Overall Satisfaction with Freshservice

We use Freshservice to track 1) SAP Support issues and 2) Mobile App support issues. It helps us a) prioritize the tickets easily b) easily move from one Agent to another c) keep track of all the discussions of a ticket in one place and not in company emails d) Make sure that all the tickets are addressed in a timely manner. e) Do some analysis of how many tickets we are getting on weekly basis f) Also, using it as knowledge base for future tickets. g) Option to check tickets from mobile phone also and respond. This is really good when we are out of office and not infront of the computer.

Pros

  • Helps keep all the discussions from multiple people in one place.
  • The dashboard is good for managers as they can see tickets at high level
  • The Announcements are a nice feature, to send any updates or notifications to the entire organization

Cons

  • Ability to create 'Statuses' at each 'Group' level. It is all or nothing for the entire organization
  • When there is a image embedded, you cannot click and zoom to make it big.
  • I have heard that creating workflow automator is little tricky. Ability to create workflow at each Group level would be great.
  • Higher SLA
  • increased agent productivity by using templates for response etc
  • Overall satisfaction in the IT dept for using standard ticketing system
It took a while to understand how it works and modify our business process accordingly. We did not find any good documentation or videos earlier.
I had contacted only once and the customer service support was good.
It was not great, so we ended up not using after 1 year, and bought Freshservice
