Freshdesk offers an intuitive interface and excellent api support, making it easy to integrate with other tools in our workflow. I really like how customizable the automation and workflows are from ticket routing to SLA setup, everything can be tailored to fit our exact needs. the ability to connect with Slack, Jira and CRM tools save tons of time for our support team.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

The reporting and analytics section could be more flexible, especially when creating custom dashboards. Some integration require higher tier plans, which can be limiting for smaller teams. Also the mobile app feels slightly less responsive compared to the web version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My Experience with Freshdesk ,Simple, Smooth, and Reliable"
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

I've been using Freshdesk for a while now, and overall, it’s been a pretty smooth experience. The interface is clean and easy to get used to, even for someone new to support tools. Setting up workflows and automations saves a ton of manual effort. I particularly like how organized tickets feel once you set proper categories and SLAs makes it easy for our small teams to stay on top of things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

What I dislike about Freshdesk is that some features feel a bit limited unless you’re on the higher pricing tiers. For example, a few automation options and advanced analytics are locked behind premium plans, which can be frustrating for smaller teams.

I also feel that 14 days free trial is also limited experience to user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Review of Freshdesk as a Author Support Solution in Publishing Industry"
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

Freshdesk provides a very intuitive and user-friendly interface, making it easy for both agents and customers to navigate. The automation features, such as ticket assignment and workflow management, save significant time and reduce manual effort. I also appreciate the seamless integration options with other tools, which enhance overall efficiency. The setup process is straightforward, with an intuitive interface that requires minimal technical expertise. Most features work out of the box, and the guided onboarding helps teams get started quickly. We use Freshdesk daily in Wiley journals to manage author and editorial queries efficiently. It helps us streamline communication, track tickets across different teams, and maintain consistent response times.

The platform brings all customer interactions—whether through email, chat, social media, or phone—into a single dashboard, making communication seamless. With customizable workflows and robust reporting tools, businesses can easily track performance, monitor SLAs, and gain valuable insights into customer satisfaction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

While Freshdesk is overall very effective, some advanced features are only available in higher-tier plans, which can be limiting for smaller teams. The reporting tools, although detailed, could be more customizable. At times, the system performance can slow down when handling a large volume of tickets. There is a learning curve for mastering automation and workflow customization, and the mobile app does not offer the same level of functionality as the desktop version. Some users have also noted that integrations can be tricky to set up and that Freshdesk’s own customer support response times could be improved. However, implementing more advanced features such as automation, custom workflows, or integrations with third-party tools may require additional time and some technical knowledge.

"Reliable helpdesk tool that simplifies office tasks."
What do you like best about Freshdesk?

I like that freshdesk has very user-friendly design, which makes it simple to learn and use even for non technical staff. The setup process was quick and our team could start using it without much effort. I rely on it regularly throughout the day, and wide set of features like ticket categorization, auto-assign and status tracking make managing requests more efficient. It also has strong integration options, so we can connect it with other tools we already use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk?

The platform sometimes feels crowded with too many features and it takes time to discover which ones are really useful. Some of the integration steps requires technical knowledge, which is difficult for clerical staff to handle alone. Although the customer support team is helpful but response are not always immediate.
