"Probably one of the best solutions"
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

Being able to integrate emails, live chats, phone calls, etc. all into a single platform that it's easy to use and navigate.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

I believe something i don't like about Freshdesk is the support for multi-organizations, which is there - but there's room for improvement.

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

Before using Freshdesk, our agents have been using several email clients to access all of our customer care emails, while now, they are only using Freshdesk, so it is a huge benefit for our company.

"Wonderful Tool"

I like the best Freshdesk is the interface and way it's designed to handle emails and resolve in a easier way. It's a must needed office tool to complete all the customer's queries under one platform :)

Nothing much because it's an amazing tool to all who would liked to handle the customer queries. You can add a feature to login through the mobile number that's all.

All my emails are under one platform and I can easily assign them to my fellow tem members and also monitor the ticktes. This will help me to reslove the queries on the and keep up the SLA.
