Simple but powerful

  • February 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity of the product. Easy to setup and easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish there was a more extensible API for interacting with other in-house application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Help Desk / ticketing solution. FreshDesk has allowed us to focus on our products, services, and customers without worrying about maintaining our own help desk application.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The freemium version allows you to get started and use the product for as long as you need to, before you bring your entire team onto the platform.

So far so good

  • February 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, good interface. Good administration tools. Good reports and ticket tracking.
What do you dislike about the product?
Doesn't always pull in emails from the emails setup. Could use better default SLA policies. Would be nice to have a default out of the office dispatchr based off business hours rather than having to create one from scratch. It's relatively easy to do but you have to look for it and how to set it up on the web instead of via in app help.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Good tracking of support tickets, decluttering email, better customer service.

Simple but complete solution

  • February 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It has everything you need for closed loop communication and ticket dispatch without some of the extra expense tracking features and inventory you'll find in more advanced solutions. For an internal IT team with a separate system for inventory and time tracking this has been a God send.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice to have the ability to create a second customer portal for other internal teams without having to worry about multiple admin portals. We'd also love to see some solid O365 group calendar integration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our help desk staff was struggling to stay on top of things when we were working out of a shared mailbox. It was hard to figure out who was going to work on a task and difficult to figure out if it was completed or not. With Freshdesk we've just hit our 10000th ticket and we can't imagine a world without it.

Freshdesk is Great

  • February 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The user friendly interface. The phone app is also amazing. (A lot of other helpdesk companies have a really bad phone app).
What do you dislike about the product?
No project board. We usually create a ticket for projects we work on for a long duration of time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We solve all I.T related issues. Benefits include keeping track of tickets/user request easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is simple to use and easy to manage. Cheap cost as well.

Very Pleased with Freshdesk

  • February 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Freshdesk is easy to setup and and easy to use. When we've had special needs (and we've had a lot of them), we've been able to easily configure an app or engage with Freshdesk's Customisation Team to build a special app to perform more automated functions. All along, with a team at Freshdesk that is most pleasant to work with.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't much that I dislike, but I have to bring up the content management part of Freshdesk does need improvement for what we do in our company. We heavily use the knowledge base as an online help center for our 8 different products and have asked for some improvements to help manage our articles better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Freshdesk was our company's first attempt at customer support of our externally-faced software products. Before this, our IT team handled all support because all support was internal. When we launched into externally-faced software, we had a need to support our customers in a different manner. In addition, all of our help was paper-based and required a release to update content. Freshdesk significantly reduced our frustration over providing help content and now our team can change content on the fly without having to request a release to do so. It's also reduced our employee's frustrations on finding the right help at the right moment of need. We focus highly on our content providing targeted help content in the moment of need and so management of that content was critical in our long term performance support strategy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
With any selection of a product like Freshdesk, make sure you come up with clear requirements of what you must have in a solution. I did this and had 10 must haves. The two products I selected as finalists met all 10 must haves, but when it came down to it, the friendliness and willingness to help me get my solution right was what drove me to Freshdesk (not to mention the cost differential).

Superb ITIL tickedt management software

  • February 15, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Intuitive layout makes using the system really easy, stock reporting suite is superb - everything an IT manager working to SLAs under and ITIL framework could need.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing - it just does what I want it to in and intuitive way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Management of tickets within a SaaS business. I manage the 2nd line team and this has been invaluable in tracking tickets and delivering against SLAs. We use it to report into the business and drive business decisions around staffing and delivery of service.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Well worth looking at, it is a slick, feature rich solution that is easy to integrate and allows you to really up your game with the delivery of support and self-service functionality to your own customers.
