Find out what your peers are saying about ServiceNow, Atlassian, BMC and others in Help Desk Software."It is quite easy to program custom apps and integrate them."
"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."
"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."
"The organization that is possible with other departments is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"Technical support is outstanding."
"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."
"It is very easy to make reports."
"The ticketing system is smooth, but since we use a free version, we do not have many facilities available."
"The solution is a highly mature product. Because of this, it can stand up to any other product on the market."
"The dashboards are useful but could be so much better. As a product manager, and data scientist, we couldn't use the dashboard for analytics and had to move the data in Power BI."
"While it's good for a small number of tickets, definitely in the future, we will require something more powerful."
"If Freshdesk had forms in it so that I could go to the portal and fill out a service request, that would improve it immensely and make it more valuable for enterprise customers, but that's not a current functionality. You can't have a certain catalog of any type. You can't be like, "Hey, I want to just go submit a ticket," and then type in. You can't prompt them to ask anything. It is just a blank form."
"The reporting, analysis modules and insights capabilities for this solution could be improved."
"Asset management and branding are two areas in the solution that have scope for improvement."
"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 to see improvements in the account management aspect, having a customer portal for better visibility into my subscription, invoices, and trouble tickets."
"Freshdesk could improve its capabilities. It's missing the article formatting, and the overall look and feel make it not easy to use. The administration instructions on how to manage the automation, capability, and integration with third parties, such as chat or bots, are very important in these types of solutions."
"The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements."
