What do you like best about Helpzilla?

Helpzilla can serve multiple websites and supports multiple operators with audio and visual alerts. It is very intuitive and easy to learn. Very similar to PHPLive! and PHPLiveChat if you are familiar with those platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Helpzilla?

Reaction time is seriously slow...It feels like it is crawling in the fast paced customer service industry. Needs to get up to speed! It could use a facelift...unfortunately, books are judged by their covers. If it was re-vamped and updated a bit it could be more attractive for new users to try out & implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Helpzilla:

worth a try if you currently use another software- free! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Helpzilla?

I'm a user. That means I use stuff. And when stuff I use doesn't work, I raise my hand and ask for help. That's what makes helpzilla so useful to me: all you do is raise your hand and the system crates a log for each case that's easy to understand and follow. We use helpzilla at the company I work at right now, and all it takes for me to open up a new case is send an email to an inbox we created for that very own purpose: receive requests. The system automatically creates a request and assigns it to a specific queue where an operator then reassigns it to the proper support guy. I just love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Helpzilla?

The interface can really get better. It's kind of "because it's open source we really haven't tried to make it look cooler" Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Helpzilla:

Try it, it's free! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Helpzilla?

The tool itself is amazing, it integrates well into any environment and works great in tandem with bugzilla. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Helpzilla?

The clunky interface cane make it hard to find what you want/need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Helpzilla:

Helpzilla is an opensource issue tracker, and it will integrate well into your environment. I have always used it tied to bugzilla, as it compliments it very well, and makes for an easier way to track bugs and related issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
