The customer service level is decent - people responded quickly with a desire to help out.
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can reach freshdesk support 24/7. Normally they will reply promptly, although occasionally there were agents who didn't manage to follow through the whole conversation - in these instances, it's quite annoying as you can't talk to someone else as the agent hasn't closed the window at FD's end.
I like that emails can be converted into a ticket form so agents can work on tickets easily. In addition, I like that there are different functionalities available for admins to monitor the agents' performance.

What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that tickets are assigned based on the ticket creation date. It should have more flexibilities, like by priority, etc.
For load balanced ticket assignment, if I have two groups and if I set that each agent is only allowed to receive max 1 ticket for both groups, then the agent will receive only 1 ticket assignment from either of the two groups. If I change the configurations, it could happen that each agent receives 2 ticket assignments of one group, but not one from each group. I'd like to see that tickets can be assigned to agents equally for each group.
In live chat with the Freshdesk agents, sometimes it takes a bit of the communication before the agents could understand the queires.
The difficult / troublesome thing of using Freshdesk is that once you've made a change to the setting, you'd need to think if the action would have any consequences to your other rules. Sometimes when you're not aware of an existing rule / change something without realising its impact, rules won't work and it would have affected agents' (on our end's) efficiency.
Also, I dislike the occasional bugs in Freshdesk. Someimes we are sure that we have saved changes, they didn't get saved and are reverted back to the original setting. I would hope the IT dev could be better at FD's end.

What do you like best about the product?

What do you dislike about the product?
The ticket satisfaction survey isn’t very deep. Difficult to integrate widgets in SharePoint.

Freshdesk Review
What do you like best about the product?
I love the adaptability of the product. It is very easy to configure and customize to a specific workflow. I also really like the ability to program automation to make my team more efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some seemingly basic functions that are lacking. The biggest one is the inability to blind carbon copy someone on a new outbound email from the system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Freshdesk has definitely increased the team's efficiency through the use of scenario automation and ticket templates. We spend less time manually recording crucial ticket data and that allows us to focus on solving the problem. It also keeps the data much cleaner.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be patient. Obvious and valuable changes do not come quickly.
