The responsiveness and sheer number of features are really where they shine above the rest. Also the fact that the support team really cares about the product and the users using everything they've paid for. While other software such as TOPdesk has a lot of the same features …

Chose Freshservice
Freshservice and 4me are, in my eyes, both modern and capable ITSM tools, although they may cater to different audiences. I would say 4me is more focused on multi-tenant setups and larger enterprises, but I think Freshservice prioritizing simplicity and speed makes our use case …

Great visibility of asset assignment to user but not so good if you track also assignment of user rights through CI for users. It would be nice if you can group types of assets/configuration items to user not to show everything mixed up. There is great options to adopt product to your particular needs, there are options for adding some special fields in process automation to help to have tailored process from enduser fill in forms to complex workflow which utilises various specialists

We've been operating in Freshservice for the past 3 years and frankly I wouldn't replace it with anything else now. Freshservice has done a great job at keeping our support teams organized and accountable for the work that they receive from the business. We have even branched its use out into other non-IT supporting groups in the business to allow them to bring work that was previously managed in shared mailboxes into the platform to improve on how work is assigned and tracked with individuals.

It is easy to do first deployment in wrong direction - maybe there should be better guidance how to setup services/service instances to properly work at the end.
Reporting is based on predefined templates - to get most of them you have to properly implement services in IT - it is not an easy process
Integration with O365 for out of office would be helpfull

It would be nice to have a way to receive a weekly summary of the tickets you worked on. It doesn't have to be overly detailed, but it should show how many new tickets you got, what kind of tickets they were, and whether they were resolved.

We are pretty invested in Freshservice right now and have integrated it pretty heavily into our environment, so it would be hard to move away from it. For the most part, we are happy with Freshservice and the ease of use it gives us in managing tickets through the system. The only complaint we've had is customer service.

Tool has built-in automation module which helps to more precisely define user requests or workflow condition. This from one hand gives end-user easy and understandable forms to fill in, and from other had it ensure all needed information has been fulfilled for further steps in workflow. Once you follow service principle which is base for that tool it will help you to track in detail your business and your partners

The UI design of Freshservice is simple and intuitive. You don't have to be a technical expert to navigate your way into the different pages/modules available. There are no buttons that are hidden in plain sight. Even our HR team required little to no help when they started using Freshservice.
In our 3 years of using Freshservice, we've experienced several outages in the first 2 years. There were times where it only took minutes or hours but there are also times where it took a few days. Each time, Freshservice remained transparent and constantly communicated their progress. We haven't had one in the past year which indicates Freshservice have improved their servers.
Pages load quickly but internet connectivity can also play a big role. Integrations doesn't affect the performance but internet connectivity may be a big factor. As a company with most employees working from home, different network providers from different areas/countries can have different experiences. Search load time needs improvement.
Excellent response whenever it matters to us. The email is sufficient; the turnaround time is very fast, and most importantly, they provide product information before onboarding, and their resource center includes features, FAQs, and common issues, so we can review them and implement them ourselves.

Their documentation is pretty good, but only available in English. This makes it difficult for some of our users to understand. There are also some basic video courses available.

Creating the correct groups for the stakeholders and enabling the right notifications are one of the most important aspect of the implementation. Creating Change templates will also help in the long run and it's a good practice to create one, if applicable.
The responsiveness and sheer number of features are really where they shine above the rest. Also the fact that the support team really cares about the product and the users using everything they've paid for. While other software such as TOPdesk has a lot of the same features they are always missing something, the ticketing package isn't as complete as Freshdesk and the automation features/ onboarding for new employees is a great and easy to follow part of the solution.

Freshservice allows flexibility with contract terms and pricing model. Monthly and annual payments are allowed. The unit pricing needs a bit of improvement. It would be great if they offer unit pricing per capability instead of one pricing for all the capabilities. Small businesses have different use cases and not every agent needs all the modules available.
We were able to scale easily across multiple departments. As our company keeps growing, we have not needed to change anything in terms of scaling since we started using Freshservice. There were no changes to the admin and end-user experience from when we were a 1,000-employee company vs to our current head count of 2,000+.

As we are finance institution we are strictly regulated so this product helps us in many fields to satisfy regulatory requests through easy workflow management setup.
Product is easy to implement, easy to adopt so we use it in different segments of business (central purchase department, security office, IT department) for tracking and standardising various processes in each niche.

Alleviate our support team by providing knowledge directly to the end users.
Better response times from our IT support team, thanks to automation and dashboard use.
Better tracking of our assets by assigning them to users so we know which device was handed out to who. During off-boarding, we know which devices to ask back.
