Overall Satisfaction with Help Scout

Help Scout is our main system for member support, contact forms, applications and just about every other email communication with our company. It helps us keep everything in one place so that all of our team members can be on top of what is happening with each interaction.

Pros

  • Great interface for tracking emails & replies.
  • Tagging system is fantastic.
  • Love the workflows to automate everything.

Cons

  • It is a bit slow sometimes, but not very often.
  • I've noticed more network errors with their server in the past year.
  • Small annoyance - they use a lot of lightbox popups and if you click outside the box all of your work is lost.
  • We don't miss any emails.
  • All emails are addressed quickly, causing our members and potential members to love us.
