    UserScape
    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.

    Raiseticket is the best tool to implement a support system for your business whether it is a small or medium business. If you have limited agents to manage the support team then it will help you to improve your support quality with timely resolution. It will analyse the ticket category and give the team keywords to close the ticket successfully with proper resolution. As it is a web-based tool, you can access this from any device from anywhere. During COVID-19 it helped our team to support our users from remote locations easily. You can also implement these on-site premises which are cheaper than others. But when it comes to modern technology, it is not providing email templates and you have to customize on your own which is a little difficult and time taking. While downloading monthly reports or customized reports it gives errors multiple times. Although we haven't faced any server down with this tool it is a little slow.

    Pros
    UserScape
    • 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.
    • HelpSpot is a fairly simple tool that has a friendly user interface. With it's more modern look, it made it easier for me personally to navigate and train team members on how to use it successfully.
    • HelpSpot allowed our team to view the responses section, which allowed our team to cut down on the time we spent responding to a ticket.

    Cons
    UserScape
    • The UI is a little dated but to be fair, shows most of the pertinent information at a glance on a well designed dashboard.
    • The UI can also be buggy at times with controls appearing in strange places. These glitches are usually corrected within a reasonable amount of time.

    • Pre-set templates could use a bit of a revamp, but nothing major.

    HelpSpot appears to be more of an old-school product but much of the recent technology is running under the surface. It has much of the compexity and customization available with Jira in tandem with the easy communications interface, not unlike Zendesk ,and some of the potential archival intelligence (in the works) of Fogbugz

    Freshdesk is also free to use like Raiseaticket. But when it comes to supporting quality Raiseaticket wins. I had several issues while using Freshdesk but their support team never replied to tickets on time. Sometimes they don't reply to tickets and later close them from their end. When choosing a software you should have knowledge of both pre-sales service and post-sales service quality of the software so that you can choose the right one. So this way Raiseaticket wins from Freshdesk.
