We stopped using Gmail for sales and service

What do you like best about the product?
We have a team of 15 people - across our executive team, sales, support, customer onboarding and engineering - who help our free and paying customers. Help Scout gives us full visibility into every interaction so that we can get specialists quickly up-to-speed on a customer's needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the automating routing was available in the lower-priced edition. We do a bit of a workaround to route tickets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Providing efficient support to our prospects and customers.

What do you like best about the product?
I like that everyone's mailbox is easy to access. It's especially nice if someone is out of the office and you need to jump in to help someone out.

It doesn't always seem to update in real time which can be frustrating. Especially if you're trying to help someone and the email they're trying to send isn't coming through

We use HelpScout for customer contact. It's literally an essential part of our everyday workflow.

Helpscout used for IT Help Desk

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the how we can manage all the tickets, assign to a user, add internal notes, tags are easily created. Add call logs in the system. Reporting is great to measure how much tickets or issues we resolved. I like the feature of merging tickets if it is the same issue.
What do you dislike about the product?
When a ticket is submitted multiple times separately, with the same subject, it does not show the whole message, some of the messages are lost and not found within helpscout, you would have to go to the actual email to find the whole message.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing support desk and issues within the company. It helps reduce and automate tickets with this software. It provide reports to paint a picture on how the company is doing in regards to help scout.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very easy to setup and use, great tool to manage support tickets.

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy its ability to serve the unique functionalities of our roles. Its easy to search for conversations, to assign and organize to people in the company, and that we have full transparency.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that it does not offer smart text, we have to generate saved replies to get help on repetitive responses.

Help Scout allows us to communicate externally and still maintain our personal inboxes. Transparency allows us to have optimal flow with conversations and our customers.
