"Reliable platform, excellent customer service."
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

The platform is user-friendly, super reliable, intuitive and easy to manage with non-technical resources. Anytime we've encountered any issues (always minor), the Freshdesk team has always been quick to assist. I work with many vendors, and they are hands down the most responsive and always so pleasant.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

The reporting features could have more customization features. For example, when viewing agent reports, the report tells you how many tickets an agent has responded to but doesn't have a group total. We aren't able to export email threads. We aren't able to link more than one chat account to Freshdesk.

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

We're able to manage multiple accounts under one platform and have the ability to silo our many unique accounts when necessary. This is a particular need for our business that other players in the industry have been unable to solve, such as Kustomer.

"Awesome Customer Support Tool."
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

I work with support team. Tickets generation becomes very crucial when tracking client history and agent performance. The toll is very easy to use and explore. Even for new learners. Integrations are also very good.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

I didn't find any major flaw in the tool. However, sometimes, finding some minimal and hidden settings become very difficult. Navigation takes time. Also, i found the cost to be on the higher side when compared to other support tools.

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

Ticket generation, tracking agent performance, ticket distribution amongst teams followed by an escalationb matrix. These are things which have been solved by FD. Moreover, integration with exotel has ensured that no client complaint is missed by the team.
