Great Platform from an Administrator's prespective.
What do you like best about the product?
- Streamlines the Customer Support Process
- Easy to use for our employees once they receive implementation training
- Centralized place for communication records between employees and customers
- Ability for automation through Canned Responses, tags, and threads.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that the platform is dependant on licenses for users.
The platform already has a fee for initial purchase, plus a monthly subscription fee. Should the need for more user licenses arise as the organization grows, as will our monthly subscription for Freshdesk.
The subscription based model being adopted throughout the business word is quite unfortunate. Gone are the days of a one time purchase.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Managers can validate the process taken by their employees for Customer Support.
- Records Management - The organization has a place for all customer communication records, should they ever need to be reference.
- Triage and Task Assignments - Freshdesk provides the Customer Support team with clear responsibilities outlined for customer responses.
User-friendly interface and manages tickets very well
What is our primary use case?
It's our main ticketing portal. We track all records, deploy responses to customers, and assign separate credentials so they can comment on the status of their tickets. It's a good tool to track, respond, and manage tickets and customer portfolios.
What is most valuable?
It has a user-friendly interface and manages tickets very well. It's easy to use and integrates with other tools. We can embed Jira into it, link Jira tickets with Freshdesk tickets, and use it for our knowledge base. If we want, we an upload our knowledge base. The canned responses feature is great for reducing response time.
What needs improvement?
It would be helpful to pull reports or schedule them based on agents, users, ticket numbers, or responses.

Great way to handle customer emails
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Freshdesk at work to handle customer emails, and it's been quite effective. The ability to assign tickets, leave notes for colleagues, and categorize has significantly improved our workflow. We use it every single working day. Our customers benefit from the support portal as well. Recently, we upgraded to customize its appearance with our own colors and fonts.
What do you dislike about the product?
While there are minor issues, such as occasional attachment loss in lengthy email threads and the non-saving of newly started emails (as opposed to replies), Freshdesk's proactive approach in seeking feedback is a positive aspect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The support portal allows customers to find answers to their questions independently. Additionally, they have the option to submit new tickets or send an email that they initiated. All these interactions converge in our ticket inbox, where we can assign queries to the most suitable colleague based on expertise, whether it's in design, web development, administration, etc.
