User Testimonials
FreshchatPiper the AI SDR by Qualified
Likelihood to Recommend
Freshworks Inc
It is best suited for having 24-hour support, where customers can interact easily, even using their phones, to raise concerns or inquire about information. This makes it easier than going through the documents portal as a source of knowledge or sending emails for worries. However, it can be less appropriate for scenarios when you need more formal communication, like emails, and when proper documentation is necessary.

Piper the AI SDR is perfect for a global marketing team who wants to have greater control over conversations that are happening on the website. She does an excellent job of qualifying leads and getting meetings booked. In addition she does an excellent job routing people to support and away from sales if that is not an area they are interested. There aren't many areas we have found Piper to be not appropriate. As we continue to hone in and improve her capabilities.

Pros
Freshworks Inc
  • Real time customer support. During busy times all our available agents can jump on and handle large volume of customer interactions.
  • Automations and canned response features. With automation we can greet our customers the moment a chat gets assigned to an agent letting customers know they are being attended to similarly canned response helps us use templates for generic and commonly asked questions.
  • Dashboards and analytics. Freshchat's ability to build customized dashboards and analyze performance in a granular level helps us monitor workload and manage performance effectively.

Cons
Freshworks Inc
  • Freshchat is one of the best platforms, but still there are certain areas that require further improvement in order for the platform to become flawless.
  • I feel that the automated system in Freshchat is comparatively slow and due to this, it does not respond well according to all the requirements.
  • There are certain features in Freshchat which are not available for everyone and they can only be accessed by those who are paying the highest pricing tier.

  • Piper the AI SDR can get tripped up when someone asks a question we weren't prepared for. Example Does the webinar cost money? Of course not but we didn't specifically put anywhere that it doesn't, and she can get confused
  • Piper the AI SDR can sometimes get overzealous and try do things she isn't able to like help someone download an ebook
  • There are some trigger limitations for email but we are aware it is on the features roadmap

Usability
Freshworks Inc
I give it an 8 due to its usability. Yes, I had a few issues to begin with and needed some assistance from Freshchat agents, but considering this is something that is completely new to me, to set up what feels like a professional chat handling system complete with autobot within a day is really saying something I feel.

The Qualified tool itself if superb. It comes with so many features, not just the AI SDR - Sani, in our case, but additional features and benefits which I've started to take full advantage of. It's allowed us to drive engagement across the website within just days, and has already begun to see leads converted to open, and in some cases, won opportunities in under two weeks. Our AI SDR - Sani, has opened so many doors for the business. We've learned so much from our customers, website structure and content that resonates with prospects.

The experience we had in past for lets say 4-5 months with the support team and our TAM was really helpful. The changes in the bot flow has helped our bot to ensure we connect with customer easily.

We chose Qualified over their competitors because of our interactions with their team and the product. Their team made it feel like this was a partnership and that we weren't just some other customer. Implementation was fast and the tool is very user-friendly.
