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

Great for companies that sell on marketplaces and want to merge all of their communications. It saves our customer service agents tons of time, and it also connects easily with ChannelAdvisor. It would not be appropriate for a company that does not sell on marketplaces.

Cons
4me.com
  • 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

  • I wish the filters displayed closer to the top of the inbox vs the bottom
  • The new and to-do tabs can be confusing at first
  • Agents must take ownership once in the message; it is not auto-assigned when you click into a message, so there is room for duplication.

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

They were not even close to offering what xSellco has and the ease of using the platform. eDesk by xSellco is a great price point, is very easy to use, and it also integrates with ChannelAdvisor and Big Commerce, which was a determining factor for us. It also is an Amazon partner and ensures that they are adhering to all of the strict communication rules Amazon has.
