Excellent software and support

What do you like best about the product?
Freshdesk is an excellent helpdesk application. The biggest positive of using this application is the Freshdesk support and customer management teams. They regularly follow up to check in - they also provide annual operational reviews where they look at the metrics and make suggestions on how to enhance our usage of their product. There are regular releases that fix bugs and add extra features. I like the fact that they provide a feedback mechanism on their "release notes". There is a lot of flexibility with automation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their new reports product has been in beta for over a year with no movement. They have the right idea on how to proceed; however, the interface needs significant work. I would like to have the ability to extend the usage of the product by creating new database tables and screens. Something similar to salesforce. I also don't want to pay extra for this or be limited by having them do the development work. Some reported feature requests have been open with no action for years - i.e. being able to reassign ticket source. You can see these on the community board. It would be good to get these customer requests handled and then start building out their product to eliminate the need to bolt on other products - i.e. being able to add on database tables and screens. More automation options would be good. Adding NPS as a built-in survey tool would be an excellent feature. Getting rid of their ticket archiving system is critical. I'm not too fond of the fact that after several months my tickets get archived and become harder to find and analyze - this is a big issue that I wish they would fix.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The widgets and the ability to integrate them into our other products to collect tickets are great features that give us a leg up on the competition. Their API is really good and has allowed us to built integrations with other products. They need a reporting API that doesn't have a rate limit.

A complete helpdesk system to provide customer support.

What do you like best about the product?
The platform mainly is straightforward to understand. Offers many of the essential tools for a helpdesk, such as a ticket system, satisfaction surveys, customer portal with KB and take automation.
Freshdesk was the first ticket system I had to use when building up our support department, so the usage of the system grew as the department was growing.

I do see that the system has many features, that we are not yet using. Fortulately they had recently given us a customer growth point of contact to better walk us through the system.
What do you dislike about the product?
We're mainly running into problems, where the existing system is hard to fit into some of our team's workflow.
Most of the solutions, we came us with are based on either using automation or API usage, which the system thankfully allows doing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're running a small tech support department. Freshdesk was chosen as our ticket system,
adding to the existing Skype channel, that the company had started with. The system had helped us to organise client's incoming queries and build a better internal processes.

What do you like best about the product?
I like the user interface that gave me so much flexibility to move over one thing to another thing
What do you dislike about the product?
To be honest, sometimes I can not log in to the Freshdesk system itself. It seems they had 2 layers of login or something.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm focusing on WordPress plugin support. So everyday I tackled ticket related to WordPress itself

Receptive, innovative and great value

What do you like best about the product?
Really do give you a lot for your money especially as compared to Zendesk and Salesforce. Included QA system, screen sharing and control in Live Chat and some very interesting uses of A.I. all included in the forest omnichannel plan. Always launching new features, some that could be standalone products, as cost free upgrades.
What do you dislike about the product?
Missing some core basics like select and edit app in ticket search.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Everything and usually with webhook enabled automations. System is like clay. Easy to mould.

Freshdesk: Your Support Tool

  • August 05, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's been 2 years since I have been using this software. And it has been one of the best supporting tools for me. The user interface and user experience are super friendly and easy. One can easily raise tickets, provide internal notes, customize the tag, and other features as per the needs. You can also add knowledge-based articles, shared documents, or related information. You can easily view the companies, contacts, and their related information. The automation feature of assigning the tickets to associated agents is also available. Additionally, you can also set the canned response. These are few things that I really like about freshdesk.
What do you dislike about the product?
However, reporting is a bit tedious and customization requires the involvement of Freshdesk teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Freshdesk, I have been able to sort out the customer's queries and issues. I am also able to look into similar issues that have arisen previously.
