Freshdesk helps us track issues efficiently

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Freshdesk from other similar products?

Since we have a distributed team and a large client base, we rely on Freshdesk to efficiently monitor any problems that arise. Whenever a client contacts us, we log their inquiry into a ticketing system so that we may monitor its status and notify them when it has been resolved or provide more troubleshooting instructions, if necessary.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

If your business or group needs a ticketing or communication tracking system, Freshdesk is a great option. One of the numerous available options is sure to be ideal for your needs. There are other methods that may be better suitable if you don't want ticketing or need to handle a different type of communication (say, just for sales).

What do you dislike most about this product?

Ticket allocation might be cumbersome if your group has a complex organizational structure. The app has several formatting issues with emails, and the update badges may be annoying.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Freshdesk's UI is consistently well-designed and makes efficient use of available real estate across all supported platforms. The mobile app is not simply a desktop version of the desktop experience, and vice versa. Space is utilised well, with minimal letterboxing or wasted area on big desktop screens. It's simple to pick up and use right away.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
  • Effective Service

Freshdesk is our chosen help desk software

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Freshdesk from other similar products?

Support tickets from both business and consumer clients are managed using Freshdesk. We haven't looked at Freshdesk since our company exclusively uses email to communicate with customers; we don't offer chat or phone assistance. Freshdesk provides exactly what we need at a price that fits our budget.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The interface is simple and straightforward, allowing us to save time and money on assistance. The onboarding process is streamlined because to the tool's user-friendliness and the fact that it is the least complex of the tools we employ. Since it keeps track of all of our interactions with customers, it's also the one we utilize most frequently.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Reporting - We have to spend time manually hacking other reports because the reporting sometimes lacks certain essential capabilities or output.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If not for a few minor issues with reporting, Freshdesk would be deserving of a perfect score of 10 out of 10. Freshdesk is the most often used product in our stack because our team loves using it and because of its user-friendly interface, which helps us to move swiftly from one engagement to the next.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
  • Trustworthy

I highly recommend the program.

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Freshdesk from other similar products?

Overall simplicity of use, good design, and overall value for money. Much more worth it. in all these aspects the program is much better than others.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I wanted to connect Freshdesk to a few of our existing applications. Well-documented and comprehensive APIs are provided. Everything went according to plan! Freshdesk's automation engine is a breeze to use and packs a significant punch. Freshdesk and Zendesk are the only two competitors I've used in the past, and I was pleased with the similarity between the two.

What do you dislike most about this product?

They've been so helpful that it's difficult to pin down exactly what they have done. Most of my frustrations have been related to the setting of the application. To be clear, it's not that it's difficult to setup, but rather that I'm not sure how to put things up strategically. I'd want to be able to use more than one knowledgebase without having to pay much more. There are ways to get around this, though.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

This is our sophisticated tool for analyzing problems and providing assistance to customers. During the time that we have utilized it, we have found that it has been useful by enabling us to solve issues for our customers, assisting us in management, and assisting them with the integration of social networks. FreshDesk also has a support that cares magnificently and with style on every request, and this advantage places it above other platforms for troubleshooting since it puts FreshDesk ahead of the competition.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Unique Features
  • Efficient Service
