### "Has made our help desk much more streamlined."

December 13, 2017

5.0

Streamlined our customer service team role by providing the right information with the tools to action it.

Pros

It has taken all of our marketplace messages, from eBay to our website and combined them all into one easy to understand message inbox, it is ordered so your always replying to the most urgent messages first no matter which marketplace the message has come from, it also has a count down timer next to each message so you know how long each message has been waiting, particularly important when Amazon requires a reply in 24 hours. One of the main advantages is that most if not all messages sent from a customer will import into one message thread, so if a customer is trying to play customer services off different representatives it is great for reading back through what has or hasn't been said, both by the customer and your own customer services. There are a number of other features such as auto reply's and folder sorting an flagging that we haven't used, but they seem like very useful features for some business. One area that has helped greatly save time is the template feature that drags in customer information, allowing you to have a list of predetermined reply's but the emails are still personalised to the customer, with names, addresses, usernames etc all importable to a message. Xsellco are always developing the platform and adding new features, live chat is something we plan to explore further in the future, all in all a great bit of software.

Cons

From a set up point of view, having to attach each market place individually for each country you sell in can be a long process, given the Amazon integration requires a little more work than the eBay sites also, that is more to do with Amazon and eBay, rather than Xsellco though. Their is a lot too Xsellco also and option can be hidden in menus you'd not think to look in. I think an ability to have a test environment within Xsellco would be beneficial for automated reply testing and generally helping you test templates etc. The live chat does need fleshing out a bit, but as previously stated, they are updating all the time. Overall not many negatives.

### "eDesk review"

August 29, 2023

4.0

I was a bit disappointed that my latest inquiry about a new feature went unanswered. This lack of response impacted my overall experience with the platform.

Pros

I’ve been using eDesk as a support ticket management platform for Etsy, eBay, Amazon, and Shopify. Overall, I find it to be an average solution.

Cons

The platform is slightly expensive but offers decent features for managing multiple channels.

### "Honestly, eDesk just works"

August 30, 2023

5.0

Pros

Don't miss a customer inquiry ever again. eDesk has helped me keep tabs on customer correspondence and has put our team into the category of companies that take care of their customers.

Cons

I don't know if I have found it yet, but we need some automatic programming tools.Preset programs that will sort customer emails based on eDesk users already use.

### "Nice solution for Customer Service"

August 30, 2023

4.0

Pros

. Without doubt, the biggest plus is the connection to all marketplaces. No need to go to every marketplace to answer every customer, everything is synchronized in the eDesk inbox. . Another plus is the immediate availability of all customer information, including order and tracking numbers. If a customer has sent us a message directly, without going through the marketplace, we can also easily link it to their order. . Last but not least, snippets and templates. You can prepare full responses or partial responses, and use them very easily to reply to customers.

Cons

One of the key features highlighted by eDesk is its artificial intelligence. We'd have dreamt of a solution that could scan all past exchanges with customers and produce appropriate responses. But very objectively, there's nothing behind it, it's a feature that we never use at all. The number of cases for which it is possible to use their tool is very limited, and a response based on a template is generally much more effective.

### "It used to be so good"

May 29, 2020

2.0

Overall, we are disappointed with the product and the service.

Pros

When "eDesk" was "xsellco" it actually worked, so that was nice.

Cons

It doesn't work. You have to close out the software sometimes to get it to refresh. You will occasionally not be able to open attachments, use snippets, or copy/paste. You will check all folders to make sure there are no overdue messages and then come in the next day to several messages that spontaneously appeared overnight. The "To Do" folder will say one number but then there is not that number of messages in the folder, so the information it displays isn't correct. Every time we try to talk to customer service, they tell us how to sort the messages within the folder, which is not even the complaint we have (though the filters do reset every single time you leave the folder, so you have to re-organize all of your filters every time). Overall it is a terrible site that took away all of the functionality that it previously had. They claim that it is six times faster to answer emails, but it takes twice as long. It reformats your snippets in messages to add extra spaces that need to be taken out every time. It is all ridiculous, especially because it USED to work.

### "Live Webchat could be better, Sensitive Insights can be found in the Home tab."

January 19, 2022

3.0

Pros

Easy to use integrations, performance metrics and data are easy to access, constantly updated and informative for decision making and training. Using an inbox as a ticketing software is

Cons

The built in webchat is confusing for customers, it often is mistaken for an email contact form. The chat experience is restrictive and feels like instant email, can't tell if a customer is typing or if they have left the chat for good or not. The user permissions are helpful for structuring a department, but user performance data under Insights is still available to those without permissions in the home tab, which defeats the purpose of user permissions

### "E-desk Techincal Support"

November 29, 2021

5.0

I have practically trained myself on how the application works, I went from reading the material to appliying it hands on with creating rules, setting tags, and assigning tickets automatically. It is very user friendly and the fact that we have technical support available during our work hours is excellent when reporting issues or asking for help, they are always ready and willing to assist.

