What do you like best about Helpmonks?

The reminder functionality, and the support from Helpmonks team. Plus the per inbox pricing!

Nice to connect with slack, to have multiple inboxes in one account and see organisation history. SLA feature is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Helpmonks?

Doesn't work great on mobile unfortunately, even as a PWA (The text editing is very buggy).

The assignment doesn't generate emails to the assignee.

The 'working in the background' aspect is sometimes a touch odd. But is fairly good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Helpmonks:

Review your workflows Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Reasonable cost support inbox that is easy to collaborate on. The collission detection is really good and the quick direct links to tickets are handy. It means the team can collaborate easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Nitai Aventaggiato of Helpmonks

Hi Emrys,

Thank you for your review.

Regarding the PWA, on what platform are you on? I have iOS, iPadOS, and Android here, and on all of them, the text editing works. Eager to hear what is not working for you.

Assigning an email notifies the assignee. If that user has email notification turned on, he will receive an email about it too, i.e. status update.

Please let me know if there is anything else we can do to help?!?

What do you like best about Helpmonks?

I like having the dashboard all on one screen so that you know if you need to go into that certain inbox to check emails. I like that owners can assign noted to me and I will see them easily. Draft typed messages are saved automatically - I find this super useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Helpmonks?

I do not like the slowness of moving from one inbox to the other. There are days that performance is quick and days where everything lags behind the click of the mouse. Sometimes when you go to send an email - the email will not go right away - you have to exit out of the screen and go back into the email and try to send it again. I have been having issues with my reply emails to clients going to their junk mail /spam mail box - even when I am responding to an email they had sent me sucessfully that day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Helpmonks:

Works Well for multiple users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

the ability to look at all email boxes in one screen shot saves time - you know which mailboxes you need to address and those you can leave alone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Nitai Aventaggiato of Helpmonks

Thank you for your review.

I'm concerned about the performance issues you brought up here. We've invested into several networks and different locations in recent months to serve Helpmonks as fast as possible to you. Email delivery should not be an issue if you also have SPF and DKIM configured.

Please contact us (or me directly) to look into this. We'll be happy to help.

What do you like best about Helpmonks?

I like how Helpmonks allows for multiple email addresses to come into one inbox. This makes it easy for our team to work out of one inbox. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Helpmonks?

I wish that you did not always have to refresh the page when someone has moved something into their inbox. Sometimes it will update automatically and sometimes it will not which can cause people to work over each other. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Helpmonks:

I would recommend Helpmonks. It has been very helpful for our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are able to work as a team to work through company emails. This ensures that nothing is missed or falls through the cracks. This is especially helpful when everyone has different off days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Nitai Aventaggiato of Helpmonks

Thank you for your review.

You should not have to refresh the page, as this should work. We've seen some issues with it lately with certain browsers (it looks like you were affected by it), and it got resolved in the last few days.

Please check out the public Helpmonks RoadMap where we publish everything (https://trello.com/b/y6QD1aEN)

Please do contact us if the issue persists, so that we can get that resolved for you.

What do you like best about Helpmonks?

Love that it is one price for one inbox.

Easy for all our staff to review customer contact in one location.

Easy to track conversations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Helpmonks?

Just wish additional email addresses (that for example only 2 people need to access) was cheaper.

And although you can access it from a PC and mobile phone - you have to read the instructions to do so. Having an app would be a lot easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

No real problems. Just took a while to learn how to use all the features.

And lack of app means our staff don't use it as effectively as they could. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Nitai Aventaggiato of Helpmonks

Thank you for your review and the comments on the "app". What we have is a PWS (Progressive Web App). Depending on your mobile device, iOS or Android, you will be prompted to "add to home screen" when you go to your Helpmonks account. Once added, it acts just like a native app (very well so on Android with built-in notifications). Unfortunately, Apple does not support notifications yet. Though, I use the PWA on my Android phone and iPad all the time. Please let us know if there are any issues with it so we can improve it. Thank you.

What do you like best about Helpmonks?

- non c'è un limite al numero degli utilizzatori della casella condivisa;

- è possibile mantenere le conversazioni in merito alle e-mail separate dalla risposta data al cliente

-consenti di gestire i permessi di accesso alla casella (si evita di fornire password della casella di posta a collaboratori esterni)

- per i collaboratori è semplice da usare

- è possibile avere sullo stesso pannello di accesso il controllo di multiple caselle inbox condivise (info@zzz.com + sales@yyyy.org + etc.)

- assistenza clienti veloce e presente Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Helpmonks?

è necessario lavorare al di fuori della propria inbox originale, ad es. gsuite, e nella versione base non c'è la sincronizzazione della posta in uscita. Questo vuol dire che le risposte date ai clienti scritte su Helpmonks saranno solo su Helpmonks e NON sulla mia Gmail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use Helpmonks for our customer support mailbox. Now everybody sees all incoming request, we can assing them to the right person for andling it and everyone can concurr in writing replies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Nitai Aventaggiato of Helpmonks

Thank you for your review.

True, we do not provide a native iOS app, what we provide is a PWA (Progressive Web App). It should prompt you to install when you visit your Helpmonks account with Safari. If not, select "save to home screen". Then Helpmonks will act like a native app, minus the notifications (which doesn't work yet on iOS and iPadOS).

I'll take your comment about the company into consideration. That shouldn't be too difficult to show.

Emails are assigned to one team member. There are two options here: 1) you can create a Workflow and select several team members to assign a message to and then it will round-robin between them or 2) upgrade to the "FURTHER" plan and leverage the "Groups" and then simply assign an email to a group.

Hope this helps. Let me know if there is anything else we can do to help.
