"Ease of Use"
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

A very simple and easy-to-use Ticketing Tool. Being an administrator and an agent the tool is very simple to understand and configure, especially the automation of tickets.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

The software doesn't have any negative points except that the Knowledge-Based Section can be improved and if there would have been a option to customize the dashboard as the agent requirement.

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

The Freshdesk portal is used by the Developers. They raise tickets based on their requirements and needs. They raise it even when they are blocked or having issues on performing their daily activities. As the Freshdesk is used by the IT Department, the developers are restricted to few use.

"I love Freshdesk, just works"
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

It's a super easy tool to implement and deploy. It connects well with our internal tools like Atlassian.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

I really dislike the chat function, this could be so much better. I would love to have really strong integration with Intercom which is really innovating.

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

It helps us organize the inflow of customer and prospect requests. It saves us time in building targeted response plans and allows us to organize defects.

"Excellent features at a competitive price."
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

We're a busy digital agency, and FreshDesk allows us to manage all our client support questions and issues in a single place. We can discuss internally and track tickets to ensure we're providing timely, accurate support for our clients.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

I've been using FreshDesk for 5+ years and have no complaints or issues at all.

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

We used to answer all client questions via our regular email inboxes. This was obviously not scalable, and also not trackable in terms of response times, status, etc. FreshDesk is our collaborative inbox where we manage all our support tickets, and it's changed how we operate as an agency.

"Ótima ferramenta de atendimento!"
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

Freshdesk nos ajudou a organizar os atendimentos de clientes de forma que pudessemos manter controle sobre os processos a serem realizados, também permitiu aos nossos clientes ter controle sobre suas solicitações.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

A única coisa que temos problemas é a maneira como as threads e trocas de emails ficam estruturadas, não existe uma continuidade então as conversas ficam confusas.

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

Freshdesk resolve nossa organização e ajuda a priorizar as tarefas a serem executadas para cada cliente, como temos uma alta demanda, conseguimos organizar os atendimentos por clientes e ter uma visão clara dos processos a serem realizados.

"Best help desk for the price by far"
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

The amount of features this help desk solution offers is outstanding, and all of its free integrations. The pricing is absurdly low as well. For any Small to medium business, this will perfectly work for a helpdesk solution.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

The only downside I can even think of is that the UI for both user- and agent-facing sides is not very customizable.

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

We needed a basic helpdesk ticketing system to keep track of requests to the IT department in our medium-sized company with an IT team of two employees.

"It is intuitive and easy to use for anyone."
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

One of my favorite things is being able to mark my time, both in real time and to edit it.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

Los reportes de tiempo no se visualizan de manera correcta.

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

They are a system company, so freshdesk is used by the support desk, tickets are created for every incident or help that customers need. It helps us to have control over user time, task status and ticket creation time.

What I like most is the visibility of the customer journey and ticket history. Track how often the customer has been engaged and the service history of service incurred.

So far, need to improve the dashboard facing. Recommended to have it visible to all internal users regardless of access status especially on the floating tickets and number of open.

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

visibility on the issues and concerns that helps improve the customer service of aftermarket. Also, this Freshdesk help address the concerns of BP on the part material code needed as it is already included on the system features.
