Fantastic Experiance so far
What do you like best about the product?
Incident management, metric measuring, time management and capacity management. Added benefits include asset management.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that on the FS plans, everyone could have access to attach their FS instance to their own exchange server. As IT security increases, so does email security. Currently Freshworks as a whole uses Send Grid as a email forwarding service. Unfortunately in our business of using enterprise solutions, send grid get's automatically blocks as that email sending service is often involved in sending thousands of spam emails. This means most system admins will automatically block send grid IP addresses in their email filter servers. This is considered a standard across the enterprise community.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving tier 1 2 and 3 requests faster and more effectively tracking hardware repairs and repeat incidents.
Easy to use with great options

Integration with other systems like slack, emails etc is a fantastic option that saves times and makes it more approachable/

Unable to personalise in areas like uses or create macros for users makes it harder.

Freshservice - Ticketing System
What do you like best about the product?
We use Freshservice as ticketing system since the last 3 years.
It's a great software as a service with full functionalities required in a ticketing system.
It's being used worldwide in all our offices and it's very helpful for our business. We currently use it for the IT department and thinking to implement on other departments.
It helps us to track all the IT issues on a ordered manner.
The cost is good compared with other vendors.

What do you dislike about the product?
Being a SaaS we are missing on governance. There are different additional things we would like to implement, but not everything can be done. For example it's missing the invoices management..
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are tracking all our IT issues. The users are sending an email to freshservice and a ticket is immediately opened. The ticket then is assigned to the correct team based on the subject of the email.

User experience

The ease of use, the management, and how reliable it is with the reports

I would like to be able to export reports directly to Power BI and have more usability when implementing with PowerApps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
the day-to-day reports with the staff of my company, the registration of fixed assets, and the tracking we can carry out with them
Recommendations to others considering the product:
the ease of implementation and use, perhaps the price is somewhat high but it's worth it
Automate your support experience
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to customize workflows according to our specific use cases. The asset management module is well made and gives a lot of control and allows the user to track the assets effortlessly.
The main feature that I have loved is the workflow automator. The automator can do anything you want and it is very very helpful.

What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of access options for example access to modules are groups and departments based, would be more useful if it was user based.
Mail notifications did not work as configured and that was a huge drawback.
User accounts get locked after a few wrong password attempts and we are required to go to the support portal, raise a ticket and then wait for resolution, this can be provided on the front end itself in the admin console, thus enabling the users of the organisation with admin access to make the necessary changes.
Unable to reduce height in Asset Label designer, the asset labels are too big and it is not possible to physically paste them on the asset, its a huge let down that we have to go to third party apps in order to print our asset barcodes.
The portal is customisable right now, but it is not completely customisable, it can still be better.

What do you dislike about the product?
Could be little more advanced, more options to categorize tickets and support teams for example.
For Change Management this tool feels not yet comprehensive enough.
