"The file transfer feature allows IT to provide needed drivers and files without interfering with the employee's workflow."
"This is a very secure product."
"The most valuable feature of BeyondTrust Remote Support is the ability to control screens remotely."
"I personally like the ability to share files with other machines."
"I like Remote Support's ability to connect to a system without end-user interaction. A support engineer can log in to the system if a user is stuck and doesn't know where to go. This is helpful when conference room computers get locked down and the user can't access the guest OS."
"The remote reboot feature is particularly valuable for rebooting terminal servers that have power controls disabled."
"We like that it records the remote sessions. If a technician is logged into a user remotely to fix any problem, it records the decision."
"The UI is easy to use."
"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."
"We have made use of the training academy and the technical support team from Freshdesk. Both have been very good resources."
"The user experience on the platform itself is fantastic. The UI is clean and uncluttered, so it's easy to find any information about your customer or the issue at hand. You can find out the person responsible for that particular issue, what the problem is, who the stakeholders are, and how to resolve it. There are lots of tools that will help you do that as well."
"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 quite easy to program custom apps and integrate them."
"There is the option to create different roles for specific users. We make use of groups for each customer service team which has been very effective. We are able to apply different sets of rules for each group which determines how they interact with customers and escalate issues."
"The ticketing system is smooth, but since we use a free version, we do not have many facilities available."
"There are not enough product partners in Turkey, making it difficult for me to get assistance."
"Lacks remote support and privileged remote access in the one product."
"The Bomgar representative console could do with modernising. The Web rep console introduced is a marked improvement, but is currently not at feature parity with the thick client. This is being worked on."
"The solution currently is not stable and we gave a road map of our expectations two or three days ago."
"This product has a lot of features that we do not currently use, so there may be some things that cause bloat and confusion."
"It is pricey. It would be nice if it weren't so expensive because then you could afford more licenses and have more people involved, but I get it. They do have something that's unique compared to some of their competitors out on the market. It is a very robust and safe tool. If the price could come down, that'd be great."
"In the next release, I would like remote access to Chrome included."
"It needs better Linux support. We have had issues with Ubuntu specifically."
"I would like to see a little bit more color in the solution."
"Technical support is not the best. It could be much, much better and offer better support to users."
"We have many cases where a ticket comes in, and it ends up having multiple team members working on it. It would be really nice to be able to assign a single ticket to multiple people, rather than having to create the parent-child hierarchy that they have set up. It generates a proliferation of tickets that I really don't want to have. Having to jump from a parent to one child and then to another child makes it harder for me to be able to see the entire case from end to end. A simple example is our new hire process or our termination process. We have people who leave. We also have people who come on board. We have got multiple people participating and doing things related to the leaving or onboarding process. Currently, I have to go to different tickets to be able to see whether all tasks are really done or not. If I could assign lots of people to one ticket, it would be really nice."
"Sometimes our requirements are not matched with Freshdesk's free version as most of the advanced features are not available to us."
"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."
"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 on-the-go translation,"
"The reporting, analysis modules and insights capabilities for this solution could be improved."
