Freshservice is a best ticketing tool for easy to use and monitoring receive tickets. It's Dashboard visualization is easy to understand. Before Freshservice tool we was facing lots of issue to make a consolidate reports. Now we have download and create easily consolidate reports and present to management through visualization tools(i.e. MS Power Bi). Also In daily base we are receive tickets from cross-functional department to Freshservice single platform this is good for us.
  • Consolidate email tickets on one platform
  • Easy to access
  • User Friendly
  • Easy to download reports
  • Freshservice AMC is little expensive compare to other similar ticketing tools products.
  • Some times customer support delay response
Freshservice good for those organization where as different-different large size of departments and not possible to meet face to face on daily base. Freshservice provide one stop solution on single platform.

I am super admin of fresh service for my organization. The tool is very user friendly for agents as well as admin and also for the users.
before 3 years I haven't heard about fresh service but when I joined the company I started using it. I learn fresh service administration within a month without any knowledge transfer. The fresh service articles also helped me to learn the tool. SO you can image how user friendly the too is and how easy to learn it. After learning tool, I build various workflows and automation which works perfectly fine. Within the organization we have onboarded various department on fresh service and I trained them on how to use it as agent. It also works with power automation and Microsoft team collaboration. Fresh service provides lot of features at basic plan. However, few features are not available at basic plan. But i will rate this tool 10/10.
  • Workflow automation
  • Knowledge base articles for users and agents
  • easy to add categories & sub category and make them compulsory so that ticket cannot be closed without filling the information
  • it works with email address very simple to create different department and queues
  • Dashboard edit & view for team with basic plan
  • Need to update fresh service support articles and they are old now and the tool is upgraded
  • Reports in specific format. The date & time column should be separated
  • there should be different type of reports available. it could be automated reports as well
It is great with workflow automations.
It works on distribution list email address for queue creation
need to give edit and view access for team dashboard on basic plan
Report can be well structured or automated

We are using freshservice as our ticketing tool and also managing Purchase order, asset management and tools for HR Onboarding, offboarding and different service requests. I find this product very good had capabilities of lot of things, also it integrates with most of the well known applications. However if a talk about particularly managing forms based services like employee onboarding, offboarding, it is not as expected. Some of the basic functionalites they lack in form based services. Support team is also good, but they can do much better i believe.
  • Ticketing tool is good
  • Asset Management
  • Support
  • Should add bulk upload there for service requests. also dynamic field should support bulk uploading
  • Text field type could be customized and controllable, like if want specific field should add only 10 characters or only alpha numeric characters. where needed we can implement text field data from other text field
Forms are customizable, anyone can create form like according to their organization requirement. support could be more improved

We use this application for our internal ticketing tool and for our customers.So far it is very smooth experiance with Freshservice.
It is very user friendly and from admin point of view it is very esay to customise as per the Customers requirement for the customer support portals.
It is best ITSM tool where we can also integrate the alerts from number of other applications.
So for the helpdesk it can be a single tool to monitor other several monitoring tools, which makes the Engineers life easy.
It has Automation, Workflow, Reporting and lot of other features.
  • Easy to integrate with other tools
  • Easy to setup as per the requirents of the customer.
  • Asset management and Reporting Analytics ca be used to track the asset in single application and to track the performance metrics.
  • For technical issues we can get quick support from the Freshservice support team.
  • Should have feature to export the tickets from the last 6 months or year, now there is no feature to export the tickets older than 6 months from the customer portal
  • We should able to see the detailed timestamp with date and time on the customer portal.Now it is generic like 5 days ago, 10 days ago.
I can say It is best suited for any size of organization who are particularly looking for large number of features like ticketing tool , asset management, self service portal, Integration with other tools, Reporting and Analytics in single tool.
For smaller organization cost may be the concern as it is subscription based software.

We use Freshservice just for its ticketing system. I can say that it works fantastic in that area. A lot of automation is possible sorting/categorizing tickets that come in. It has other functions that are available that we may expand into using in the future like hardware/software inventory management and project management.
  • Ticketing
  • Reporting
  • Admin Portal needs to be more user friendly.
It is well suited for ticket creation and keeping track of past fixes for future use.

