What do you like best about Freshdesk?

It helps us manage a large number of emails coming into the organisation quite easily.

Implementation was easy, but some of the training was not at the right level.

Customer support has been quite variable, sometimes people respond and get the problem solved very quickly, and other times it has included multiple people and taken more time than I expected.

I am using the product somewhere between monthly and weekly depending on what the team needs but it is used by the team daily.

There are a large number of features that we do use but I am not sure we are using the full potential of the product.

We have tried to integrate this with some of our processes and it has not been easy as the API documentation is not always clear enough and we need to connect some systems only via APIs that are not quite compatible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

Freshdesk is big.

We have had to stop our customers sending emails to multiple FreshDesk mailboxes as they would create multiple dupliate tickets assigned to different teams. We have not found simple solutions for this. Another group of users want no acknowledgements and while we have not implemented this yet it will be more work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Freshdesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

It ensures we have oversight of the emails coming in to the organisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
