Find out what your peers are saying about Qualtrics, ServiceNow, Salesforce and others in Customer Experience Management."I like that it's very user-friendly. The way they designed this application, any layperson can just do some drag and drop actions and use it. It's not that difficult. It's also easy to implement. The most important thing is, you don't need to go to this application to create a ticket. You just send out an email, and the ticket is created automatically. I have never seen a feature like this before."
"Freshdesk has allowed us to measure and track the response and resolution time of tickets which has been reduced from seven to eight hours down to 30 minutes to one hour."
"The most valuable features of Freshdesk are the automation of tickets to assign them to different agents, and the managing of documents is easy."
"It's free of charge for us. For our scale of business, it's very important. We don't have a lot of tickets."
"Its simplicity is most valuable. It is easy and simple, and it requires negligible training effort. I don't spend all my time goofing around trying to find stuff in the ticketing system."
"We have made use of the training academy and the technical support team from Freshdesk. Both have been very good resources."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is the way that it connects to various folders especially because we use it as a CRM tool. We can connect it with our phones and our chat, and also with the API and have it as an email service. Freshdesk just makes our life easier."
"Their knowledge base is phenomenal. The way that it learns from our users is awesome, and responses are really awesome as well. It does a pretty good job of picking up what's needed. The knowledge bases are great."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM has good integration with the Microsoft Stack of solutions. However, the Salesforce ecosystem is stronger."
"The solution is scalable."
"Integration with other Microsoft tools is a good feature of Microsoft Dynamics CRM."
"The solution's return on investment is worth it."
"This is a scalable solution."
"Technical support is completely good."
"Right now we're using the financial features, and we haven't tried the inventory. It's useful more on the financial side."
"The most valuable feature is that it's easy to use and can work with any Microsoft solution without problems."
"Sometimes our requirements are not matched with Freshdesk's free version as most of the advanced features are not available to us."
"I would like on-the-go translation,"
"Technical support is not the best. It could be much, much better and offer better support to users."
"I would like to be able to change the subject in emails for ourselves. If we could have the option to do that, it would improve our speed and the overall cleanliness of the CRM."
"Asset management and branding are two areas in the solution that have scope for improvement."
"There aren't any features that we want to enhance, but we need to mature in our usage of some of them. I can't say any feature is missing or needs improvement, but a tool's built-in features need to evolve customer feedback. We have a dialogue set up for that kind of feedback."
"I would like to see improvements in the account management aspect, having a customer portal for better visibility into my subscription, invoices, and trouble tickets."
"It would be helpful to pull reports or schedule them based on agents, users, ticket numbers, or responses."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM can improve by adding more artificial intelligence. Additionally, they should add more modules, such as account-based management, that are available on other platforms such as salesforce.com."
"Dynamic's management could be improved. The tech management should have better technical capabilities."
"The solution could have better dashboards and the Microsoft operating system could be more intuitive."
"I have contacted support. They are able to help but not in the right amount of time. I have had a horrible experience."
"In terms of the performance, when it comes to loading a large volume of data, it's slow at times, so the system could be optimized."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is operational enough, in terms of frequency, but an area for improvement would be its dashboard. Currently, it's widget-like, so hopefully, it could be improved, particularly to allow you to create a custom dashboard using a query. A custom dashboard would make the solution better and is an additional feature I'd like to see in the next release of Microsoft Dynamics CRM because right now, it only has a default dashboard, but maybe my account has limited access, so I can only see the default version of the dashboard."
"I am happy with it. If anything, its interface could be improved."
"The manufacturing module could be improved. I would like to see customization in the next release."
