We can work from this program with ticketing tools that help us to effectively connect and manage our customer inquiries and complaints. It serves as a data or time tracking system that we use to serve our customers. It has a great analytics platform where various reports are available to analyze the data quickly and present it in a meaningful way.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The look and feel of their web interface is very attractive, We have an advantage of options for customization of everything in conjunction with their mobile app which is very simple in addition to the browser version Even though we are on the free plan, we have had to contact support a few times and they have been absolutely responsive in a timely manner immediately.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Their search functionality could be more extensive because their filters on search terms are quite limited as sometimes the control panel doesn't load, it's just a gray screen. And the fact that you can't modify signatures based on the email address you reply to The tool doesn't know how to override the source address when there is another agent assigned.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

We strongly recommend Freshdesk, by companies with direct support needs, as for us it meets the standards, In our case we got their free trial to find out if their system had what it takes which corresponds to: customer satisfaction survey, ability to monitor tickets (Open, Solved, On Hold, etc.) and getting the ticket and reports easy to configure and share.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Unique Features
