Gladly CX Platform vs. HelpSpot

Any business that has a customer base could benefit from Gladly. If you call, text, social media message, etc Gladly can do all of these functions and keeps all of these conversations easily located so that you can refer back to previous conversations. The ability to leave notes on the account is very helpful.

HelpSpot is well suited for streamlining support ticketing within the organization. By providing a single point of contact to email for support, we were able to increase response time and case resolution by approximately 30% through the increased efficiency of ticket routing via workflows and the ability for IT support staff to grab tickets from the queue instead of having them pile up in a mailbox that contains other emails as well.

• HelpSpot was great for organization. Having different queues allowed each of my team members to organize their conversations with the customer and quickly retrieve the history of the ticket.
