We primarily use this system as our IT support ticketing system. The process of getting set up was manageable, and their customer service has been fantastic. Even though we'd like to see more individualization in the HR/IT onboarding requests we've developed, we've already done a lot of the groundwork. We had previously invested in Asset Management but have now abandoned it. You get out of the knowledge base what you put into it in terms of content updates and documentation.
Pros
Super simple for both IT managers and regular employees to learn and utilize. According on your membership plan, you have access to a wide variety of optional add-ons for your control panel. Extremely flexible, albeit occasionally annoying limitations surface.
Cons
In comparison to the things it provides, Freshservice's price tag is a touch steep, and the company's support team has occasionally experienced technical difficulties that have slowed its response times.

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.

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

Over the course of a couple of years, we struggled to find the right ITSM solution that keeps it friendly for our end users to report issues while providing powerful tools for administrators to be ahead of the curve. FreshService brought a lot more than ITSM to the table. FreshService brings features for IT Operations, such as Service monitoring or alerts, to Asset management that integrates with our MDM solution—making the switch to FreshService has been easy, and adopting new best practices to provide an even better experience overall.
Pros
The biggest pro that FreshService brings to our organization is having a single pane of glass for all the information I need. From keeping track of incoming tickets into the system to monitoring important assets, FreshService has made it easy and simple to move into the product.
Cons
I feel that if I name any feature here that I don't like, the next month, they will have an update to make it better. That being said, because they are fast moving forward, that can interfere with workflows or automation you have in place since they introduce new ways to do "X Y Z," but it retires "A B C" in the process.

Overall Freshservice does the job that we needed but not allowing us to use the latest features effectively. As the use cases differ from company to company this should be taken into consideration and have a 1 to 1 meeting to help users use the latest features effectively.
Pros
1. Ticket Handling is Simple, effortless and straight forward.2. Automation of tasks can be done easily.3. Contract Management helping us a lot in digitalizing.4. Asset management and tracking is very helpful as we used to excel previously. 5. Build in Knowledge base help us prepare and save documents and procedures for repeated issues.6. SLA Management help us in providing better service to customers
Cons
1. Customer service can be improved. Almost every time when i reach service with an issue, i get an answer that its not possible.2. No options to submit a feature request, Customer service is refusing to take a request.3. Some of the features like Team integration are not usable with the Customer service ID, that feature will help many customers.4. account managers take a lot of time to respond and they dont talk directly they redirect you to customer service without even discussing about the problem.

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.

User-friendly and Organized
Reviewed on 2024/09/03
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.

Create the support system that fits your organization!
Reviewed on 2023/05/01
Pros
Freshservice is a wonderful service management product! We use it for handling all our tickets and service requests. It differentiates between incidents and service requests so you can create a whole catalogue of hardware/software items that users can request. You can add approval requirements to these service requests and can create custom workflows to automate certain processes for incidents and requests.
Cons
The Project Managment module is a little underwhelming. Feels a little underdeveloped and the visual interface and functionality fells somewhat lacking. We use the Kanban method of project management and Freshservice doesn't give us the ability to manage projects using that method. It uses lists and gantt charts. However, and a service desk management tool it is great!
