We use Freshservice to solve IT problems.
Stable platform with excellent functionality
What do you like best about the product?
Freshservice has always provided a stable platform to manage all our customer support needs. It's very easy and intuitive to use with a great support network. It's flexible & reliable and enables us to respond to all customer inquiries quickly & efficiently, whether direct, from our website or any of our social media platforms. The search functionality is excellent and reporting is simple with tags & group filters. Pricing is competitive and easily managed. The ability to merge, forward, private note or just reply to any ticket has proved very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not a lot to dislike! A couple of searches haven't brought back the results I'd expect and the reporting could be expanded to include data insights rather than focusing on agent performance, however you can always export all data to Excel to do your own analysis if required!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We deal with all correspondence through Freshservice, so this could be a delivery issue, a product complaint, a packaging problem, simple product information requests, feedback or sales and marketing leads. By having all the data in one place it's very easy to identify common specific problems, canned responses can be created making it quick & easy to respond. The SAAS approach means that we can utilise remote workers to respond to all tickets in a timely manner, even out of office hours.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd recommend Freshservice if you'd like to manage all correspondence quickly, efficiently & cost effectively. Very simple to install & excellent support when needed.
Freshservice review
What do you like best about the product?
The clean, simple interface. The speed of the system is very good. The asset management feature is very useful and has helped us consolidate two different asset databases into one. The phone app is brilliant, for many reasons but also because it has a barcode scanner that is useful for creating and updating hardware assets. We have had good feedback on the system from our users around the authority - we previously had a very complex, unwieldly system whereas they prefer the simplicity of the customer portal we have created with Freshservice.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few small, rough edges with the system. Some bugs occur from time to time, the support team are usually very good at responding to any tickets that we log on the system. Some features that are in the roadmap can sometimes take a while to be implemented. On the whole, however, these are small gripes and the overall experience of using Freshservice is a very positive one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Incident management, change controls, asset management, documentation and solution access.
The benefits that we have realised are an increase in productivity in the service desk staff and also the technical ICT staff - we spend less time on administration than we used to and more time actually responding to our organisations needs.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Spend time getting the setup correct before you go live.
Ease of use
What do you like best about the product?
Easy navigation and ability to customize views and ticket priorities. Also bulk responses can be sent out to a group of tickets making it easy to followup with clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that I cannot bulk change the ticket requester at the click on of a button.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Support related issues.
A very nice programm and GUI
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to open new ticket to merge them and keep the overview.
Also you can easy track the time that the Ticket is open and can attach items.
And overall a good gui.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
More resolved tickets with low time to finish it
Over a year and very happy
What do you like best about the product?
The Fresh Service platform is constantly improving their usability for both Tech Support side and End Users. The mobile application is updated regularly with great UI that makes it easy to track issues, problems and changes. Notifications make it easy to keep my finger on the pulse with our Operation.
What do you dislike about the product?
My company uses Fresh Service Solutions to post How-Tos for end users and Support admins. I wish there was one more level of separation so I could have a "Sr Admin" tier so I could post additional restricted notes for only the Sr Admins that I do NOT want other Admins to see or Contract notes, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We run a shipping terminal and have several business applications that integrate tightly. The main use of Fresh Service is to support issues present by users for triage. Promote them to Problems if they are reoccurring or require a system change. Then promote to a Change with CAB. The benefit to this is easily following the bread-crumbs of why a change was put in, scheduling it with multiple resources and always having that as a historical reference. Then we created a Solution which describes the expectation at a less technical level for all our end users to understand the expected behavior.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend taking a Trial if you are looking for a friendly issue tracking system. If you have multiple vendors, your team are technology or business analysts but not the engineers, this is a great platform. Track your company issues in a recorded location, no more e-mail nonsense!
Fast implementation, good defaults, good service.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the immediacy of the service, its easy to implement, easy to understand and works out of the box for the most part.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asset management needs more work, so does software management.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Incidents, services and problems are managed beautifully. Automations are easy to implement and integrate very well with all of them making for easy implementation of many services and a breeze to handle all sorts of tickets and problems
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the trial period to really get a hang of it. Support is quite good, use it too to learn what you can get to do with it.
It's been a great time!
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using FreshService since a year and it's been a great time! It helps me to get stuff going, work done in a short time and keep me and my day and the my team's day organized.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd like FreshService to have a feature like exporting reports from a search, i.e search all tickets containing "cellphone" and filters as such.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I manage a team of 07 IT Support analysts. We have everyday incidents, such as a mouse request and some as difficult as issues with a server or setting up a network from scratch. It has helped us to keep the demands organized under SLAs and priority levels.
Powerful and easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Very simple to setup. Interface is non-complex but provides enough functionality to capture most tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the project management module is one area that could use improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving the problem of ticket tracking and IT demand management
