or facing other problems, they can easily email support@freshdesk.com, and a ticket is automatically generated on the portal. We can then assign the ticket to any engineer. Our organization uses Freshdesk for the ticketing portal, and we rely on it multiple times for ticketing purposes.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were utilizing the product to the best of our abilities. Aravind called to see about setting up a meeting to chat about the product and introduced me to Sushanth. Sushanth was exceedingly helpful, he helped me understand how to create a new report, and even taught me how to customize it in ways I was unaware were an option. The call got me excited to spend more time working with the product to see how better it can suit our needs. When I was unable to setup an automation that I wanted I reached out to Sushanth who immediately replied, and is helping me set it up. The customer service is phenomenal.
Freshdesk Automation and Custom Scenarios That Simplify Daily Work
What do you like best about the product?
After migrating to Freshdesk, we immediately appreciated the extensive automation options and the ability to create custom scenarios. This was crucial for us, we were able to configure the system to reflect our actual operations and simplify the team’s daily workload.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing major. We might be missing some features (mainly email notifications when something is tagged), but those are part of a higher-tier plan, and we understand that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our company spent a long time searching for a helpdesk solution that would meet our specific needs. For over 10 years, we relied on a tool with a Gmail-style interface. However, we gradually realized the need for a solution that would better align with our current workflow and the demands for automation, transparency, and efficient communication management in 2026. We were looking for a system that would adapt to us—not the other way around. We also highly valued the option to switch the interface to Czech, which made the adaptation process much easier for the entire team. The implementation was seamless. Minor third-party assistance was only necessary to address our highly specific requirements, not due to any limitations of the system itself. Today, thanks to Freshdesk, we have better-defined processes, a higher level of automation, and greater visibility across all communications. Overall, we are very satisfied with the solution.

The setup was very simple and straightforward, which made the transition easier for us.

One of the problems with Freshdesk is that it only supports one set of business hours, whereas we actually have four teams spread across different business hours and have different SLA business hours for different customers.

Ticketing has streamlined IT requests and has provided faster, well-documented issue resolution
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
Freshdesk has all features, including automatic ticket assignment, notifications, and reporting tools. Administrators with access can assign tickets to anyone. The user interface is very good, and anyone can easily learn how to assign and create a ticket.
Previously, when anyone faced an issue, they had to call IT, and there was no record of what was done or what the cause was. Now, with Freshdesk, tickets can be easily assigned to any engineer, who will provide the cause, explain why it happened, and give us the answer on how they resolved the issue.
Freshdesk is leading to faster resolution because the ticket is assigned to an engineer who will start working immediately.
What needs improvement?
As of now, Freshdesk has no inventory assignment. If Freshdesk could include the data of devices, it would be more valuable for all customers. Adding inventory details to the features would make it easier for us.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Freshdesk for the last three years, including two years in my current role.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Freshdesk is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Freshdesk is scalable, and the users are happy with it. They can easily send an email to support, and a ticket gets generated for the IT person.
How are customer service and support?
I have not used customer support often, but the customer support is good. I have tried it one or two times.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We have not used any other solution. We were doing it manually before.
How was the initial setup?
The setup cost and licensing are very good, but if Freshdesk could add the inventory features, it would be more valuable for us.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The setup cost and licensing are very good, but if Freshdesk could add the inventory features, it would be more valuable for us.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I have not evaluated other options before choosing Freshdesk.
What other advice do I have?
Freshdesk is a time saver and reduces the need for fewer employees. The service desk employee's workload has decreased with the help of Freshdesk. I recommend using Freshdesk because it is a good solution for the ticketing portal. I rate Freshdesk nine out of ten because it does not have any type of inventory record detail. I give this review a rating of nine out of ten.
