Freshdesk vs. Simplify360

We have been using Freshwork CRM for quite some time now, and the best part of using it is its reliability. Easy to use and understand, the vast options in Freshdesk to use automation and API make it an allrounder in all departments, whether it's a Chat platform or their Ticketing platform. Their Support team is available 24 x 7, and the executives are well equipped to help you resolve any concern that arises while using the software. They even have quarterly/half-yearly catchups with their clients to understand the business goals and align themselves accordingly.

To talk directly to the Simplify 360 management and take a call post that. One of the key aspects of investing in any enterprise software is how easy the implementation is and how much support that a company can get in the early implementation process. We have had a quick ramp up learning the tool and had constant interactions with the team at Simplify to better understand and manage issues or get questions answered

• Follow up on all conversations that enter and are easy to use by the employee and save responses ready for use.
• Find out the average rate of the number of conversations that occur in the company and conduct the analysis.
• There is a feature it allows one to take a permit in the name of the employee who responds to the conversation and to know the problem faced by the customer and the solution.

• BeFirst publishes to multiple social channels for clients. The publishing module makes publishing very easy and effective.
• Workflow allows our team to handle customer service requests and brand management issues very quickly to maintain a company's reputation.
• The ease of set up in the listening module, makes brand reputation very effective.
• The platform does offer platform provide sentiment analysis, and it works great. The team has found that is very easy to keep up conversations and answer customer for clients or forward the infomation to said client.

• Data Security.
• SLA Policies where it is not customer / contract driven but agents / groups driven.
• Audit Trail is not available in Pro version makes the tool adoption difficult from compliance perspective.
• Chat Bot and Fresh Chat Services has greater potential to explode, but the pricing model tagged to chat bot sessions .are illogical as it limits the ability to use the fresh chat feature
• Agent Logon Screen use earlier version of Captcha as it is annoying for the agents to login. Very frustrating experience.

• I will like to see some improvement in the intuitiveness of the system. There are some great features hidden behind the curtains.

We are extremely happy with Freshdesk and can foresee using it for the next year. We might only consider using a different platform if our average daily ticket volume reaches four digits and its AI isn’t enough to handle our needs by then. While we haven’t tested this yet, we have read reviews that it’s AI capabilities are lacking

We have a great relationship with the Simplify team and anyone in our team is able to reach out to them and get answers to questions is a wonderful benefit of working with them. Also we have collaborated with the team to enhance the product, which again is a very welcome gesture from a company that sells a product that helps enterprises listen in to people and support them.

I gave it a rating of 9 out of 10 because they delivered on everything we asked them to do. Easy to setup, easy to deploy to end users, easy to customize, easy to enter tickets and so much more. Our experience with their support is top notch! After opening a ticket for support they call use back within 10 minutes every time!

I have encountered a lot of errors in the Freshdesk, however, they tend to resolve it on priority or at least they will share the timeline by when this can be resolved. Most of the time the issue has been from the other partner's end. They take time to resolve their vendor issues and they don't have any timelines in case of developed app errors.

The reports take a lot of time to download if the time period is large. Also, the tickets take their sweet time to open and load. It is not fast as Zendesk. Only 30 tickets are visible in a single go and there isn't any option to select all. If we need to change the pages and dashboards it takes a lot of time to open.

The main thing about Freshdesk user service is that once a request has been made for information about a feature of the platform, the support team responds to tickets quickly, within a day of writing and submitting them, with information that is concise enough so that there is no need to ask for help on the same topic again.

In-person training is provided to all the agents and it is very easy to learn the basics of the Freshdesk interface. Solving tickets via dashboards, replying to the guest queries in bulk via Freshdesk. The training which is a bit hard is creating the logic according to the ticket flow and intergeration.

This tool is no doubt easy to learn but in-person training is a lot better than online training. It takes time to grasp things in the online training, however, in pandemic we have done all the training online. Apart from a bit more time we haven't faced any issues with online training.

Taking advantage of the Freshdesk implementation package made an incredible difference in how we understood and how we implemented the product - turning Freshdesk from a shared inbox to an efficient tool that works for us, not against us. The team at FreshWorks has been incredible in their post-sales support when we have issues, but also in general queries around Freshdesk functionality, or feature requests.

Scenario: A company wants to tailor its help desk system to fit specific workflows and integrate it with other business tools like CRM systems, project management software, and communication platforms. Why Freshdesk Works: Freshdesk allows for significant customization and integrates with a wide range of third-party applications through its marketplace and APIs, making it adaptable to various business needs.

In side by side analysis, Simplify 360 was much easier to set up teams, work flow and the brand monitoring was quite a bit more accurate

The pricing we had taken is on yearly basis but the subscription and billing frequency that we have is on monthly basis. I would not want to make any changes to it, it is a seamless process with all the contract terms and we both agreed on it. It should be as per the customer's need.

The product they have developed is amazing. They have made different products for emails, tickets, chats & calls as well. It is flexible according to multiple departments. The finance team can use it, the Customer support team is using it, we can use it in call centres, emails etc. We can use these tickets internally as well to create child tickets and assign them to different departments for query resolution.
