  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This software is incredibly user-friendly and jam-packed with features and plug-ins. Also, Freshdesk helps us evaluate the productivity of each agent so we can set goals for each person on the team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Freshdesk does not have a robust selection of themes to customize the appearance of the support portal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The interaction with our team members has improved, because it is very easy to assign emails to the right department and the right person within that department.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Freshdesk is a robust helpdesk platform, which offers all the key helpdesk features.

Good helpdesk/live chat software that has great potential

  • November 07, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

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.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a ticketing and email/ chat system. Its good for small- medium level enterprises and fulfills all the basic requirement of ticketing system but we had difficulty with this software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider a trial first and feel free to ask their customer service team questions.

Freshdesk provides a rich feature set and allows for customization

  • October 30, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love that the Freshdesk system allows for customization, including writing your own code in order to increase functionality of the support desk. In addition, there are many integrations available, including with the Zoho suite and JIRA software system.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't really much I don't like about how Freshdesk works and performs. The only reason we're moving in another direction is to reduce cost by moving everything under one vendor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Freshdesk solves are Customer Support business problem. It provides a wonderful Help Desk for submitting tickets, reviewing Knowledge-base articles, and Forum Posts by other users of our software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Freshdesk is a great software solution for the Help Desk at it's price range. Definitely consider this software and see if it fits your needs and budget.

A couple more features would make it perfect!

  • October 29, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Here at my workplace, we use Freshdesk and really enjoy it. Being able to auto assign tickets and keep track of everything has been a huge help for us.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really wish it would allow you to create templates to use in different common tickets. For example. We have a lot of people who email support about forgotten logins and how they can create accounts. These kinds of questions don't need detailed replies as they are the same each time. The ability to add a template for login info or account creation would speed up those repetitive emails a lot!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to provide fast responses without missing any questions. A lot of our reps develop solid relationships with customers, but the tradeoff is that they switch to personal emails quite often. Freshdesk's auto-assignment lets them keep that personal touch for assigned clients while keeping the ability to track things and prevent missed emails in their personal inboxes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
They are definitely trying to improve their software. They recently upgraded their entire interface and we love it!

I like best the use of the ticketing system which allows all of our team members to keep track of various projects and various tasks that need to be completed on a day to day basis.

It allows us to prepare for future team members to be able to train properly and effectively.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be sure to understand all of the functions of this prodcut as it can be very beneficial to growth and development of all of the team members who uses the platform. It allows you to be able to track ticket with your various customers. It allows you create documentation that can be used as quick answers for any emails that come in to your team. You are also able to customize how your response emails read to your customers by editing it all within the settings.

This platform can help you save time and be very organized throught any day to day operations.

I encourage anyone to use this platform or a platform that is developed by freshdesk to be able to succeed and go above and beyond the call of duty.

Freshdesk helps our support and help desk have all communications channels they need to offer consistent top notch support for our clients and help desk for our company staff!

Great software with fair pricing tiers and good bang for your buck

  • October 23, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easily accessible historical tickets, robust reporting, easy import and export. Customer service is good. Pricing is reasonable. Easy to set up and admin, very nice look/feel and performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the setup is a bit complicated. Could be due to our use of single sign-on but while it is supported it can be a hassle to set up. I also don't much care for the forced change to a new theme, change for changes sake is not something I want in an enterprise software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Primary ticket management, job intake and time tracking on incidents. Reporting on workloads. A central knowledge base for customers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Freshdesk offers nearly the same benefits as the other main competitors but does it for less without slacking on support or other features.

Awesome front desk automation for any IT business

  • October 22, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It helps automate, organize, and manage all our incoming emails. It has a really nice UI and filter features for the incoming emails too. It works great for small and medium businesses.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a little confusing to get started with at first. Our business does have a wiki that we use for new user documentation though so that helped.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We solve all our overwhelming email needs with this software. All front staff employees are able to respond to the same emails and have their email chains saved. Awesome tool!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you don't have an email solution for your business look into freshdesk it is great!
