Overall Satisfaction with Freshdesk

We've been using Freshdesk for one of our clients. This client had phones as their main channel to receive inquiries. With limited capacity, it's been a challenge to manage a very huge number of inbound and outbound phone calls. With the Freshchat, we've recently started to trying to divert the calls to another channel to manage the volume.

Pros

  • Chat automation
  • Ticket Management
  • Analytics

Cons

  • Customization of dashboards within analytics
  • Faster resolution time
  • Better ticket management
We were able to increase our agent's productivity when they started using Freshdesk. We were able to implement automations that will take away any unproductive tasks of an agent. It has helped in making sure that agents only work on the tickets that needed their attention. It has also helped in starting to balance the volume to other channels.
Automations on Freshdesk has helped us divert any ticket that doesn't require an agent to be managed accordingly. It has been helpful in making our agent productive and better manage our inbound volume. It has helped identify which concerns are most popular on a weekly basis and has helped us focus on which customers we needed to be contacted proactively to bring their concerns to a resolution much faster.
It's a matter of which one is more straightforward and beneficial for the agents. There was much more features offered with Freshdesk that could help our business flow and workflow which is why we've opted to use it for a client. There was also less cost to using it compared to using Zendesk where we would've paid more.

It was very manageable and easy to put up widgets within the dashboard. However, it was very challenging to export the data that we need for further analysis. The added widgets has it's own assigned data on export which is lacking in some cases because we need more data tied to the tickets than what the export function includes in the report.
