What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The solution has been very helpful engineering insights into the client's environment. We have been able to manage calls and incidents very efficiently which provides us with a clear understanding of the system warranty and the actions that we might need to take in terms of insights. The system is very dynamic and prevents any kind of oversights which ensures that there is smooth contract management.
We can also easily uphold SLAs and deliver enhanced services without breaching any agreements.
What needs improvement?
I would suggest that Freshservice enhance its technical capabilities, particularly when it comes to ICT network discovery. This will make a significant improvement in their software and these features match SolarWinds. It would include discovering infrastructure elements like switches and wireless devices. This would consolidate functionalities and eliminate the need for additional software and streamline the management process, making Freshservice an all-encompassing solution for both technical and contractual aspects.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Freshservice officially for almost 4 months due to a management contract. But my acquaintance with the software goes back over a year because my technical team has been using it on the recommendation of my technical manager.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The product is stable as it has not crashed.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability is really appreciated as it has helped us to onboard all our clients in a single platform and manage their cause by streamlining the invoicing processes. It is serving as a valuable tool for generating revenue. The scalability can be rated as a 9 out of 10 because it is always room for improvement.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was a very easy task. You just need to click around a few times and everything will fall into place. The UI is very friendly and it is not at all complicated with the preconfigured settings, making the setup more forward and requiring minimal input. It is a very easy and smooth process. The exact time frame of the deployment is not very sure but according to my technical manager, it does not take very long to set it up. After discussion, he proceeded with the setup in a day which was further configured and customised.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The cost at the current timing is very reasonable but as the product gains popularity, I anticipate it might become expensive. Fortunately my customers have been offered a generous discount making it more affordable for me and satisfying both my needs and customers requirement.
What other advice do I have?
My advice is for users to clearly understand their requirements before making a purchase, as Freshservice has numerous features, and buying unnecessary ones can be akin to wanting a Ferrari when a regular car would suffice. It's essential to know what is truly needed, given the extensive offerings of Freshservice. As for my overall rating, I'd give it a nine out of ten.
Great service!

Great ITSM for our business
What do you like best about the product?

Some of the abilities need to be upgraded but they are constantatly improving the product based on customer feedback.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to effectively and efficiently help our end users.
Easy and pleasant to use.
What do you like best about the product?
The clarity of the design. It is visually pleasent to navigate through tickets. It feels more like a social platform then ITSM. Color coding, activity, properties of the ticket and notes are all greatly distinguished on screen. Other ITSM products I encountered require from user some small amount of mental activity to review content. It might seem like minor inconvinience, but while working with some platform on a daily basis it just adds up during hours and days, leaving me with simple aversion to the tool. Freshservice is completely different on that. Of course, it is also the logic behind the design that makes it so good.
What do you dislike about the product?
Analytics part. It feels like something designed with other objectives in mind. Takes a lot to master and even then sometimes metrics seem to not follow logic applied. It requires checking the source data to understand what the metric and filtering is doing with the data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing and reviewing incidents. Filtering tickets, finding them, tagging for future reference, escalating, following activity of specific agents - all that is required in my role, Freshservice is greatly helping me.
