Read full review Groove is great for people who are wanting to provide accountability and organization for teams across your business. It is suited well for an organization that has many email requests coming in every day, because you can assign tickets to specific team members. It would not be suited for an organization that utilizes more phone support, than email support

They have great reports on response times and the average amount of time it took for a ticket to close. You can even see individuals average response times as well as specific teams. We use their Knowledge Base which is a great tool for creating FAQ and sending people to that. Read full review Cons Gladly has errors where it times out and I lose a call. Which negatively reflects on me. If a contact is not currently assigned to me and I don’t know their info I can’t find them easily even if I was associated with the ticket. The inbox could notify you better of completed tasks and keep better track of your history in your own account.

Read full review Usability It's well organized, but slow.
Read full review Support Rating Gladly is always available to support its customers. That being said, we really haven’t needed support. The product is intuitive and stable. The reality is the support we receive is more collaboration on how we can help Gladly continue to revolutionize this space.
Read full review I'm giving them a 3 for the really great support they gave for general questions. They also have a good knowledge base. I'm giving them only a 3 though because of my last customer service when I need a billing resolution. I was very disappointed in how they handled that. I also find it very bad practice to send out ONE email notice that they were raising my rate three times as much at the end of the month. When I was with
Desk.com , I had numerous emails over months letting me know their billing plans were changing. Even worse than refusing to refund me the difference was that they just stopped responding to me.

Read full review We also use
Trello for project management. I have used both systems and we like Groove because it allows for our clients to contact us via email. They do not have to go to a ticket submission page, they can just email us directly and it will create a ticket. Groove also provides analytics on how long it takes to respond to tickets
Read full review Return on Investment It positively helps us communicate with each other before we communicate with the timer if there are any questions or issues. Gladly helps prioritize email vs phone call and chat so that you are focusing on the most important task at hand. Gladly allows you to view what other representatives are doing and if they are busy or available for questions.
