Solid, Reliable Ticketing Tool for our Marketing Function

Reviewed on 14/08/2023

Pros

Great ticket-management tool for our Marketing function. 40+ users.

Cons

As an IT-ticketing-borne tool, it does not always cater to the needs of a Marketing team. For more sophisticated Marketing planning, collaboration and reporting, we have now started using Freshservice.

Easy customizable ticket creation options with automated routing and responses. Good analytics for tracking ticket metrics.

Ticket routing automation requires a lot of setup but worth it once complete.

As a ticketing tool, it is perfectly serviceable. All communication is done within the app, so records can be easily maintained.

Pros

It was really easy to use. To Search for any tickets, or for an individual ticket.Has an API that it easy to use. It was used for inventory management. I believe it also has a network scanner.All communication with clients can be done within the App.

Cons

Wasn't Azure compatible, or at least we didn't set up that way, so it was another password to remember.

It has been an overall great experience and I highly recommend it.

Pros

I love how easy it makes it to manage support tickets and requests; while also being able to handle bug, change and release management for the IT Team.

Cons

Despite having quite robust automations, some of the automations have limitations that require code or change requests to the FreshService team to be made.

User-friendly and Organized

Reviewed on 03/09/2024

Pros

Freshservice is how we submit requests for assistance to our IT department. It is extremely user friendly, and the department was able to create solutions that employees could search (like FAQ's) to troubleshoot their own issues prior to submitting a ticket. Once a ticket has been submitted, the IT employee receives an email and is able to respond via that email, shortening response time. Tickets are also able to be sorted/filtered easily, making everything feel organized. Personally, I always dread having to bother IT as I'm sure they are kept busy, so I was grateful the process seemed streamlined for them (from a non-IT perspective.)

Cons

Luckily, I have not yet had many issues requiring me to submit IT tickets, so cannot say I have experienced a negative.

Very good experience. But when our organization became bigger and more systems were buildt, we found freshservice didn't have enough capability for integration. So it's hard to keep FreshService in our IT eco system

Pros

Intuitive UI. Easy to self-study and self-deploy. Global wide search is very useful as well

Cons

Not enough integration. Can't connect with other systems

Everything related to work may be found in one convenient location. It's perfect for storing company guidelines, demands, and procedures. It also has pre-built connections to popular services like Gmail, Slack, and more.

Pros

Automated processes and operational flow. Adding a new integration and automating task pushes is a breeze. To date, automation has allowed us to cut our work time by as much as 60 percent.

Cons

While the sheer number of configuration options may seem daunting at first, you'll quickly gain the expertise to tailor freshservice to your exact needs as you gain experience with IT service management.

I've really enjoyed having Frehservice in our organization. It has made my job as a manager much easier in that I can easily review team performance, post announcements for the organization, and identify trends in issues or requests.

Pros

Freshservice has been a game-changer for our organization. The service catalog and user-friendly interface has allowed our employees to improve their productivity over the past 2+ years we have had the system implemented. The customizable forms and workflow has allowed our IT department to streamline processes and improve efficiency.

Cons

I wish the reporting capabilities were more customizable. There have been a few situations where I reached out to Frehservice for support on reports I needed but found the reports were not possible. The freshservice support team told me my reporting needs would be added to the list of potential "future enhancements'.

Reasons for Choosing Freshservice

Our previous product did not have a customizable system and did not provide our employees with a way to track their tickets once created. It also lacked any type of reporting capabilities.

Change and Release Management have simplified and reduced the number of issues we have had as a business.One of the main benefits is the reduction in work duplication, using ticket assignation we have reduced the possibility of duplicating workloads across the teams.

Pros

Ticket Management and Change Management are the two areas i appreciate the most. Over the years we have engaged with the Fresh Service support teams and community forums to provide feedback - which has been listened to and implemented in future updates.

Cons

The alert management profiles and rules could do with an overhaul - at the moment we are having to setup multiple alert rules against a single Alert profile based on the content of the alert.Would be great to generate alert rules based on If / Or / And Statements.

We moved from an obsolete proprietary system that felt very much Web 1.0, so initially my enthusiasm was high. It went down with every struggle with many details, to which I got response from the implementation team "not possible", "not how the product is designed", "it's not possible to implement". It does it's job as a ticketing system and a KB for the support teams, but it isn't a system that you would be happy, or at least pleased, to work with.

Pros

It's relatively fresh in design, and the few things like automations (scripted actions, canned responses) are quite helpful. There is also a decent mobile app and integrations with Teams out of the box

Cons

The product overall lacks flexibility in creating workflows, mapping teams and processes; instead, it requires your processes and teams wrap around concepts in the product. It is very chatty, but usually not in relevant way - email notifications carry low signal to noise ratio, as well as Teams notifications.

Pros

Freshservice has most of the features you need. It's customisable and expensible to a point which allows for other features to be added.

Cons

Some of the UX can be frustrating. The search is very lacking and often doesn't find the results you need. The "Solutions" feature for knowledge management is quite basic and can be frustrating to use.
