What do you like best about FreshChat?

It's so much Flexible. Unlike most CRM platforms, you can jump straight into a consultation session (Google Meet and I think, Zoom) to avoid the back and forth on chat. The configurations and set up is also very smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FreshChat?

Nothing. We use it to drive customer retention and usage at Borderless HQ. I hate nothing about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

A streamlined platform for all things customer engagement. We’re able to drive customer satisfaction and offer support and open end consultations to end users with FreshChat. A one in all tool for customer relationship management across a company’s user touch points. It's amazing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to customize the chat, being able to provide some information about the agent to the customer as well typing indicators, being able to add attachments, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FreshChat?

Unable to customize the chat window for multi-organizations. Since we're managing multiple organizations, we are unable to customize each organization's chat window and it would be great feature to be added with future releases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Freshdesk is making it easier for our live-chat agents to talk with customers across the different organizations we manage, all into a single place, seamlessly and without any struggle. Plus the canned responses really help a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one thing that would be helpful would be a section off to the side where we can add important notes on the patients for quick refrences. That would be helpful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Freshchat will autoreslve some chats that need closed right away without us needing to look at it. That filters alot of the chats out and we can get to the others easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about FreshChat?

Its easy in use and it's clear for the agents when a customer reaches out. We are able to create specific chat bots that helps to guide our customers aswel to select the correct subject matter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FreshChat?

The fact that the automatisations are not easy to set up for the chat bot, it was a lot of trial and error which was felt by the customers. Because due to bot failing the chats were closed to early or not correctly which meant that our agents have to check if a ticket number was created for a closed chat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It helped us scale our support service as our previous tool was not providing us the solutions we needed to handle the current load we receive daily from our customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
