Smooth incident management and easy to use while needing better escalation management
We are using Freshservice for the IT ticketing system for business users We use the ticketing system primarily, which is very easy to use for all users. Freshservice is helpful, especially in incident management. Incident management is very helpful, and the system is straightforward, making it…

Stable, easy to install, and cost effective, but it needs better integration and data management
It needs better integration with other tools like Jira. Better reporting and better data management are also needed. I believe the way they're structured is the flat file. So it'd be better if they actually used a database for the data storage, and a more robust portal. I would like more flexible reporting.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It allows for customization and offers a broad feature set."
"Freshservice is very user-friendly and easy to customize."
"It has reduced the time to look up who is responsible for a service, and it has reduced the time to finalize a service request because it now goes directly to the person who is responsible for the service in that location. So, a service request is handled quickly and directly by the person responsible for it."
"We really like the Freshchat widget that allows people to engage with our FAQs on any kind of webpage or web property."
"The portal is straightforward for the end-user, but that's not the best part of Freshservice. Integration is the part that's interesting because it's easy to set up a process. It's extremely simple to integrate. In one week, you can add change management. It's incredible."
"The most valuable feature of Freshservice is you can assign downloaded tickets and the reports are useful."
"The admin feature is the UI, so it's very clean. The asset management and its model are valuable as well."
"It allowed the development team to concentrate on the client’s requirements instead."
"The two most valuable features are the portal and reporting."
 

Cons

"A chat bot needs to be added to the portal."
"Asset management can definitely be improved because it doesn't pick up every single device on the network or every single piece of information. Some manual information still needs to be entered."
"The round robin ticketing feature that they have is not ideal."
"The product should look at BCM or ServiceNow and see if there are features that would make nice additions. It would help them stay competitive."
"We'd like better integration with other products."
"Their analytics need improvement."
"They can improve the search. While searching the inventory, when I cancel a selected category, the search box disappears, and I have to reload the page. It is a small glitch. Currently, we can have only one plan per subscription. All users have to be on the same plan. We can't have two users for plan A and five users for plan B. It might be good if there was an option to have different plans within one subscription so that you can assign each agent to the corresponding plan."
"I am not too happy with the page layout or screen layout since it always looks messy."
"It needs better integration with other tools like Jira."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Freshservice's licensing costs are pretty good, and it has different categories of pricing based on what modules and features you choose, which gives a lot of flexibility."
"We're basically paying about $100 USD per agent per month."
"The cost at the current timing is very reasonable but as the product gains popularity, I anticipate it might become expensive. Fortunately my customers have been offered a generous discount making it more affordable for me and satisfying both my needs and customers requirement."
"One of the key benefits of Freshservice is license management. Asset management has the possibility to keep track of licenses and that's very useful. The price of the solution is very good."
"It was a middle tier. It wasn't an expensive one. It was a tier model usage. Licensing costs varied between admin users and regular users."
"The pricing information is on their website. It's my understanding that their Pro Plan, for example, is around $89/month."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"I can't recall exactly how much we pay, but it is somewhere in the middle compared to the rest of the market. The more we purchase, the cheaper it becomes, and I think the solution offers good value for money."
"The price is approximately $70 per agent, per month."
