What do you like best about the product?

Freshdesk makes it easy to designate teams and ticket queues, group contacts by customer, and search prior ticket submissions. It's simple to create custom ticket views based on various criteria. We selected Freshdesk after comparing over a dozen similar systems, and we've been very happy with the choice.

What do you dislike about the product?

1. Linking tickets works, but having to do it via a tracker is inelegant, and shouldn't be a requirement.
2. Sharing ticket access with members of different groups is also clunky. You shouldn't have to make someone a collaborator or a watcher, you should just be able to add them to an "access" list.
3. Managing tags can be very unwieldy. Maybe AI could be used to help identify tag typos and possible duplicates (e.g., "CCDuplicateCharge" and "DupCCCharge", or "DuplicateRefund" and "RefundDuplicate").
3a. When multiple entities share one instance of Freshdesk, only tags for that entity should be searchable. Even better: each group has its own set of tags.
4. Agents should be able to belong to multiple groups, but choose which queues will auto-assign tickets to them. Currently, when you get added to a group, enabling ticket assignment sends tickets from all groups.
