Freshdesk Omni vs. eDesk

For a typical technical support help desk use case Freshdesk Omni is great! It has the advanced features of automating responses and canned answers where appropriate. The AI functionality seems good but not something we are leveraging at this point given the volume of tickets.

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.

• When an agent receives a call via Dialpad or Amazon Connect, Freshdesk Omni automatically displays relevant customer details, previous interactions, and ticket history in a single view.
• Every call (answered, missed, or voicemail) is automatically logged into Freshdesk as a ticket, including details like call duration, customer number, and agent notes.
• Agents can initiate outbound calls directly from Freshdesk using click-to-call functionality, reducing manual dialing errors and saving time.

• 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.

1) Price is also a point to decide, other Service Providers were providing similar features but the prices were slightly on a higher side. 2) Coming to feature comparison, JIRA offers whole lot of other features but currently we did not require them and Zoho had few less features comparing to Freshworks

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.
