Helpjuice vs Freshservice: Which is a better fit?

Brad T.: Hi, I'm Brad. I'm the application support manager in higher education and I rate Freshservice four out of five. So there is a couple of different software options I was looking for in my use case. So the biggest thing, I was looking for an ITSM tool with good CMDB capabilities. And so I looked at Zendesk, also at Freshdesk, that's by the same company that makes Freshservice. And landed on Freshservice because they had the CMDB component that I was looking for. So, there's two deciding factors that made me go with Freshservice for the use case that we had. One, it was ITIL-based. And so, it has incident management, change management, problem management, and release management, with good workflows built in. And of course, the CMDB to get a good inventory of our environment. The integration of rolling out for a service for our company was really easy, especially because it's a SaaS. It's just, you pick your domain name and it's ready to go out of the box. And with being able to integrate with active directory to do single sign-on through LDAP, made it even easier for our team to adopt. The best advice I could give anyone that's looking for an ITSM platform like Freshservice, is to evaluate the use cases and what you're solving for. So, if your workflows and processes are ITIL-based, which I would highly recommend anyone that's not using the ITIL structure. For a service that's out of the box, just ready to go, totally ITIL structured. And I highly recommend it. Especially if you're looking for a SaaS with little to no overhead on maintenance. So you don't have to have your own server to host it or anything. It's just pay per seat, per month and you're good to go.