I advised on the selection of Freshservice as the recommended IT service management solution for a newly created service desk. This was based on an assessment of a range of products against a detailed list of business requirements. <br><br>Freshservice offered the most appropriate and cost effective solution, helped by its assessment by Gartner as a 'challenger' ITSM solution.<br><br>It proved to be a product that was straightforward to setup and implement, which was assisted by the availability of a trial instance which migrated seamlessly in to a live/production instance.<br><br>The functionality is comprehensive and more than adequate for most IT service management requirements.<br><br>In addition, it comes in four 'flavours' which helps to ensure the customer does not have to pay for more functionality than they require. This can be upgraded as needed if/when requirements become more comprehensive.<br><br>It integrates with a wide variety of third party applications and solutions, which helps to ensure most needs can be met even when the functionality is not available directly within Freshservice itself.<br><br>Freshworks is a dynamic organisation which means that Freshservice is constantly evolving and improving.<br><br><br><br>
  • Intuitive to implement and maintain
  • Different 'flavours' to meet different levels of requirements
  • Comprehensive integration with third party products
  • Continually evolving
  • Responsive levels of support
  • 'Try before you buy' instance
  • Integrating chat with the Freshservice knowledgebase
  • Keeping the solutions up to date with the changing functionality
Due to it's scalability, Freshservice is suitable for most organisations requiring a service management solution.

Access to the code is limited therefore it might be less suited to those organisations requiring infinite configurability.

Freshservice is used by us as a Ticket System for registering reports with our customers.Freshservice ensures that we have an overview of calls, can see progress in the solution and follow-up on the agreed Service Levels.In addition, Freshservice is the application that sends and receives data from other applications.
  • Easy to enter tickets
  • Easy to set up even if you are new to freshservice
  • Nice front end for our customers
  • Asset- and/or configuration management is not at its best yet
  • Filtering of tickets can be better
  • Analyses can be better. Make use of custom fields and relations between fields
It is well suited as a MSP service management tool. Although it is more setup for internal IT support.
I would like a better integration with other applications. API can be better described.

We were using a legacy Windows based computer ticketing system that was in dire need of replacement. Freshservice provided an extensive ticketing system, as well as many other features. We are currently using tickets, asset inventory, workflow, and are in the process of implementing other features, such as change management and project management.
  • Ticket tracking and management
  • Workflow automation
  • Asset & Inventory Management
  • Project Managment
  • Change Management - Current system is geared towards full software or system change management. It would be great to have a simple Yes/No approval without having to utilize their workflow tools.
  • Data selection filters - Overall, their data filters are very good, but it would be useful to have "Last Week" and "Last Month" in the date selectors.
Freshservice is a set of building blocks that can be used "off the shelf" but takes a fair amount of configuration to take full advantage of its capabilities. Freshservice has excellent onboarding support as well as long-term support. It seems to be geared towards mid-size businesses, but could be a good fit for larger small businesses as well as businesses with a few thousand employees. One thing that's very impressive is the continued enhancement and development of existing and new features. These features fit in very well with the existing environment and show attention to detail in how they are designed.

We did not have a ticketing system in place for IT issues/requests when I was hired. We implemented Freshservice and it has fit our needs exactly. Our users submit multiple request types and there are two different teams that handle their respective requests.
  • Allows emails to be sent to different emails addresses which create tickets that are assigned to different support teams automatically.
  • Allows administrators to fine-tune permissions for the support technicians, with some being basic helpdesk, and some having the ability to handle automations and integrations within the Freshservice admin portal.
  • Creates a end user portal where they can submit tickets, request items, submit onboarding forms, and view ticket statuses.
  • Pulls device information from Dell once devices are in inventory based on the serial tags, such as warranty expirations.
  • The Onboarding feature is super cool but difficult to set up and roll-out.
  • It would be cool if there was an Outlook add-in like Jira has.
If you need a support desk solution, no matter what size the company, Freshservice is a great platform. The Admin portal is easy to use for managing and setting up the core features, even setting up SSO, but it also has so many features available that you can really dial it in to do a lot more than basic support desk. Asset Management is also very helpful.

We use it for ticketing, project management, and problem tracking. The application makes it easy to keep track of our user's problems, resolutions, and feature requests.
  • Incident management
  • Onboarding assistance
  • Inventory tracking
  • The ability to configure the portal more
Freshservice is great for any organization that needs a ticketing system and has over 200 employees

I dont think it would be useful in an organization that is smaller and that can be suited with a less expensive option

Freshservice is mainly used by our company IT ServiceDesk agents to support end users throughout all departments for office globally (Malaysia, Singapore, Norway, UK, Brazil, Amsterdam, Nigeria and Ghana) for the past one year. Until recently, we soft-launched to end users to submit their IT issues via the Freshservice portal and assigned to IT ServiceDesk agents.
  • Ease to submit ticket
  • User can monitor their own tickets
  • Easier and automated reports send to respective IT personnel
  • Easy to modify the Form Fields
  • Easier administration
  • Auto-assign does not work very well even the Agent option has been enabled
  • The new analytic reporting quite confusing and need to learn it
  • Good to have a version control on workflow automation that allow me to rollback if there's any issues.
Freshservice is easy to implement to IT use and rollout for end users. Any changes to the interface or Freshservice need to notify the customer first. I have encountered cases activation email notification was sent to users automatically with the new FreshWorks and it has caused confusion with users. Some are treated it as phishing email.

