What do you dislike about the product?
-UI when typing replies does not clearly mark a difference in font and color
-FSM component doesn't allow for repeating events, which is a shame because this is one thing our company really needs
-Per user billing is inconvenient when several members of our staff only need occasional very limited access that is not worth the price of a day pass

We are using freshdesk to streamline sales inquiries, registration and database notifications, and client interaction.
It has been very helpful to have reminders and to-do lists for when our items are less straightforward

Useful help desk tool for a small team
What do you like best about the product?
The web interface for Freshdesk is easy and slick. I like the "admin" view categorizations (recently updated), which makes things easier to find now than in the past.
What do you dislike about the product?
Customer service for any questions with Freshdesk is terrible. Questions and tickets' response time is very long and requires constant follow-up. The way the agent accounts are organized and billed is also ridiculous. For a free tier, I am unable to simply add one paid agent. Instead, I have to pay for an upgraded tier, and then pay for all agent accounts (even those that are included in the free tier). Reporting tickets is also cumbersome. A separate ticket is created for each ticket list export. Finally, while Freshdesk allows merging relevant tickets, it does not have an un-merge function.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A technical team of 3 developers and a BA use Freshdesk to provide application support for multiple company-specific systems. The flow is around 250 tickets/month, and Freshdesk helps us manage it.
FreshDesk Agent Review
What do you like best about the product?
What I like about Freshdesk is how it streamlines communication across teams, making it easier to manage inter-team dependencies and track the lifecycle of each ticket through clearly defined states. Recently, I’ve also appreciated features like:
Freddy AI-powered suggestions: It helps reduce response time by recommending the best actions or solutions based on past tickets.
Customizable workspace views: These let agents tailor their ticket queues and dashboards to fit their workflow.
Collaboration enhancements: Features like Shared Ownership and Linked Tickets help teams work together on complex issues without losing accountability.
Improved automation: The new workflow automator updates let us set up complex, condition-based rules that reduce manual tasks significantly.
These enhancements not only improve operational efficiency but also elevate the overall support experience for both agents and customers.

What do you dislike about the product?
One area where Freshdesk can improve is customizable notifications — currently, it lacks the flexibility to tailor alerts exactly to individual preferences or specific use cases, which can lead to either notification fatigue or missed updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Inter-team Communication to resolve dependencies.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great platform to resolve inter-team dependencies.
Fine support software with nice Knowledgebase, but out of the box
What do you like best about the product?
The system is pretty simple and clean. The automations are easy to set-up and you don't need alot knowledge to make them.
What do you dislike about the product?
The development and support of FreshDesk is somewhat easy. They hardly acknowledge new features are needed and in some ways their software is somewhat outdated. If you check the community there are alot requests for new features which are really basic but are not implemented. Thats why I say it is an out of the box solutions. There is no way you can get all your wishes completed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for our support tickets and manage the SLA. The analysis is pretty good and is giving us good insights. Next to that we use the knowledge base to inform our customers regarding our services and portals.
Needs some work on support and intergrations

That you can integrate most of the services like WhatsApp and telegram

Freshdesk - an easy to use and effective software
What do you like best about the product?
Freshdesk lets you connect your existing apps with API easily. Easy to use admin interphase. You can easily control the things that you are going to let the agent view. Easy to create a custom dashboard and monitor your numbers live. They have a wide range of marketplace apps that enables you to customize your accounts.
What do you dislike about the product?
You can not hide different ticket fields without using the custom-built app. Parent-child ticketing is very complicated to understand. Suitable to use for email/chat support teams but not that great for voice support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have our entire customer support team working on Freshdesk. The L1 team creates tickets on behalf of the customers, and the L2 team solves those tickets in real-time and updates the customers. As our app is also integrated with Freshdesk via API, the customers also can see and reply to the tickets easily and directly from the app.
Freshdesk is a versatile tool for succeeding in a modern support environment.
What do you like best about the product?
The interface makes the job easier and has many channel connections, and is easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is difficult to make internal adaptations, and it is not well received when the response is that "...we will need a separate development to adapt a couple of ticket fields or something...".
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We adapted quickly to the IT problems from many customers with various operational methods, even creating a separate IT department.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is very easy to use, but if you have multiple customers with different needs, you will need a separate development for them. It is necessary to have separate forms for each product.
