Quick to Adopt, Unified Dashboard and Automation That Boost Team Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite feature about Freshdesk is that our entire team was up and running without any actual training in a very brief period. We adore the fact that all our support channels are in one shared dashboard and that keeps everyone on the same page. The automation has helped us save a ton of time on repetitive tasks and the reporting has helped us track our performance as a team. It has sincerely allowed our collaboration to be much easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
The customization options are a bit limited in some cases when compared to other tools we have used, and the reporting is decent in some cases, though not as detailed as we need to undertake more detailed analysis. Delays on loading occasionally have been a slight inconvenience when dealing in high volumes of tickets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Freshdesk has assisted our team to centralize all the customer support requests in a single location which previously was scattered across various inboxes and channels. The automation has relieved us of much of the manual labor we used to go through, and has allowed us to actually solve problems, as opposed to managing them. All that it has done is to make our support process much more systematized and our customers much happier.
