Overall Satisfaction with Freshservice

We utilize most of Freshservice's features including asset management for hardware and software, helpdesk support, reporting, and service requests. We needed a central location to manage all of these items to better align with ITIL/ITSM in our organization and simplify the processes.
  • Asset Management
  • Ticketing
  • Service Request
  • Automation
  • Integration
  • I wish reporting was more verbose with the lower tiers of the service
  • Support for the product can be very hit and miss
  • Assets packs are too large
  • Workflow automation
  • Integrations
  • Asset Management
  • We have streamlined (and automated) most common service requests
  • We have integrated with our other systems to improve our 'birds eye view'
  • We have improved on our proactive remediation
Freshdesk works really well for ticketing, but that's it. It doesn't have most of what Freshservice can offer. You miss out on asset management, lots of automation features, and service requests. However, its API is just as robust as Freshservice and integrates nicely with Microsoft Power Automation Flow which also external automation of some tasks.

Small-medium businesses that are looking to improve their helpdesk, asset management should look no further than the price per agent and asset packs along with its feature set. We utilize the automation provided by "Workflow Automation" and its many integrations. We also take advantage of its API to integrate our other processes with this application.
