"Ideal for for Business Communication"
What do you like best about Freshchat?

Freshchat provides chat support for businesses and the feature I like most is WhatsApp Business Integration & E-Mail Notifications to customers once they come offline. I've been using Freshchat for the last 3 years and most of the essential features are free of cost. We have paid for Slack Integration and E-Mail Notifications when a customer comes offline.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

Mobile App needs to be improved, we cannot see a user online on the mobile app whereas we can get online users on Web Portal. A Feature suggestion : With AI embedded quick responses suggestions should be there while writing responses to our customers this with help businesses a lot.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

It enables WhatsApp Business Integration which is useful and customer insights are available in Freshchat dashboard with searchable customer chat history helps us manage customer conversation efficiently.

"Freshchat Omnichannel experience"
What do you like best about Freshchat?

It has an easy to use interface. Their integrations with ChatGPT align with current trends and have a reliable and interactive Reporting and Analytics tool. Their customer support is exceptional and prompt in responding.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

They can improve their notifications system. Some key notifications don't show up in inbox window. Their mobile App needs improvements in pulling in data from Instagram. IG posts and stories don't show up in incoming chats on the App which makes it difficult to respond.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

It has combined all our customer communication channels, streamlining the overall process. It has made contact list maintenance easier and increased our productivity in general

"Quickly and easily contact with client through Freshchat portal"
What do you like best about Freshchat?

It's awesome as we can serve our clients from anywhere. We can use pre-written replies (Canned responses ) for frequent live chat queries. All Convseration done with client's are saved as ticket. Another fetarue is that, we can add the client contact details on Freshchat portal and If an offline chat ( Non- business day) is received, in that case, we can create a Ticket and revert by email also. We are using Freshchat portal more than 6 years and Truely fully managed Live Chat portal and we LOVE our live chat features and our client's also love.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

Sometime stuck but it's normally observed when poor internet connection.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

As Freshchat integration with our website hence, our client's are eailsy connecting us through chat box for queries resolution. And Freshchat provide the live chat option and we can quickly reply to them in the same window.

"Super easy and i personally love Freshchat"
What do you like best about Freshchat?

The canned messages helps out a lot and also DVA. I think having all the messsages saved also makes it easier to figure out what needs to be done and how to personalize the can to fit the situation at hand.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

The only downfall would be trying to get the cans personalized with the correct information pertaining to the CMs account before it tells you to resolve the chat.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps me get the correct infrmation to the cardmember.

"Overall Experience with Freshchat."
What do you like best about Freshchat?

It is good, fast, and smooth which meets the criteria of giving the solutions to issues of the customers via different channels connected within the organisation.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

Freshchat doesn't have an auto-solving mechanism like when we are handling particular customers at that time executives are busy solving the queries of the existing customers on live chat. Still, those customers who are in the queue should not be unheard of for there issues so the fresh chat should slowly start solving the customer's issue at least in the initial stage so the customer will feel engaged. It will hold retain the customers in the particular business rather than giving bad reviews of products and customer service.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

Freshchat is a medium for communicating with customers.I use it to solve the queries of the Doctors and Business Development Executives via chats and it is helpful as it is smooth, fast, and reliable for my work.

"Great product for customer support"
What do you like best about Freshchat?

The ability to customize the chat, being able to provide some information about the agent to the customer as well typing indicators, being able to add attachments, etc.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

Unable to customize the chat window for multi-organizations. Since we're managing multiple organizations, we are unable to customize each organization's chat window and it would be great feature to be added with future releases.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

Freshdesk is making it easier for our live-chat agents to talk with customers across the different organizations we manage, all into a single place, seamlessly and without any struggle. Plus the canned responses really help a lot.

The ability to access and back date queries and manage backlog. The fact that it refreshes so quickly and updates equally as fast. Also the ability to input canned responses for the ease of assisting more effectively.

It solves issues such as record keeping and that benefits us because we are able to go back and assist a customer who came in a while ago and needs feedback on a query.

"In my view, one of the especially beneficial when it comes to interface."
What do you like best about Freshchat?

Freshchat is used in many organizations where I have worked, and it is a really efficient way to use the feature because it is convenient, simple to use, and highly helpful.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

Such problems don't exist in my opinion, and it really does reduce the amount of effort. In that situation, the Intelliassign is the best alternative because it is the best option in terms of work, as I will discuss below.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

Yes, it is one of the best option one organization could have, I personally prefer the Intelli Assign the best option, in my organization we used to sufer to reach out FRT but as per using the IntelliAssign is my personal favorite.

"Very good product for management insights!"
What do you like best about Freshchat?

The most helpful for me is the analytics panel to monitor our team's performance. The second thing I like the most is the customer support. The most recent CS interaction was to help set up our chat bot-- they spent two sessions despite us being a smaller account.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

We've been using Freshchat for years, and we love the product. However, I wish they would've been more persistent to upgrade us to the newer plan... we were on the legacy plan for 2 years before we realised which made us lose out on some helpful new features.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

Freshchat helps us solve all of our support necessisties. Aside from the whole recent Twitter debacle with 3rd party APIs, it's been a great omnichannel communincation platform.

What do you like best about Freshchat?

Freshchat is the easiest platform to interact with customers' queries and concerns on a real-time basis, solving customers' doubts about the services we offer.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

Sometimes the loading time of Freshchat will be a bit longer due to which it gets delayed to respond to the customers' queries or concerns. Also, the chat assignment will be a bit delayed if the intelliassign will be on.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

Using Freshchat we are able to handle the customer's concerns on a real-time basis and respond to them with the issue they are facing during the trip where we are providing drivers.
