Great for multi-product teams!
What do you like best about the product?
I've evaluated almost all of the primary help desk tools and Freshdesk is the only one that really has an affordable rate for multi-product teams (especially when you're handling tickets via email, which ensures that tickets are filtered accordingly to product, versus "team name" - ticket name - ticket number; instead, you see product name - ticket name - ticket number or however else you'd configure it). Freshdesk is deeply invested in having their staff ensure you succeed, so everything from price to configuration functionality to feature set is all within range. They will also go the extra mile to ensure that you get help even if some of the product scope is outside what they support (e.g. development for the layout of the product, using CSS). It's by far my favorite solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its team is almost exclusively abroad which can sometimes mean miscommunications or difficulty in reaching support. They do try to eliminate a lot of friction in this realm, and mostly have succeeded, but it can be at times a bottleneck to getting things to work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used Freshdesk in a number of capacities, but I have found Freshdesk best when I manage multiple products under a single brand name (e.g. BrandA manages ProductB, ProductC, and ProductD). Unlike Zendesk which requires a high level subscription for this type of product support and some of the smaller brands which do not even support this kind of product offering, Freshdesk does -- and does it very well. Customization is highly encouraged and you really can create a superior product offering.
very user friendly
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use and set up. Even as a none-tech person I was not confused by the interface and environnment. It has the functionality we need.
What do you dislike about the product?
We had to stop using it because it's expensive. Now we're using another service, but I liked Freshervice better!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ticketing system and followup mostly
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A great tool if you can afford it.
Best Helpdesk yet?
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that the tool adapts for whatever you need to use. Freshdesk is a really customizable, so that means you can create your own type of work setting up custom rules or even building some app using It's on, really complete API.
What do you dislike about the product?
Freshdesk is constantly evolving as any software out in the market. So sometimes you can currently feel some kind of "lag" when using It. But that really depends on the current browser and how frequently you clean your browser Caches & Cookies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently I'm using Freshdesk as a Support tool keeping all the e-mails and "Tickets" set up on a way It'd never be feasible before. There are so many using Freshdesk but the main I suppose is the multi-channel support and the fact to control and reply to all your Tickets on your smartphone.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are whiling to have a really complete Support tool, and pay a low budget price for that, you should definitively use Freshdesk. And you don't even need to be a PRO, as the tool is intuitive and easy to use.
But if you still are stuck on some process you can for sure contact their Support (They are going to solve).

Good helpdesk/live chat software that has great potential
What do you like best about the product?
Ticket management is pretty simple. Without that kind of training, the interface is also understandable. Easy to respond to email customers in. Everything is clear and the fields required make reporting easy. It also has a very convenient multi-language feature and very rarely did we have any errors or downtime.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some things aren't always easy or intuitive. Like if a client chats in and enters their email wrong then you try to correct it in the contact and business details later to make sure it's associated, the entire ticket gets lost!
Also very inconvenient is that there is no possibility to create our own report only use pre-made ones.
