Ticketing made easy with Slack integration and zero cost for the basics

  • March 31, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The integration with Slack, The ease of use and hability to track all clients support questions
What do you dislike about the product?
The search features could be improved, I do not like the search and the conversation display, it does the job, but it should have a makeover
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Client support and SLA times checked
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the free version it's grest and just works, as I said earlier in this review, I do not like the search engine, but in reallity it gets the job done. when it comes to service and usability it has a great cost / quality racio. You can also import your data from Zendesk, that was a plus for a free service. We are now considering to upgrade our account from Spout (Free version) to Blossom.

Freshdesk makes our IT Department more efficient.

  • March 30, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the fact that all of our tickets come in to a single location where we can manage and assign them to make sure we are as efficient as possible. Most importantly - I love that users can just send an email to our helpdesk describing their problem and a ticket is automatically created. There are also many automation features that are super handy. For example, you can automatically assign tickets by the content they contain. This could be keywords, phrases, etc. You can also have time based events that re-open tickets or automatically reply to the requester if no one has responded to them in a certain amount of time. Our organization loves it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only major annoyance I have is when closing or resolving a ticket. Our staff are very eager to say thank you and often reply to the automated helpdesk email simply saying thank you or some other quick response. This ultimately re-opens the ticket because Freshdesk just sees the response. No matter how many times we say - no need to respond if the ticket was resolved, they still ultimately say thank you and re-open the ticket.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Freshdesk has made us much more organized and efficient. We used to be inundated with emails. Often, these emails were to the wrong people which forced us to forward them to the correct person. Furthermore, these emails accidentally got lost or buried in a stack of other support emails and then people didn't get the support they needed. We are able to track how many tickets we close and monitor productivity.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend using this product. It does everything we need to make sure we take care of our customers.

There really is nothing major that pops out as a 'dislike-able' matter for me :)

Loads of benefits in this program, too many to mention problems to be solved though, not much as your team at Freshdesk has been taking very good care of us.

Solid white label option; wish there were better user permission types

  • March 16, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We use Freshdesk as an integrated support center with our technology platform. They had the most white label friendly features to get set up.

They have integrations to systems like Salesforce so we can see details on a customers while replying to inquiries.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's difficult to have "side" conversations with our sales team on tickets their clients are on. It requires us to have these outside of freshdesk, or have a separate ticket entered, which is redundant. We wish there was an option to have "viewers" that wouldn't cost as much as an admin, or ideally, no cost extra at all.

Also wish their was a better surveying tool to record how successful the exchanges go. Time and responses alone aren't telling enough and the happy or sad face survey is too light to tell how we did.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Taking care of client inquiries in an efficient manner that is cataloged. It's very helpful for us to allocate team members time based on inquiry topic, have historical record of conversations.

Having solutions to scale common questions for both customer and internal staff.

Fast, easy and reliable software for easy support operations

  • March 14, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
easy setup makes it super fast to start operating inside Freshdesk. Without hassle I could streamline our incoming orders into ticket system. And it's great so far that for small company like ours is curently it is comepletely free.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are typical issues for such software with people writing from various mail and creating multiple tickets addresses but the merging works fine. However the most annoying thing right now is that I have to manually improve my responses that are BCC'ed to our CRM (they are marked as send to help mail address instead to customer with an account in CRM.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automated responses to every fresh ticket makes our Support more professional and aligned with canned responses to use by support team makes all the processes faster. There are also plenty of insights into the work of employees about how they perform and what could be potential improvements to be made.

Great Tracking Software

  • February 27, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The scalability of the product is great. You can start small and then add on as you go.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cost to scale. It can be a bit pricey for a small business to scale the product, but it's definitely worth the investment.

managing support tickets and internal knowledge base

Start with a single agent and add on as needed. Also, go with the second level plan as you can brand the front-end.

Capable and scalable - great support solution

  • February 21, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Freshdesk is at its best when corresponding by email. The entire thread is visible and searchable. The editor works quite well for dropping in images and hotlinks. Lots of keyboard shortcuts make things faster.

Search function is fairly powerful, though a bit obtuse at times.
What do you dislike about the product?
Contact info should be easier to copy and paste without clicking on things. Occasionally a draft email will get lost. Overall, not much to complain about.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Freshdesk lets us keep track of customers, regardless of where they are in the sales flow. CRM can make sure we don't forget about customers, but it's Freshdesk that keeps track of what's actually going on. It works great with multiple users. The Solutions section is particularly useful for us, being able to insert pre-written responses as well as publishing a Knowledge Base on our website.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is not much that I would improve. Freshdesk will keep track of customer contact, allow for notes and can even handle VOIP use.