We are using Freshservice across all of our internal business operations functions including IT, HR, Legal, Risk, Finance, Compliance, BI, Operations and InfoSec. Previously this was all being managed via email. This has allowed a very structured approach to resolving end-user issues and not just IT issues. Teams are able to see reporting on incident/service requests and create service catalog items to make capturing info easier. It's really made things easier for the teams providing support as well as improving the experience for end users.
  • The dashboard view of your tickets is great and you can easily see your own tickets as well as those assigned to your team.
  • Reporting is quick and easy, the canned reports are fine but the custom reports are easy to create using drag and drop widgets.
  • Setting up multiple support teams and creating tickets from inbound emails is also easy to do.
  • I would like to see more sort and filtering options on the dashboards, eg just view all open tickets by a particular user or category. Even to sort by username.
  • Sometimes the dashboard screen doesn't render properly. Have seen this multiple times by a refresh or clicking to another area in Freshdesk and back to the ticket dashboard again usually fixes it.
  • Being able to change the org name would be good. We still have our old company name appearing and I've been told it's not possible to change that.
I would definitely recommend FreshService for those looking to manage the ITSM environment themselves and that don't have developer skills internally (SNOW is very complex in comparison). I would also recommend using it for teams outside of IT and making use of the business agent licensing model which is less expensive than the IT agent licensing.

We predominantly use Freshservice to manage IT requests (incidents and service requests), Asset Management, and Projects. Within this scope, we also utilize the knowledge base and built-in Analytics solutions as well.
  • Freshservice handles the incident management lifecycle quite well which includes maintaining parent-child relationships of tickets, merging tickets, and maintaining requesters.
  • Integration with MS Teams has provided a positive experience for our clients.
  • The API has provided us the flexibility to integrate with the School Management system to maintain requesters.
  • It would be great for Freshservice API to extend the functionality to import user profile photos
  • The project functionality currently does not provide users to alter the list of available statuses. There are projects which can fall outside the standard list of statuses provided.
  • Requester management allows the creation of custom fields. We use this facility to classify our requesters (eg. Teachers, Students, and Parents). However, the analytics does not allow us to utilize the custom fields therefore we aren't able to obtain ticket analytics breakdown by classification.
Using an industry leading ITSM tool helped us to organise IT helpdesk operations and achieve improved service levels. This move was indeed a huge step up from the former ticketing system. For example, features such as canned responses, and suggested KB articles have achieved improved productivity and less average handling times.

We are a cloud managed services provider and using Freshservice from last 3 years. I find this user-friendly to work with, you do not need to know any coding language to perform admin related tasks. I could setup the tool in my organization from scratch where the experience with onboarding team was truly amazing and supportive.
I would also like to mention that the possibility of automating tasks in Freshservice is the best USP of this ITSM tool, you can create multiple schedulers, automaters and supervisor rules which reduces a lot of your manual tasks
Since when I started using Freshservice I never thought of switching to any other tool and I also recommend to my clients to use this tool for their ITSM needs.

  • Workflow Automation
  • Schedulers
  • MSP Mode
  • Easy integration with communication tools
  • User Articles provided by Chatbot
  • Machine Learning algorithm to predict the SLA meet probability
Automating tasks, getting fields populated automatically, easy to perform admin tasks is the best thing of this tool.
For us, it matches all our needs so no as such area of improvement but yes I would like to mention that technology is getting to next level and we should thing of integrating ML, AI

We use it as an IT ticketing systems to log issues for resolution. The system allows us to track and monitor issue resolutions. This translates to better efficiency and productivity. The scope includes staff, parents and students to log their tickets For staff, they have the options to log via email and using the Freshservice Portal.
  • SLA setup allows us to prioritize tickets
  • Assignment of tickets with the ability to generate report on the distribution of tickets
  • Setup of Knowledge Base allows for self-help on Portal
  • Some missing functionalities on mobile app vs web-based platform
  • AI not intuitive enough that re-opens resolved tickets when user reply by email
  • Not able to capture Google Chat/Soft Phone Call as ticket
For users who logged tickets via email or portal, there is the ease to do so. However, when the users appear at Helpdesk Window, there is no easy way to capture the tickets without a user login. As we operate in a school and have walk-ins, we are missing out on this traffic to capture the number of incidents.