Pros

The ability to create rules, also the ability to be able to have the tickets automitcally assigned, and the tags are excellet to have as well so we can sort out the workload and see where we need to have priority.

Cons

Would love to have the ability for e-desk to not assign tickets if the agents are not logged in. Since they belong to a rule the distribution continues to happen even when they are not here.

### "Really useful tool, saves time and has nice UX. Has room for improvement"

November 28, 2017

4.0

saves time and brings CS all under one roof.

Pros

The biggest pro is the fact that you can see the order details in the sidebar when dealing with tickets, this is the biggest win over other helpdesk software we demoed. Xsellco offer all the details that you need. The usability/UX design is really nice, and templates are super for saving time.

Cons

The organisation and filter options of the tickets, allowing the customer greater control. This could be greatly improved. The biggest improvement we would like to see is the ability to easiest group list the tickets by sales platform. We use to be able to do this in Zendesk and it was perfect. Secondly the way tickets are auto assigned 'Type' from Amazon is set, and does not allow the customer to alter. A lot of tickets are assigned 'System Message' when they should not be. There are quite a few other tweaks that would make it run smoother from a usability point of view.

### "Fantastic UI clean and simple, data is easy to visualize from the dashboard!"

July 17, 2017

4.0

Pros

Clean and simple user interface. Visualisation of data is perfect for our user to take in. Everything integrates into the same dashboard.

Cons

Filtering message by a channel is not possible or not obvious. When hovering over the heart icon or the bell, there isn't anything to explain what this is. Iconography is great but only if the user is informed as to what it is. A heart icon to one person could be understood as something completely different to another person. Tooltips never hurt anyone.

Hi Ben, I really appreciate your feedback! This is really interesting and something I'll definitely pass onto the team. The filtering function in the software is in fact quite granular, so this is definitely possible. Could you send an email to our support team at support@xsellco.com and ask them to put you in touch with me? I'll be happy to go through this with you. Kind regards Lorna

### "We have been using XSellco's Helpdesk product for over a year and find it largely does all we need."

December 19, 2017

4.0

Allows us to efficiently manage customer messages from all our sales channels.

Pros

\- One of the tightest integrations with Amazon and eBay we have come across. - Out of office responses that actually work with Amazon. - User friendly. Very quick and easy to setup. - Clean interface that is relatively customisable. - Good support for different languages. - Good automation with templates and rules. - Folders allow for the addition of custom ticket labels.

Cons

\- Poor chat widget - we chose to use a different provider for this functionality which is a shame as it is not all under one hood. - Average reporting features that do not allow for exclusion of spam from ticket volumes and lack granular control. - Habit of truncating long message subjects (although I think this has been resolved now). - Search feature lacks ability to search custom fields without careful selection of correct customer filter in advanced search.

Overall a good value product. Price has increased recently which was quite big but in general a very good product as helps us combine emails from all our sales channels.

Pros

Has a lot of features for a very good price compared to competitors. Have used for 2+ years and would not consider changing as never had any problems, any small things customer services has sorted out asap.

Cons

not the best interface and could look a bit more appealing. Could make some features a little less clumpy

### "I set-up a trial account to compare with other email solutions. Setup was very easy. "

September 29, 2017

3.0

Pros

Easy to setup and user-friendly. Unlimited user accounts.

Cons

Helpdesk: It does not filter all system messages and junk. This is a problem since monthly plans are billed according to number of support tickets. This wouldn't be a problem if pricing is billed per user, like SalesForce. Feedback: It does not filter out refunded orders. This is the most important feature for us. We send emails for product reviews. Our return rate is about 5%. We can not send product review emails for the returned orders. It does not have global black list for Amazon customers who opted out from emails. Order download speed is very slow. After 3 days, about 900 orders were downloaded. FeedbackFive downloaded 36,865 orders in 3 hours. Repricer: We are a private brand. I don't actually need a repricer, but I need to find out piggyback sellers who list knock-offs on our product pages. Repricer doesn't have this feature, but if you can add asin tracking feature showing piggyback sellers, private brands would buy it.
