    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.

    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.

    • The beginner's user-friendly UI can help learners learn easily, and it feels a bit complex.
    • Implementation of AI bot on common tasks.
    • There are no offline functionality that users can use remotely.
    • As the scalability of the products grows, they become more expensive.

    The cost of SAP as an ERP is quite high and the switching costs associated with ERP systems are even higher. That being said moving from one ERP to another only happens once in a great while for large organizations. Those switching costs include retraining, IT hardware requirements, outside consultants and more

    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.

    SAP requires
    a lot of internal and external resources to complete its successful
    implementation. The cloud version requires a deeper understanding of the
    different capabilities of the local systems (hardware) and the connection
    towards your local IT team. We found several problems on our systems that we
    couldn't foresee before the implementation and roll out.
