Overall Satisfaction with Freshdesk

It's our ticketing system for both end customers and existing business customers and we use a lot of its features.
  • Easy to use
  • Template features (canned responses)
  • Depending on the plan you might miss out on useful features
  • Automations could have a better UI
  • A lot of good and pending Community Ideas
  • Freshdesk made it possible to track customers requests in the first place
I remember it being quite easy to set up.
They are not as proactive in giving tips on how to make the most out of their tool.
Freshdesk is cheaper.
Zendesk would also allow customers to close tickets on their own and it also has functionality where a few solution articles are automatically recommended to the customer based on what they wrote and that might already solve the customers' request.

Good for managing tickets across your team, you can categorize and tag tickets but the analytics could be better. The ticket list views could also be improved and be made more customizable.
