Lots of features, often terrible implementations and service
What do you like best about the product?
FreshService offers lots of features other ITIL/ITSM platforms don't: CMDB, forms, automations, incoming/outgoing webhooks. Pricing would be outstanding if the features worked as they should, but very often the platform feels like a beta product.
What do you dislike about the product?
Ooof, so much... Jamf inventory integration doesn't work and has never worked despite over a year of continuous troubleshooting with support. I know no one who has gotten FS's Jamf integration to work properly. I don't even know why they offer it. The admin panel is a mess, finding what you need often requires google searches. Support is OK to a point, but they tend to yes you to death, but don't follow up when they hit a wall in troubleshooting. Account managers change out every 3-6 months and are not able to affect much change when the product isn't delivering on its promise. Lots of little annoying "why can't I do this simple little thing?" moments: can't re-order articles within a support KBase, no error log for inventory syncs, no G Suite directory sync (just a crappy contact sync, which is not very useful). Typically every update released cuases a new UI goof, which results in an overall lack of progress in getting the product to where it should be.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We manage all IT, Finance, and Office requests via the support portal. The ability to create forms that trigger processes for on-boarding, off-board, data transfers has been the one overwhelmingly useful feature that has kept me from jumping ship. Frankly, I am sick of the shortcoming and actively searching for a more polished alternative.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
FreshService looks great on paper, it's less impressive when you actually use it. Yes it has a lot of features, but many of them are half-baked. It can be useful for sure and it's not the worst Helpdesk in the world. But it could be so much better if the quality control and UI was improved.
Simple and effective ticketing
What do you like best about the product?
It's simple, easy to configure, and there is a game element that adds a bit of fun to a rather mundane application.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be too simple, but if it were more complex then it would lose it's appeal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using FreshService to address incidents, fulfill requests, manage assets, provide self service solutions articles, and we're looking into rolling out the Onboarding module in the very near future.
Great support, and a flexible, versatile product
What do you like best about the product?
Single signon and the ability to integrate with so many other systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some things are not intuitive at first like figuring out how to change some properties of a ticket, or finding certain tickets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Service portal for our customers, time tracking for techs with Harvest integration, documentation that can be shared with clients, single sign-on with our AD logins, new user creation process
Simple, Effective service desk solution
What do you like best about the product?
Clear transparent system, easy to see who is managing what tickets. Can create workflows to automate some of the ticket admin
