Freshdesk helps us track issues efficiently
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Freshdesk from other similar products?
Since we have a distributed team and a large client base, we rely on Freshdesk to efficiently monitor any problems that arise. Whenever a client contacts us, we log their inquiry into a ticketing system so that we may monitor its status and notify them when it has been resolved or provide more troubleshooting instructions, if necessary.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
If your business or group needs a ticketing or communication tracking system, Freshdesk is a great option. One of the numerous available options is sure to be ideal for your needs. There are other methods that may be better suitable if you don't want ticketing or need to handle a different type of communication (say, just for sales).
What do you dislike most about this product?
Ticket allocation might be cumbersome if your group has a complex organizational structure. The app has several formatting issues with emails, and the update badges may be annoying.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Freshdesk's UI is consistently well-designed and makes efficient use of available real estate across all supported platforms. The mobile app is not simply a desktop version of the desktop experience, and vice versa. Space is utilised well, with minimal letterboxing or wasted area on big desktop screens. It's simple to pick up and use right away.
Pros
- Reliable
- Performance Enhancing
- Enables Productivity
- Effective Service
