Pros
Interestingly, the actual Support team of Supportbench is top notch. We’ve never received such immediate and clear Support using a platform like this in the past. They definitely make us feel like valued clients.
Cons
We’ve been making a lot of use of the Surveys, but I'd love to see more customizations. It would be helpful to have a button in the email itself.

Pros
It allows us to see what is going on with all requests sent to our support DL. We stopped relying on emails
Cons
You can miss replies to already existing cases. Notifications are not good enough. Cases get insanely duplicated
Response from Supportbench Services

Pros
Has customizable dashboards that are empowered with AI integrated Chatgpt knowlegde, lots of chatbot capabilities and integrates with SalesForce and Hubspot. The general design is also very appealing.
Cons
Needs to have a step by step guide for first installation and for using the product as the customer support may not be enough for every queries.

Supportbench’s KPI scorecards are like having a bird's-eye view of our performance. And the AI, especially the ChatGPT integration, feels like having 10 extra assistants on our team.
Pros
The transformation in our customer support management has been astounding after switching from Freshdesk to Supportbench. And the personalized services we can offer our customers make us feel like we've cracked a secret code.
Cons
The initial setup was challenging as we had to rip out Freshdesk and replace with Supportbench.

Based on the features I’ve been able to use so far, Supportbench seems to be an all-encompassing and potent customer relationship tool. It’s been helping to streamline and enhance our case management team and our support operations in general.
Pros
Although it’s been early days for us, I can already see that Supportbench’s seamless communication channels and the volume of cases it handles are going to help to build our customer loyalty. We’re responding to complex cases far more quickly than before. We’re finally able to give our customers the support they need.
Cons
The setup and initial agent training took some effort. It was challenging for us to get use to a different platform, one that integrates with everything. But things are running smoothly now.

Let me tell you, Supportbench is the cat's pajamas! No need to keep the IT team on speed dial anymore - we're in the driver's seat. And with those snazzy features like AI-driven sentiment analysis and intent detection, it's like having our own customer support Sherlock Holmes!
Pros
Since we left Zendesk to welcome Supportbench, things have been smooth sailing. This nifty tool even dishes out a 360-degree customer overview. It's like we've got customer support superpowers now!
Cons
The only gripe I have is that their self-help guide feels a bit like a treasure hunt without a map. More detailed documentation would be way more useful

From my perspective, Supportbench truly shines in terms of accessibility and configurability. The fact that it doesn't necessitate an IT team to manage the system is a game-changer. The autonomous operation potential it offers allows us to focus more on our customers and less on the technicalities.
Pros
The shift from Zendesk to Supportbench has been a significant upgrade for us. The functionality has streamlined our support process, helping us enhance the quality of our service and build stronger relationships. The customizable dashboards have particularly allowed us to optimize our strategies, while the customer health scoring and 360-degree customer overview have ensured a tailored approach to each customer interaction.
Cons
The software, as much as it is impressive, does lack in one area - the documentation. I believe a more extensive user guide would make the experience smoother for newcomers. This didn't deter my overall experience but certainly left some room for improvement

I think Supportbench is a good choice for businesses without any system in place, looking to centralize all communication and tracking in one.
Pros
we lack som technical knowledge but we all adabpted quite comfortably withSupportbench. It was a much smoother transition than I expected. We didn't have anything in place, and now we have this great system helping us track everything. We use email as our main form of communication but it's great that it's omnichannel in case this changes for us.
Cons
The per agent pricing is quite reasonable for us at this moment as we paid for 2 years upfront. Hoping this rate remains consistent throughout.

With Supportbench we finally have a magnifying glass on our performance. Plus, the ChatGPT integration makes us feel like we've invited a smarty-pants AI to our office party!
Pros
Ditching Freshdesk for Supportbench was like trading in my old clunker for a flying car. Suddenly, our customer support management feels less like juggling cats and more like a well-choreographed ballet.
Cons
But let's not sugarcoat it. The initial setup was like putting together IKEA furniture blindfolded. And the reporting feature? Kind of like promising a grand feast and delivering a salad. We could really use some extra analytics and a full-on BI interface.

Our customer service needs are quite simple, we don’t need such a complicated product, but Supportbench seems to be able to handle both complex workflows and fairly simple ones. It was great that at this price point, they included chat too.
Pros
Price was a deciding factor for us as they have a full spectrum support platform with chat at a reasonable price point. So far, I haven’t noticed any lag times with chat. The customer portal is proving to be favourable for our customers. We use Supportbench at a basic level, but I can see it being more useful as we grow.
Cons
I’ve never seen an interface quite like this before and it took some getting use to.

Best system for high volume Email management

Pros
The transition from our previous system to SupportBench has been way less painful than we expected. Their data migration process is quite seamless and there wasn’t much in the way of lag time or real delays getting up and running.Their email management is key for us as most, if not all of our communication is through email and you can comfortably live in the Supportbench email as it almost exactly mimics Outlook. Also, all of our communication has much better visibility than before and we can look at cases in great detail.
Cons

Supportbench is refreshingly user friendly. It’s been a great advantage of our growing company because we’re handing more customer issues than ever before and we have far fewer complaints because we’re resolving tickets so efficiently.
Pros
With Supportbench’s Omnichannel tool set, we’re now able to provide exceptional customer service across every customer touchpoint. Handling emails, social accounts and chat are peaceful because it’s finally all professionally configured. The calendar feature makes it so easy to organize internal teams and respective tasks as well at external appointments. Also, having no queue limits or restriction on service levels has helped us designate work more effectively than ever before.

Supportbench has allowed us to more clearly see what our agents are doing and who they support. It even helps us automate replies to recurring problems and workflows, minimizing our workload.
Pros
The tools Supportbench integrates with have helped us tremendously. We’ve always had multiple tools sets working completely separately, and having one that works in unison that is fully integrated has given us oversight we’ve never had before.
Cons
The learning curve might be too steep for some people. Supportbench is new and unlike the platforms from the past. The newness of it takes time to get use to :)
