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

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

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.

"Great Ticketing System!"
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

It's a super user friendly website that is easy to navigate and train new users on. I love the ability to have a dashboard that keeps track of tickets per user, ratings on tickets, different ticket status, and you are able to utilize a 'round robin' feature to ensure that tickets are evenly distributed amongst a team.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

I haven't found any roadblocks or hiccups with the current system yet, all seems to be working well for our need for the site!

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

Organization and time management of tasks, keeping track of projects and deadlines within a team (and sub-team) role within our department, the ability to create internal notes on tickets without alerting the requester, the ability to automate specific tasks to make it easier on the internal user and the ticket requester as well.
