Businesses of all sizes across the world trust Freshdesk to provide remarkable customer service.
Clinicians, physicians and medical professionals.
Freshdesk is an effective channel for providing great customer services. It helps me managing multiple stores and providing responsive services to my clients.
This means that tickets sometimes get lost, and following a ticket doesn't support me much. Also, tickets can get lost when transferred to another team.
Happy, good support and account management and good value for money compared to other services in the market.
The amount of standard features missing from a standard inbox are really disappointing - such things as being able to send to multiple recipients, saving drafts and the search function.
Applications/Addons are great for customizing. Integrations with other products are fantastic.
See: https://freshdesk.com/helpdesk-features for the real breakdown. Freshdesk has no links to that page, and you'll only get it if you ask about a missing feature in their support portal.
What a good platform that helps solve work problems in addition to concluding agreements, with the ability to collect all important messages, which makes it easy.
Tools is really inefficient and their automation tools are built by people with very little CSX experience. Everything needs to be hacked somehow.
My overall experience has been awesome. This has been a great tool that I use definitely weekly if not on most days.
Both a number of years ago and again the last two days, have had rude, unresponsive and extremely poor customer service experience.
This is the perfect tool to have on hand easily on the day to day in the hospital. Its a wealth of knowledge that is regularly updating so I feel confident about the data it provides.
Unfortunately, UpToDate is not free, so I am unable to access it when I am not on my hospital's WiFi network. That is the only major con.
We all love it in Medicine Since it’s very reliable as an online medical source. Easy to understand and useful for studying usmle exams.
Some of the links on the site are hard to obtain the information that you are looking for. The links give a lot of extraneous information without actually telling you directly what you're looking for.
I like using uptodate on my mobile phone as mobile app is very stable and user friendly. This tool is best friend for doctors.
Sometimes I'll just need a simple question answered and it's not always easy to find the answer right away, I'll have to hunt around for it.
Kayla B.: Hi, my name's Kayla. I am a communication coach, and I work for a small team of seven people, and I would rate Freshdesk a five out of five. Before Freshdesk, we were using a manual just emailing system to get back for customer support to our clients, and we moved to Freshdesk to streamline that customer service process. Freshdesk felt like a pretty obvious solution after hiring some people on the team to work specifically in customer support, and for them it was the obvious solution. They showed it to us, it seemed like a good price, good bang for our buck, and we went with it and it worked great. Freshdesk was super easy to integrate into the system. We had someone that was specialized in customer support to help train us on how to use all the best parts of the software, and it was super easy to just start to delegate certain tasks to the people who had the best knowledge to work on those tickets. And yeah, it was a pretty seamless integration process for our company. If you and your team are considering Freshdesk, then I would recommend just trying a free trial for a little bit with your team. See how easy it is, very simple to use, especially for people who are not very good at tech, which was my case in particular, but I still had to help with customer service from time to time. So do a free trial, see how it works for your team and integrate it if it feels good.
Taylor R.: Hi, my name's Taylor. I'm a physician assistant or PA. I would give UpToDate a five out of five stars. And for more reviews like this, click below. As far as business problems I'm solving with UpToDate, lots of times it's kind of reassuring that I have the right treatment plan for a patient. Other times it's looking into other possible treatment plans or who to refer to or the ways different kind of illnesses would present themselves. So kind of how to better help treat and take care of patients. I like UpToDate the most compared to kind of the other programs I've used because it's tons of information in one spot and it's easily accessible. That's my favorite thing about UpToDate. The one thing I might change about UpToDate would be how you get the CME. The CME is awesome and it's super helpful, but it's lots and lots of clicks to get that continued medical education. I like the ease of it compared to all other CME, but I think it could even be easier if there were less clicks involved.
