How to read the Emotional Footprint
The Net Emotional Footprint measures high-level user sentiment towards particular product offerings. It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
While purchasing decisions shouldn't be based on emotion, it's valuable to know what kind of emotional response the vendor you're considering elicits from their users.

What differentiates Freshdesk from other similar products?
With Freshdesk, we can constantly contact customers through email, social media, phone, or chat to address any issues or questions they may have regarding our services or campaigns. That way, we can get back to them without delay on their demands.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
One major aspect is the streamlined communication it provides. Before, we had to rely on email, which had its drawbacks like being either not read at the right time or not sent at all, among other issues that made communication less efficient than it is now. This tool lets us stay in touch with clients productively and efficiently.
What do you dislike most about this product?
This tool seems complicated when you first start using it, which delays the process of training staff to use it in their work activities.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Communication is critical in any organization, so Freshdesk is perfect for all businesses. The platform allows you to stay in touch with customers and employees alike. Consequently, it could be a part of any business's operations, whether for internal communications or external interactions with clients and vendors.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy
- Unique Features

Freshdesk is an excellent help desk system
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Freshdesk from other similar products?
It helps us stay connected and reply on time. Leadership-level interaction and feedback to the group. Multiple languages and diverse agent groups are supported by our robust automation.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The website is really simple to use and learn for new users. I like that there's a dashboard that shows how many tickets each user has, how those tickets are rated, what their current status is, and how a 'round robin' tool can be used to distribute tickets fairly throughout a team.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Currently, they only have rudimentary AI features. In addition, they can only use the FreshDesk FAQ. It would be nice if this were to alter in the near future.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
We're using Freshdesk to keep track of customer support tickets and correspondence. By eliminating the need for repeat keystrokes when responding to customer inquiries, we can save time on assistance.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Reliable
- Saves Time
- Generous Negotitation
