Great For Creating a Competitive Support Team

  • October 22, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Like the title says, I really like the ability you have to "game" E-Mail support. Our office has competitions to see who answers the most emails and who is the most consistent. Ever since using the gaming feature we have significantly increased productivity.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how after I close a ticket (finish answering a question), the ticket is extremely hard to find again if you realize you made a mistake. There is not a "sent" section which makes things difficult. I also wish there was a way that only certain administrators had the authorization to assign emails/tickets to different people on the team. It gets a little frustrating when other people start assigning you to E-mails that they could answer just fine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to stay on top of our E-Mails and not fall behind. In the the past, the team would let certain E-Mails fall through the cracks. When we miss E-Mails we are affecting the business negatively. The gaming/competitive features were unexpected and added an extra dimension to our IT support team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The gaming feature adds another dimension to competitive IT teams. It creates a culture of inclusion and transparency.

With freshdesk you can keep on touch with your clients

  • October 18, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like having a ticket system. Before using Freshdesk the communication with clients was super messy and we lost a lot of information within mails, calls and such, Now, using Freshdesk everything is in the ticket. I personally LOVE having the possibility of adding private notes to other teams of my company, to help solving the issues
What do you dislike about the product?
The dispatchr configuration is not so intuitive. You need time to learn how to use it and sometimes, even when you know how to configure it, you can get a little bit lost. But that's the only downside I find in Freshdesk
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We started solving faster the issues and now the comunication with clients is more transparent. No one can specualte now, neither us or the client: every information given or needed is in the ticket. Also, when a new collegue starts working in the company is easier to give him / her context of the clients, by making them watchers of some crucial tickets.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If the comunications with your clients is getting messier as the company and the responsabilities are growing, maybe it's time to start using a ticket platform. Freshdesk is a very good one!

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
An extremely powerful customer support tool. It allows us as a company to track and prioritize trouble tickets and other tasks while maximizing our efficiency. Increases productivity and dramatically impacts the user experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
It did not offer the CRM tools I needed for the rest of my business. If I wanted to integrate those tools through Freshsales, I would be paying a hefty price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used Freshdesk for time tracking services. I also used it as a portal for my clients. FreshDesk is customizable, has multiple ticket options to choose from and is ridiculously easy to configure and use. It's perfect for a small to medium-sized business. We were shopping around for a helpdesk replacement and this was on the list. I'm overall satisfied with the experience.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Customizable White-labeled Quick to deploy App integrated, works with Bomgar and google drive Easy to use Great reporting. Good product so far, we have been live with it a month or so and no complaints yet.

In addition, Freshdesk has allowed us the ability to create an online solutions database for all of our clients/agents to access for quick and independent resolutions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one downside to Freshdesk is the lack of comprehensive reporting options.

I like having tickets for support/projects to be able to keep up with my workload; we also use pivotal along with Freshdesk; I like that you can choose tags to filter your view; categories for like IT, Dev, other parts of the company by software package for quicker resolution for our customers.

Freshdesk offers an effective support service for your organization.

  • September 27, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One of its main benefits is the excellent flow of communication, thanks to this tool we can maintain contact effectively and prodcutively with our customers, since before the process was only through email what sometimes caused it not to be efficient, that is, the emails were not read at the time or were not sent effectively and other inconveniences that made the communication not as efficient as before.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my opinion, it seems to me that the tool is somewhat complex when you start using it, which causes a delay when you train a staff so that you can use it in your work activities, and we know that time is an aspect important for any organization, by which organizations are in need of finding productive and efficient tools when implementing them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Freshdesk in different departments of the organization as a means of communication, which allows us to meet the needs of our customers, that is, through this tool we always keep in touch with the client to respond to their concerns or doubts they present about our products or campaigns, we keep communicated by email, social networks, telephone or chat. And so to respond to your requests as soon as possible. Not only do we use the tool to contact customers but we also use it with team members within the same company to give our point of view of the projects that they want to carry out.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a tool with suitable functions for all types of companies, that is, communication is important in every organization, which is why Freshdesk is ideal because through it you can maintain communication both externally and internally. Therefore, every organization could incorporate it into its activities either to communicate with members of a team within the organization or with customers and suppliers outside the organization. Freshdesk offers you effective and productive results through an excellent communication flow.