Freshservice is a cloud-based IT service management (ITSM) platform that helps organizations streamline their IT operations and provide better support to their employees and customers. It offers a range of features, including incident management, problem management, change management, asset management, and more.
Freshservice is well suited for organizations that need a comprehensive, easy-to-use ITSM platform to manage their IT operations and support their employees and customers. It is particularly well-suited for organizations that have a large number of IT assets, as it allows them to track and manage these assets in a centralized location.
Some specific scenarios where Freshservice may be well-suited include:
  1. Organizations that need a way to track and manage IT incidents and problems: Freshservice's incident and problem management features allow organizations to track, prioritize, and resolve IT issues in a timely and efficient manner.
  2. Organizations that need a way to manage IT changes: Freshservice's change management features allow organizations to plan, schedule, and execute IT changes in a controlled and structured way.

Freshservice is used for addressing IT requerimients from users and internally. Basically, any requerimient that needs to be processed by IT team goes through the Freshservice application.
  • Tracking
  • Channels management
  • KPI
  • GUI
  • Configuring support channels is not easy sometimes. i.e. configure email chanel requires update SPF and DKIM records and could harder for no experienced IT staff. Maybe there are more easy ways to accomplish this.
  • It would be great if somehow throuh AI Freshservice could create a F.A.Q database. i.e. you receive frequently phones tickets and all of them have the same sollution. In that case, an automatically answer could be send back to the user.
For IT management is perfect. It helps managers to have the whole picture of the current tickets situation for the helpdesk department. It also helps tracking the status of each tickets and also helps manager to identify those tickets that are stuck.

I don't think Freshservice could be used for other scenarios than helpdesk/IT related requirements. But there are others more suitable for that like Freshdesk.

Prior to FreshService, the business used spreadsheets and email to log, track and manage tickets and changes. We were unable to see any trends or perform any root cause analysis as the data was held in multiple repositories. Also, we had no way of tracking our assets and software, again this information wasn't updated which resulted in over-licensing.

All our users are now able to see the status and any updates on their tickets, they also have access to the knowledge base which means that they don't even need to log a ticket in the first place.
  • Incident Management
  • Alert integration
  • Service Portal
  • Workflow automation
  • Project Management - it's just a bit clunky and needs to be simpler and more intuitive
  • Analytics - maybe some sample dashboards
In our monthly reporting meetings, we can quickly present our annual trending on tickets, present what our monthly spend is on IT and onboard new users professionally as we capture all tasks necessary for new starters.

Freshservice makes working in IT alot easier. It offers several features, my favorites being the Asset management recordings and being able to easily view performance and how agents are doing overall. The report features offer some exceptional data statistics which can definitely help in seeing whats majorly impacting on an organization and which areas need to be focused on improving/automating.
  • Tracking Agent Performance
  • Tracking and Maintaining Helpdesk backlog
  • Keeping a track and record of Assets and Equipment
  • Reporting Functionality
  • Can improve in simplifying the GUI
  • Adding in Time cards(When agents login in and out of the system - Time session)
  • Add on a remote in feature(Create a built in Remote desktop feature) - Link the ticket to a remote session for a user to take control and help a user without needing a third party remote tool(Teamviewer etc)
Freshservice is a very accurate app, allows tracking on your mobile as well, which allows tickets to be attended to on time and within an SLA periode

Freshservice is our help desk software and the main way we manage assets. We install the client on each device and in turn that drops the specs of the machine into the system. On a day-to-day basis we receive and answer help desk tickets and as they are worked on can stay in varied states until completed. Users submit a ticket and depending on who gets to the ticket from within our team, they are assigned. Sometimes tickets are assigned by me as the manager.
  • Tracks assets and details
  • Provides one central location for tickets
  • Ease of responding to users through a nicely laid out interface
  • Provides a great dashboard to view all current and pending tickets
  • Once a ticket is resolved and closed if a user responds back it is automatically opened back up. The toggle button for this feature is all or nothing.
  • When the client is installed on the user end not having the software assign an automatic asset tag number. Maybe leaving that field blank or creating a feature where you can turn this on or off.
  • I really can think of any, I really have no complaints about the software
Freshservice is a pretty easy software to use. Within a matter of a few hours, I have a general sense of how the interface worked. I was able to train my colleague fairly fast given the ease of the software itself. After installing the client software on a device it creates a very simple way of tracking assets and being able to have full details on the device itself such as serial number, model, OS, last person to login and the last time it touched base with the server. This is searchable by device name which makes it a little easier to narrow down the search.

I am extremely pleased with our implementation of Freshservice! This product has literally transformed our tech department from good to great. If customer service is your thing then you need to take a look at Freshservice. It is easy to use, contains valuable analytics, and provides end users with the communication they need.
  • Agent reviews
  • Email communication
  • Customizations
  • Reporting
  • Customization on reporting
Our users are able to email their problems to a specific address that automatically generates a ticket. We really appreciate this feature for our staff. This gives our staff a one-stop shop for any problem they have. The ticket is then automatically assigned to the proper agent based on location. It works great!!
