What do you like best about BoldDesk?

We are a CRM platform based in Brazil, and we previously used a GitHub project to manage customer requests.

BoldDesk has everything you could imagine in a customer service platform, including many features like APIs that we are yet to explore fully.

It allows our clients to open and track tickets easily. Every ticket generates an email notification with the details, and clients can also monitor progress through the platform.

The platform excels in documentation as well—we migrated all our documentation to BoldDesk, and the experience of editing and reading the content has been excellent.

Additionally, their customer support is outstanding, providing quick and efficient assistance whenever needed.

If we had to develop everything that BoldDesk offers ourselves, it would have taken us years and a significant investment.

BoldDesk is truly a solution with great cost-benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BoldDesk?

We don't have any significant issues with the platform.

Any minor challenges we encountered were promptly addressed by the company with solutions that met our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BoldDesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

In just a few minutes, I was able to implement a complete customer service process, with a comprehensive interface that allows for extensive customizations, fully meeting the specific needs of my project.

It also enables us to link customer inquiries directly to our knowledge base, enhancing the efficiency of our support.

Additionally, we migrated our entire team activity management to the platform.

Each ticket allows us to generate one or more tasks.

The centralization of these processes has resulted in cost reduction and process optimization, making our operations more efficient overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BoldDesk?

Bold Desk functionality provides an effective way to organize and respond to messages sent to the iVoterGuide technical support email account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BoldDesk?

My role at iVoterGuide is to assist both internal staff and customers (mostly candidates for office) when technical support is needed. Many times a response is forwarded to technical support after the inital issue gets reported. by the candidate. In these situations, there is a need to connect with the candidate rather than the ticket requestor. Scheduling the contact with the candidate is difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BoldDesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

BoldDesk provides a centralized method to address issues reported by both internal staff and external clients; mostly candidates running for public office. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BoldDesk?

Possibility of interface customization

Excellent permission management

Excellent rule management

Very comprehensive with various features

I trust in this product and I love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BoldDesk?

1. It is impossible to translate emails in the basic profile even if the interface is set to a language other than English.

2. The cost plan is not progressive: moving from the basic profile to the more advanced one makes costs skyrocket too quickly.

3. The interface is a bit confusing in some places, with too many options. Perhaps there should be an option to hide or better customize layouts according to needs.

4. Converting a user to an agent does not allow for reversal. The agent can no longer be changed back to a customer (I don’t understand why).

5. Sometimes some senders are flagged as suspicious for no apparent reason (and the tickets are suspended or worse, declared as spam). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BoldDesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reduction in the number of emails or better sharing of emails with the after-sales support group. Possibility to track communications and easily share the status of activities. I really appreciate that, from the customer’s side, everything can be managed via EMAIL without the need to register. This was one of the reasons for choosing this application.

What do you dislike about BoldDesk?

Currently what I dislike is how there are extra steps to be done such as adding auto assignments to business hours to groups or agents whereas, when we previously used freshdesk, there were automations already where we can tag business hours to groups. hope this also becomes available.

What do you like best about BoldDesk?

Bolddesk has been the only ticketing system I have tried to offer the functions necessary for a small IT team with a clear-cut division of responsibilities. Creating tasks and subtasks out of tickets, ticket linking with an excellent parent- and child-ticket system, many possibilities for automatisation, and AI features to take some of the writing burdens.

It is easy and intuitive enough for new helpdesk staff to find their way around and complex enough to offer many ways of optimising workflow.

In daily and heavy usage it still holds up and makes cooperation less troublesome.

Thanks to the customer support offered by Syncfusion the migration, implementation and integration have been easy and successful. We could migrate our settings, users, tickets, and articles from the previous software.

Lastly, in terms of pricing, it is leaps and bounds more bang for the buck. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BoldDesk?

Any other language is mostly machine-translated, and roughly so. The complexity makes it rather easy to lose track of all the features at your disposal. Managing a multilingual service desk can be clunky, requiring one to do a lot of the work more than once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BoldDesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bolddesk is used as a ticketing and knowledge base software to provide IT support to our coworkers. This has been made easier thanks to the variety of features it has. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BoldDesk?

I am an independent maintenance technician and I have agencies and property owners that I work for at any given time. Prior to initiating my service with bold desk, it was hard to keep up with what was going on, when it was happening and notifying and receiving feedback from clients. After servicing my clients with bold desk and its simple interface, I was able to better track projects, clients, task, and maintenance issues. I now have a helpful solution to provide work orders from project start to close. My clients have a customer portal where they can see work performed and interact as work is ongoing. I can also customize tickets to include or exclude information needed, and I have been able to convert some work orders for marketing and promotion campaigns for 1 client. These key features are what I like best about bold desk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BoldDesk?

Some of the things I dislike about bold desk are as follows; on my cell phone viewing bold desk from the web or app the information is too small. It's hard to update tickets in the field because of how the system looks on the phone, so I always update when I get home to the computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BoldDesk solving and how is that benefiting you?

Some of the problems bold desk is helping me solve are tracking projects (big and small), clients (corporations and property owners), tasks (routine and emergency), and maintenance issues related to property management and real estate promotions. These problems are now easliy started and finished with a high degree of documentation and client input. Benifits are more satisfiede customers and more transparency for there work orders. This system has elevated my professionalism and has allowed me to move from project to project with the confidence of fulfilling the needs of my clients and thei properties.
