Fan of Freshdesk
What do you like best about the product?
The canned response option and being able to integrate solutions from our website. Also it's visually organized and easy to manage tickets and keep track of their status.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the limitations you have if you're not an admin. I mean that is common for every program, but when it comes to canned responses, it's a tad annoying. You want to make sure everyone can see what you've created, or you want to be able to access other canned responses that an admin made and edit them, but can't.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our website uses Freshdesk as our main support platform. This is how we receive questions, complaints, requests and more. We open it to consumers, vendors, interested parties. It's a great way to communicate and solve issues. It doesn't time out which I appreciate because when you're looking up information on another page, you can come back and continue without having to log back in. Also the canned responses feature really makes a difference in cutting wasted time responding the same questions over and over again.
Simplified Customer Support Management
What do you like best about the product?
I like how simple Freshdesk is to use and it's not very hard to learn. I also like that you can create tags and sections in the forms to help us see where a true issue may be developing or manage data to know where we might need help for customers. It's handy if we're frequently seeing problems with billing or refunds, or just spam responses. We can label and manage that data.
What do you dislike about the product?
I truly like it and love the reporting we can pull.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find Freshdesk keeps everything organized, helping us manage help articles, tech concerns, and client issues efficiently. It reduces our email volume, allowing us to focus on clients truly needing help.
Intentional, Team-Friendly Features That Are Easy to Navigate
What do you like best about the product?
All the features are intentional, helpful for my team, and easy to navigate.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some items are price-gated, and jumping to the next level (instead of maybe just item add ons) is not feasible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team was answering tickets across 7 inboxes and 3 different platforms. Freshdesk centralized it so tickets are no longer missed or left behind.
Intuitive, Clean Interface with Powerful Automation and Ticket Management
What do you like best about the product?
Intuitive and easy to use. The interface is clean and user-friendly, which makes it simple to navigate and get started. The automation features are powerful and help streamline workflows. Ticket management is also great, making it easier to stay organized and keep track of requests.
What do you dislike about the product?
Reporting can be complex and sometimes difficult to navigate. I also experience occasional system lag, which can slow things down. Setting up automation is tricky and takes more effort than I expected. On top of that, the mobile app still needs improvement to feel as smooth and reliable as the rest of the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Freshdesk addresses the problem of scattered, untracked support communication by centralizing customer queries from email, chat, phone, and social media into a single, structured ticketing system. Rather than juggling issues across multiple inboxes and platforms, everything is captured in one place, organized, prioritized, and assigned through a unified dashboard.
It also helps solve the challenge of accountability and visibility. With clear ticket ownership, SLAs, and status tracking, requests are easier to monitor and far less likely to be missed. As a result, response times improve and follow-ups stay consistent.
Automation is another major advantage. Repetitive tasks such as ticket routing, canned responses, and status updates can be handled automatically, saving time and letting the team focus on more complex issues that need attention.
Reporting and analytics add further value by highlighting trends, bottlenecks, and workload distribution. This makes it easier to refine processes, support staffing decisions, and maintain service quality over time.
Overall, Freshdesk benefits me by improving efficiency, reducing manual work, increasing transparency, and enabling a more professional, consistent support experience.

Streamlined Client Support with Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I like Freshdesk because it helps streamline our processes around client support. I appreciate the ability to have different views, which allows us to toggle between them and manage our workflow efficiently. It makes context switching much easier for our team. I also find it helpful to have a trigger that shows new helpdesk tickets in a Slack channel, which keeps our team updated on new issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search isn't always effective and it can be hard to find historical tickets. Sometimes keywords don't return the results you would expect. There were some challenges in migration of data from the previous platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Freshdesk to manage helpdesk tickets and streamline client support processes. It makes switching between workflows easier with its different views, enhancing our workflow management.
Superb Centralised Helpdesk: Customisable, Easy Setup, and Powerful Automations
What do you like best about the product?
Superb centralised helpdesk for our IT Team, hugely customisable, and easy to setup and implement, with useful automations to streamline ticket creation and response and workflows. The additional of a mobile app that is clear and concise and easy to use is a fantastic addition. The Freshworks customer support and success team are approachable and respond in good time.
What do you dislike about the product?
For educational establishments it is expensive when moving to higher tiers, especially when some features could be of huge benefit and tiered to make more available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a fragmented and geographically-challenging estate of schools, and a distributed IT Support Team - and Freshdesk provides all customers, partner academies and other stakeholders with an effective and easy to use helpdesk.
