Overall Satisfaction with Freshservice

We utilize Freshservice for our corporate helpdesk ticketing system. It helps prioritize my IT staff workloads. Additionally, it is a great repository for out solutions articles for our users and IT department. The workflow capability helps us create simple approvals for IT processes. Trackability of assets with asset tags.
  • Helpdesk ticket tracking.
  • Work process workflows.
  • Knowledge base repository for users and IT department.
  • Freshservice integrates with many different applications like Microsoft Teams.
  • The ability to track license contracts and contract expiration.
  • The AI ability to help users with Freddy.
  • Their integration with Microsoft Outlook
  • More customization features on the user portal.
  • The project management feature is limited does not work well for collaboration among IT Department.
  • Lowered resolution and first time by half.
  • We did not have to hire another helpdesk employee so our ROI was within the first year.
  • Having a repository for solutions article allows technicians to resolve tickets faster and help users resolve their own issues.
With the use of workflows and automations it assisted with onboarding and off boarding accuracy. In return our new employees onboarding experience was a lot better and saved the organization money with quicker offboarding. The automated process lowered the time required by IT onboarding and offboarding employees.
We've had a very good experience with support issues are resolved in a timely matter. They seem to be very knowledgeable and quick to respond.
SolarWinds Service Desk helpdesk ticketing system it not as easy to use. The integration is not as good as Freshservice. Solarwinds helpdesk tickets does not show related issues as well to help resolve issues. It does not have contract tracking to assist with license expiration. Asset tracking falls short within Solarwinds. As well as automated process and integration with Azure and Domain services.
