Freshdesk Reviews & Product Details

The seamless ability to handle all our Customer Support-related tickets and procedures. FreshDesk is a comprehensive way to manage our inquiries and interact with our customers. FreshDesk also offers excellent additional features such as automation for a much more streamlined organization of tickets.

The biggest downside to us as a company was the recent removal of integration with the Twitter/X platform. FreshDesk was a wonderful way to facilitate responses through this social media platform, so losing the ability to integrate with it is understandable due to Twitter/X's recent changes, but also a shame for us.

Communication with your customers is a never-ending challenge for any business. FreshDesk drastically improved our ability to do so as compared to our previous ticketing platform. The benefit of this is greatly heightened customer relationships and streamlined processes for all our agents.

The ticket submission portal is one of the cleanest and most helpful I have seen across the brands1 Particularly the clean layout gives a 'self service' to the requester by making features such as 'knowledge base' and other documentation readily available. We have had many support requests entirely avoided by having many help articles easily located the moment a user interacts with the UI. Icons and categories are well padded / spaced to avoid visual overload which detracts from users even considering self service.

Drill downs for exporting from the technican side can be a little clunky. 1 example; Date ranges would be much easier if inputing text date ranges was a feature and not being forced to click a calendar.

Easy to manage multiple teams within a service desk enviornment and quickly find tickets. This allows us to keep turn times low across multiple categories which sometimes can be tricky in other service desk platforms.

Their customer support is fantastic. I can always reach out to them and know I am going to get help within 24 hours. They are always willing to assist with any needs or questions that I have. The dashboard is extremely user friendly. We are always looking for other things outside of ticketing to use it for.

The only thing that is kind of hard to deal with is the properties section in the tickets. When we have one ticket type selected, we would only want that tickets properties to show up. But this is something that you have to request that they remove for you. I wish we could do it from our side.

We use FreshDesk as an internal ticketing system for our users. We didn't have anything for a ticketing system before, and we are not really a huge tech company. We didn't need something as complex as the other ticketing systems out there, and we also needed to stay within a certain price, and freshdesk checked all of the boxes for us.

Many of us can help our people out. It allows for collaboration and less email to deal with. We have found it has streamlined communication and allows for everyone on the team to help and see what has been said already to those we are helping.

The only downside we have had is when we get into a non ending reply cycle with autoresponders. We have had it happen a time or two. It is just due to autoresponders. But Freshdesk has helped us fix it and we appreciated the help.

We have over 300 people we manage. This allows for these people to send in help requests and our team to communicate. We can also assign tasks to one another.

Freshdesk is a great tailor made solution for helpdesk ticketing. If has got a basic architecture and doesn't need much of a training to get used to.

The pricing is quite high. This can be reviewed by the product team once

Freshdesk is solving our issues with complaint logging, auto assigning, tracking, auyo SLA and escalations.

Freshdesk and the Freshworks suite are powerful! Boasting many features to help you keep up to date with customer communication and empower your employees to do their best work, this software works for a smaller businesses with small teams but could easily scale to a large operation. As someone who is in this software for 8+hrs per day I find it easy and intuitive to use. As a small business we aren't using it to it's full capacity, but have plans to expand our email/social media support to chat and beyond with Freshdesk.

At the capacity to which I use Freshdesk I have yet to see any issues.

Freshdesk makes it very easy to manage emails and social media messages from customers.

Simplicity of ticketing system. Automations

Sometime we have to rely on 3rd paty apps t make some automations work. Example selected mandate option on ticket to close them.

Helps in having a single mode of communication for the entire team and allows to make automations taht help increase efficieny of the organization. With simple changes or template creations, I was able to acheive a reduction f 37% handle time for my teams.

The ticket system is very easy and user friendly. I use it on a daily basis and have never had any issues.

I can not think of anything that I dislike about it.

Keeping track of work items and priorities as well as solutions to our issues. It is any place to take care of everything.

It is very easy to use on my laptop, my mobile android and iPhone. It used daily has so many features, scenarios to canned responses. Creating and using canned responses makes my team work more efficiently. Daily reports to my inbox showing what I need from agent to SLA.

Not been able to set up schedule send time on emails like in outlook.

Freshdesk tickets are automatically assigned to agents based on skill, this is beneficial as I do not need to do it manually.

It is very easy to navigate and easy to use.

Sometimes the pages freeze up and you can't go back to where you were previously

I get to access the customers profile by clicking a link on freshdesk instead of having to look them up on a different website, can edit their information easily and updated their personal details as well as get assigned the ticket you were working when the cx responds back.
