Freshdesk is very easy to implement. This tool is very easy to understand and adapt. Omnichannel capability enables keeping a track of every complaint from different channels, including chat, call, email, and social media. Excellent, customizable self-service portal, and AI-powered deflection tools such as Freddy AI, which help advisors provide proper resolution.

In the duration of our campaign, any requests that we made never received any pushback. Whether this was to change reporting types or creative material, Mark and Brian were able to get them implemented with ease. They made any changes swiftly and always kept a close eye on our campaign to ensure that our objectives were being met. We had weekly meetings to discuss campaign performance and they always had constructive suggestions to offer on how we can keep improving the campaign. Each meeting was very productive in discussing next steps - it was a breath of fresh air to have a team that was so knowledgeable about what they do, and truly wanted to help our campaign succeed.

Pros
Freshworks Inc
  • No prior experience with similar platforms is required to use Freshdesk. I found its interface to be quite intuitive, at least for the end user.
  • It's easy to connect with other platforms, so you can sync and manage data from other platforms because the integrations work correctly.
  • Freshdesk's technical support is quite responsive, with short and effective response times. They have easily handled my questions and issues.
  • It has tools for customizing automated chats, answering frequently asked questions before transferring to an agent. Its configuration is extensive and highly customizable.

  • There can be a language barrier with support and sales.
  • There were a couple of hours-long outages that significantly impacted my company's customer experience.

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

Usability
Freshworks Inc
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!

Reliability and Availability
Freshworks Inc
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.

Performance
Freshworks Inc
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.

Support Rating
Freshworks Inc
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.

Implementation Rating
Freshworks Inc
Our team easily implemented Freshdesk, and as soon as we started, we were pros with it. In a matter of days, we had integrated signatures and canned responses. The biggest problem was the Help Center part, but after some time, that was also integrated. We did not know some features when we started, but that is normal.

Help Scout is more focused on providing a simple and efficient ticketing system.

Compared with other vendors, the customer experience that you get with Think ABM is vastly different from other vendors. It's not a simple "plug and play" kind of campaign where you hear from the vendor at the end of the campaign, or at the end of every month where you get a report that just lists your CTR. Not only that, they curate their own TAL to go in tandem with your own list, so that you are able to reach your targeted accounts while increasing your exposure to other companies as well which is great from an awareness standpoint. Their offerings in awareness also consisted of native, display, video, and OTT/CTV - differing from just your traditional display/native options. These can also be paired with lead gen to fully optimize on your ROI.

Contract Terms and Pricing Model
Freshworks Inc
I was not very involved with the purchase/contract (my company purchased Fresjdesk before I was brought on), but I will say that pricing per agent made it difficult to grow our support team. Additionally, we were kind of disappointed after our upgrade because it didn't solve our pain points as much as we expected.

Scalability
Freshworks Inc
My company had Freshdesk agents from support and success. It's generally difficult to customize permissions for different agent "roles." We were a fully distributed company, so "multiple sites" doesn't apply to us. We found Freshdesk features lacking as we grew our customer base, and adding agents wasn't easy because price steeply increases with number of agents.
