Freshservice Primary Use Case
We are in a broadcast environment, making around 40,000 hours of TV every year. Our primary use case is for responding to tickets where the end user receives telemetry. It's a little different from traditional IT help desks and is geared towards live TV production. Our support engineers work in shifts and this product is also a way of handing things over from one shift to the next in an efficient way with visibility. We are customers of Freshservice.

For the most part, we're doing some asset management with it. We've got about nine departments that are handling their ticketing requests through it through our service catalog. We use it for workflow building and integrations within as well.

Our use cases are dependent on our clients’ requirements. If our clients have to acknowledge and follow up on emails manually, we can create automated acknowledgments using the solution. We can have scripted answers if the customer asks a frequently asked question.
We can create responses on placeholders so that the agents can easily select them and send them to customers to ask for details. If the business has many channels to support, the tool helps connect all channels in one place. The agents don't have to move around in different tools. They can access all the tickets created from all the channels.

CIO at Grupo Kasto
We're primarily using the solution for incident management. We use it for ticketing for end-users. We are using also all the functionality around change management, release management, and this year we implement project management and software license management. We also make use of the analytics.
I was mainly using it for the functionality related to changes, such as tracking and reporting production changes going into our live systems. I also used it for APIs for the automatic generation of changes based on triggers from Jira.
In terms of deployment, I'm pretty sure it was SaaS, and in terms of version, it would've been a fairly recent version because they'd only been using it for about a year or so.
View full review »I implemented the solution for a client, and it's used in the typical service management processes, including incident, problem, and change management. It's also used for fleet and facilities management. It has a built-in project management functionality, but that isn't used at the moment. Generally speaking, the out-of-the-box modules are used, with customisation.

Senior Information Technology System Administrator at a insurance company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Our company uses the solution to provide service desk assistance to clients.
One use case is with a client in the insurance industry. Customers who have issues with their insurance send emails for assistance that are routed to us through the solution. We created five support group classifications to address particular insurance issues.
We currently use Azure servers only for connection and to authenticate Office 365 mailboxes. For now, we do not link the solution with Azure's products.

Business Systems Analyst at a transportation company with 5,001-10,000 employees
We use it for IT service management. We use it for HR service management. We also use it in an operations capacity in combination with some other tools.
We use a combination of Freshdesk, Freshservice, and Freshchat. We use the whole suite. We're the third largest customer of theirs.
We have the Enterprise plan, and we have its latest version. We are in beta testing for another upgrade that they're doing, but it is still in beta. So, it is not live yet. It is a cloud solution. Freshservice owns everything. We just use it as a cloud platform.

Rajkumar Reghu Varma
Infrastructure Architect -Application Dynamics at Kyndryl
At my previous organization, we had an alliance partnership with Freshservice. Part of that alliance involved me implementing Freshservice for North American and Europe clients. Freshservice is an ITSM product. The PLC would be done by the thresholds and as part of the alliance, and we would implement the Freshservice ITSM solution for the clients. It's completely based on the customer requirements, which modules need to be implemented. We will do the data collection, the requirement gathering, et cetera, and we will do the solution and implementation for the Freshservice to cater to the client's needs. As part of this, we'll do the infra, we'll do automation, orchestration, and everything as part of this integration with multiple sources. We'll do the portfolio management.

Senior Helpdesk at a non-profit with 51-200 employees
It is a solution for help desk ticketing, as well as for knowledge base and inventory. We also deploy a fresh service agent that actually goes and gets installed on all of our PCs and any of our computer clients within the organization. That provides Freshservice with inventory information so that we can go and track assets.
I am currently using the most recent version of it. It is cloud-based, so it automatically updates. It is a public cloud, though it is accessed through Okta SAML single sign-on. It is private in that aspect. I have a feeling that their services are on an Amazon Web Services server, but I could be wrong.

Consultant at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
We extended Freshservice for one of my customers to integrate their business workflow. If the customer needed a new mobile, VM, or something else, they traditionally use a portal, but we have changed that. We designed an extension to manage business demands. In the past year, we've been implementing customization for change management.
