Freshdesk Integration Support
What do you like best about the product?
freshdesk support team was very kind and helpful in assisting with our SAML integration on a new freshdesk install
What do you dislike about the product?
i did not dislike anything the support team was fantastic
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
educational sector ticketing system
Recommendations to others considering the product:
simple and easy to use, IOS app integration and a simple web interface
Freshdesk makes issue management easy
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to sort and categorize tickets. Not just tickets owned by me, tickets can be ordered by groups, users, or other self defined criteria. And you can easily save any new sorting you do for use in the future.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am a bit hesitant about letting freshdesk control my email. I prefer to send email directly from my mail client. A lot of how we use freshdesk is for internal use only, so I don't like the feeling that I may accidentally send private info out. Freshdesk does a pretty good job of working around this. It can take a CC or a forward and turn it into a ticket.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We mostly use Freshdesk to manage our workflow. A lot of the tools built into it are for bosses, but we ignore most of that (like deadlines and reports about ticket completion and open tickets etc...) We mostly use it to share what everyone is working on, and if someone needs to hand off a job to someone else, they can just give them the ticket and all the info associated is in one place.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Freshdesk has the tools to manage workflow and track productivity. We did have some issues with inventory control, but that might be outside of Freshdesk's scope.
Implementing Freshdesk
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about Freshdesk is how user friendly it is, very seemless.
What do you dislike about the product?
There were a minor few communication issues, but all in all it was fine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Able to have all tickets in one place, and delegate them out accordingly.
Good features, good support
What do you like best about the product?
I like the pricing and features. And they kept us on the very first plan.
What do you dislike about the product?
The freshdesk roadmap is not clear for each plan.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One number for each support ticket.
Amazing customer support
What do you like best about the product?
FreshDesk support is always available, all support agents are amazingly friendly, knowledgeable and willing to help.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I dislike about FreshDesk support, I have been very happy with their service
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Adding customized tickets for reports, adding secondary support emails, troubleshooting
The Interface is Great Only Exceeded by Customer Support
What do you like best about the product?
I love the clean look of the original interface and the new Mint interface continues that same commitment to quality. I also find the fact the customer service to be very responsive, knowledgeable and helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
That you cannot blacklist a specific inbound email address. I love the fact that you can create special inbound email address on the fly (e.g. test24@mydomain.freshdesk.com). But it would be great if there was a way that one of those inbound emails could then be turned off to not even generate a ticket. We have probably nearly 200,000 spam emails that were created when one of our inbound emails got compromise. I know I can set up rules to immediately mark as spam, but it still creates a ticket.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking of tickets auto generated by software in our system. Managing feedback from people about the product. Tracking requests for feature enhancements.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look at your agent cost when figuring out how to use this. Although it is possible to share agents it is not recommended and gets confusing.
If you need better support, try Freshdesk
What do you like best about the product?
From the very beginning, I liked the simple and quick installation. There is also the possibility of multi-channel support (e-mail, phone, chat, social networks, messengers etc). There is support for several languages and time zones (for us this was critical, since we have several support departments). Also from mobile devices, you can get a quick overview of the whole situation, with access to all tickets with filtering and notifications. It helps me to be always up to date on all matters.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are minor comments on the usability of the interface, but they are minimal, so I will not even mention them. The service is excellent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are very pleased that we started to use Freshdesk. The whole process became fully automated, which saves time for our agents. As a manager, I really like the powerful reporting and complete statistics of our help desk.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Freshdesk is offered at an affordable price and free of charge for three agents. Therefore, you can easily try this service. Personally, I recommend it.
Brilliant Customer Service
What do you like best about the product?
Response time of customer service when dealing with a query
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing - its perfect for our company and its needs
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been able to monitor the telephone service we supply for our customers and understand areas in need of refining and training for the staff.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's brilliant for a small company in need of a helpdesk ticket software.
Not only tickets system
What do you like best about the product?
The possibility to have a multi-guests and teams management in addition to be capable of recording international incoming calls for sales or support queries.
Freshdesk has been an asset for managing tickets with teams not being in the same office nor on the same time zone. You can efficiently track all the different activities and pass on the information from a user to another one or to a group of users. The emails managed then decrease and so the time spend to deal with X emails on a monday morning. Sharing information and data becomes all of sudden easier and seamless.

What do you dislike about the product?
The automation in the emails treatments could sometimes be tricky to manage. A customer sending a ticket could have an automation of "proposed solutions" matching some keywords in the ticket, this awaiting for an agent to pick it up.
We've recently had issues with Freshdesk and after a month it is impossible to have an answer. We are astonished by the poor quality of support provided. Since they provide a support and tickets management system how ironic is that...

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Instant management of the customers issues with the Chat facility in addition to a good track and reporting in order to maximize the staff efficiency.
An improvement could also be the achievements for the team in order to get a higher recognition of the tasks done and build this in the bonus scheme of the team.
The reports section could underline better the origins of the requesters and tickets in order to have a better understanding of the different locations that could require a better attention.
