### "Awesome ITSM, but maybe too expensive"

May 20, 2021

5.0

Pros

I think the incident management part is the most easy to use that I've come across. Of course it has room for improvements (e.g., some tickets get duplicated when replied by email) but it was all set-up in our organization in two days.

Cons

The user provisioning. We had to invest on coding time to synchronize users just because the sync agent doesn't let you filter by Active Directory OUs.

### " An ITIL web-based help desk with effective ticketing and financial services"

March 13, 2021

3.0

is a delightfully easy-to-use, easy-to-configure ITIL powered cloud-based IT desk management platform. FreshService suits brilliantly in companies whose employees require help from a broad spectrum of divisions. This offers customers the freedom to search for the choices that your business makes.

Pros

serves our association as like a helpdesk, allowing us to accommodate a range of requests across the group, handled by few departments. Thanks to the ability to develop a catalog of items for customer support, they will perform operations related to knowledge processing, facilities and many others. Through making various choices within admin row, you can customize the support desk to the desires of each team.

Cons

Workflow devices are awesome, but we also have issues with purchasing and business procedures are improperly applied because a variety of problems are reported in a one ticket. We can't discover the reports intended to be helpful and we like to be competent of building reports based on various areas or perhaps even keywords.

### "Fresh Service Survey Feedback "

October 6, 2022

4.0

Great Customer Support!

Pros

Intuitive, great tool for the cost. This product was already used by the organization when I started using it.

Cons

A couple of opportunities to make a better tool: 1) Historical data should not get touched ever. Ex: when removing fields from an SR form, history no longer reflects those fields. The workaround is to make the fields Invisible and Optional and the revised form. Not a great practice. 2) Copy / Paste fields within a form, even though the field names are updated since you can not have multiple fields with the same name, once you change one field, all others get updated. 3) Wish to have multiple levels of Dependent sections within a SR form. 4) Adding Custom Ticket Status adn arranging in alpha order can become a very painful experience.

### "Freshservice is pretty decent"

October 10, 2022

4.0

Overall, it is a good product. It's not as customizable as say Remedy, but that can be overkill depending on how big your shop is! This product definitely helps keep you more organized, customizing is pretty easy - but doesn't always work as you would expect.

Pros

is easy to use. Their support is very friendly and responsive, but there isn't always a solution. If it's a bug or a suggested improvement, they log tickets and pass it along.

Cons

Reporting isn't very robust and limited as far as my experience is. What is there does look nice though. The Project Management section we ended up abandoning as it was too cumbersome and switched to Smartsheets.

### "We've been using FreshService for over a year now and don't see a reason to change :)"

June 3, 2018

5.0

We switched from Autotask which was too costly for us. allowed us to cut costs practically to zero and also introduced automatic asset tracking for some of our clients' equipment. Another great feature is the ability to use keyboard shortcuts that allows me to do my work faster.

Pros

It's quite easy to set up and start using. We really like the asset management feature - it's helpful to be able to assign tickets to devices so that later we can spot trends. didn't have on time tracking feature that we wanted and their support team was very helpful in implementing a custom solution for us. The ability to have 3 agents for free is incredible for small shops that are just starting.

Cons

It currently lacks integration with one of our monitoring tools so we spend quite some time closing tickets that are no longer valid but that will be solved in the future. It's great they support multiple languages but would appreciate if they provided email notification templates in each of the languages they support.

### "Freshservice"

May 20, 2021

5.0

is by far the best help desk/ticketing system I've ever worked with. The speed and ease of use make Freshservice the best help desk platform I've ever worked with in my 15 years of IT experience.

Pros

For our users its been a real nice tool for submitting help requests into our IT department. A variety of options and configurations allowed us to customize our portal to provide our users with the best help desk experience possible.

Cons

I wish I could add my own custom pages to the custom help desk portal. Love the ability to customize the current portal but it would be even better if I could add my own custom pages to the portal for instance ~ a secondary onboarding portal for a different HR team in our company.

### "great tool for handling tickets by mail or phone "

September 28, 2022

5.0

monitoring of the tickets and their flow has drastically improved with the use of .

Pros

We like the most that we were able to set up different departments in the software and tickets can be moved easily between them. Also the customization of the tool can go pretty far.

Cons

Some feature request that seem pretty straight forward take forever to develop.

### "Freshservice covers all our requirements for ITSM"

March 29, 2018

5.0

A better, more efficient support for our customers with an 360° view over all assets, contracts and sla's.

Pros

At first, we like the modern and intuitive User Interface. Then, all our requirements about an ITSM solution are fulfilled (processes, reporting, solutions db, assets, contracts and so on). support our administrators in the daily business. The productivity tools like the Dispatch'r or Oberserver are awesome. The daily passes are cost effective for our consultants, who do not work with Fresh every day. In short: A modern and fresh ITSM tool with a lot of really nice feature, but not too complicated and "overloaded".

Cons

Our own fields (assets etc.) can not be selected for reporting. Overall, the reporting is too inflexible. It's possible to enhance ticket and other forms with own fields. Unfortunately with no relation to the standard fields or re-use. The support is sometimes really slow and you will wait for an answer.

### "Task Management"

November 24, 2020

4.0

Overall, this was an easy software to learn and helped our team be more collaborative, efficient, and productive.

Pros

When I became the \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] for our school district, this is the first ticket management system I've ever used. It took a while to get our employees used to putting in help requests, but now they know this is the fastest way for them to get service. The workflow management helps get requests to the right person, and we love the parent/child ticket option. Most companies don't offer this and it has really helped when we have multi-layer tasks to accomplish. For the cost, this is a great product to keep your team efficient and productive!

Cons

It didn't seem to integrate our inventory as seamlessly as we liked and we prefer a more visual and user-friendly dashboard.

May 20, 2021

Pros

Integration capabilities, asset management, alerting, purchase orders, analytics, mobile app, change tracking, release tracking, problem tracking, etc. This solution has so many useful tools available. No need to purchase 3rd party solutions to make it all-inclusive.

Cons

Some bugs here and there. Limitations to self-brand your portal. Limitations to associate tickets to service requests. Gamification is severely lacking, wish could offer Kaizo gamification integration.

May 11, 2023

4.0

We use Fresh Service for our customer support portal, with login access to self-help solutions, prompted responses, and messaging with live agents. The canned responses and auto solution recommendations are very helpful tools.

Pros

Simple layout, easy setup, very functional for support ticketing and tracking.

Cons

While many integrations are available, many don't work as desired or lack key features for full integration / automation of processes.

Reason for choosing Freshservice

more specific to customer support than internal support

### "FreshService - Easy to use Help Desk tool"

May 20, 2021

5.0

We are using to raise support tickets for our clients, follow up and resolve all issues presented on the tickets. We use FreshService to extract monthly reports and measure our support KPIs.

Pros

I like that the product is easy to set up and customize. Once you do customization, set up SLA policies, set up your agents and clients you are ready to go.

Cons

I don't like that agents have to manually extend the due by time. If ticket goes to pending, this time it spends on pending should be added to the due by time automatically

Really good, came from ZenDesk at previous employer to FreshDesk and then . Would take FreshService over all desks I have used.

Pros

Its clean and not cluttered. Easy to use and train new starters on. Customer service is overall great. A few changes are needed such as ability open in ticket images as a pop out like in FreshDesk and not to have some files open in a new tab but download.

Cons

Pros

Cons

more improvements are possible if they take input of our customers in terms of feedback on new functionality. Currently feedback is limited to current service quality.
