Overall Satisfaction with Freshdesk

We use it daily for all issues/requests related to IT in our company. We offer all of our employees access to the portal as well as email to create tickets based on various issues they are experiencing. As well as any requests to current systems/practices. Tickets come in and are assigned to specific technicians based on which system the user is reaching out to us for. We implement specific resolution time frames and escalation rules based on severity and ticket open length.
  • Handles ticket creation/notification very quickly.
  • The mobile app is really well done.
  • The reports, that we use, are very easy to work with.
  • If anything, don't make everything locked down. There are certain OOB items that cannot be modified. But again, that doesn't affect/bother us at all.
  • It has greatly increased the speed at which we resolve tickets.
  • It has provided a higher detail of information in reports for management.
Initial install/setup/configuration was surprisingly very easy. The admin dashboard keeps things very clean and simple. The support knowledgebase is also very helpful with any questions/issues we had during our setup. Even switching from hosted POP/IMAP email to Exchange was incredibly easy.
We do not use Freshdesk outside of internal use.
The ticket system from Freshdesk was a breath of fresh air for us compared to Spiceworks. Freshdesk has yet to crash or stop responding (Spiceworks was on-prem and we had to re-install many times.) The reports were also far more informational to our management than Spiceworks.

Freshdesk has been a welcome upgrade for us over Spiceworks here in regards to support tickets. It has handled every customization we've put into it and there have not been any issues unless I just jinxed it. Based on our experience here with the software over the past two years, we have not run across any scenarios where it performed below our expectations.
