Automation has contributed significantly, resulting in reduced resource counts, which equates to savings in money and time.

Ashok R

Technical support manager at a tech vendor with 201-500 employees

With using Freshservice, only two technicians are needed per one shift, but without Freshservice, for the same company size, we need about four technicians per shift, so it saved money and time.

Sentiment score

6.6

Campfire Interactive's support is praised for accessibility, though enhancements face delays due to limited workforce capacity.

When they secure many new contracts, the staff can be stretched thin to meet deadlines.

Bianca Gaida

Global Manager of Sales Excellence at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

Overall, their support is good to excellent, but if the issue is a little more complex, it can take a little longer.

Sentiment score

5.2

Campfire Interactive scales well with effective integrations, though flexibility and financial constraints can hinder standalone growth and expansion.

Sentiment score

7.3

Freshservice scales efficiently with added licenses, supporting growth with cloud benefits, though customization and costs may limit larger enterprises.

I don't have any concerns about scaling up for that. The concerns are more about implementation than scalability.

Tom Beach

In terms of scalability, Campfire Interactive rates as either a nine out of ten.

reviewer2715126

Director of Sales at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees

Sentiment score

6.9

Campfire Interactive is generally stable, with minimal downtime, but suffers from integration bugs and occasional performance issues globally.

Sentiment score

8.2

Freshservice offers stable performance with minimal downtime, few issues, and reliable cloud hosting on AWS, ensuring consistent uptime.

When it slows down so much, we've had to have Campfire Interactive shut down the system and restart it.

Sarah_Jones

Information Technology Manager at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

If there is something that they feel is a bug or needs a fix that needs to be pushed through, we're able to work with them effectively to schedule those things and not be disruptive to the business.

Tom Beach

Room For Improvement

Campfire Interactive needs enhancements in reporting, integration, user interface, service communication, and pricing clarity for improved functionality.

Freshservice users seek improvements in reporting, automation, integrations, and customizations to enhance usability and effectiveness for larger enterprises.

Currently, if we receive a quotation for 20 parts, we can enter one opportunity in our homegrown system that allows us to list all 20 parts within that single opportunity, but Campfire Interactive requires creating separate opportunities for each part.

reviewer2715126

Director of Sales at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees

They are looking into AI to make longer projections possible and to also improve the quality of the data that we have in the system to calculate this LOP based on historical data or IHS information.

Bianca Gaida

Global Manager of Sales Excellence at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

The issues are more related to technical service, specifically when we have an issue or problem with the tool, the communication gap, and the follow-through on issues that need improvement.

There's limited experience with the CMDB or asset management features.

reviewer9072573

IT Technician at a retailer with 1,001-5,000 employees

Asset management can definitely be improved because it doesn't pick up every single device on the network or every single piece of information.

reviewer1959714

IT & Operations Manager at a financial services firm with 51-200 employees

Reporting is useful, but the customization is still restricted, and it would be great to build more detailed reports that combine multiple data sources, especially for cloud-related operations.

Setup Cost

Campfire Interactive's pricing is high but negotiable, prompting some clients to consider internal alternatives, especially during organizational changes.

Freshservice offers flexible, competitive pricing with tiered plans, varying costs, and value without hidden fees.

We had a one-time fee and now I think they are on a subscription model.

Kristin Schutter

Forecasting Manager at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

They were asking for a certain percentage increase, and we said that was not acceptable. They were willing to settle on a different number.

Tom Beach

Market Intelligence & Sales Forecasting at RESRG Automotive

Campfire Interactive is on the expensive side, with approximately $100,000 to $120,000 in expenses.

Freshservice enhances IT operations with user-friendly features, seamless integrations, automation, and efficient asset management, boosting productivity and SLA compliance.

Since it's actually in a system and not being maintained in a spreadsheet, it has improved both time and accuracy.

Sarah_Jones

Information Technology Manager at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

Now everybody is using one set of numbers, and this has helped us improve our revenue forecasting projections by 50%.

Franco DAlimonte

Director, Business Systems at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

What makes Campfire Interactive's sales forecasting feature stand out for me is that it is browser-based, making it a unified program solution for forecasting, viewing actuals, analyzing short-term trends, and using that information to create long-term strategies.

Works very well for opportunity management and sales forecasting for the automotive industry

I've had recent discussions with the leadership team at Campfire Interactive about several issues. They're fully aware of my displeasure with certain things. Some concerns are not related to the tool itself, although there are some aspects that could be better with the tool. The issues are more related to technical service, specifically when we have an issue or problem with the tool, the communication gap, and the follow-through on issues that need improvement. They're fully aware of that concern, and they're doing things to address it. From a technical standpoint, there are some limitations within the tool that are somewhat out of Campfire Interactive's control because it's a complicated industry to try and have one solution that fits all vendors. There are times when we go to execute reports from their system, and the data does not generate as expected. When that happens, we have to inform the Campfire Interactive IT or Support group what the failure is. They have to research and come back to us. In the meantime, we have 2, 4, 6, maybe 12 hours of downtime where people around the world are trying to use the system. Though it affects less than 50 people, these instances are frustrating.

Automation and AI have transformed our service delivery and have made IT support faster and more efficient

I always keep up with Freshservice's roadmaps and new features. Freshservice has been very good at listening to feedback and adding those feature requests into their next iterations. I wish they would offer more granular data export options for utilizing in Power BI, along with predictive analytics for capacity planning and SLA breaches to enable more proactive support management and reduce firefighting. While the dashboards are effective, some users find custom reporting limited compared to ServiceNow or Jira. I would also appreciate deeper integrations, especially for niche apps requiring development coding work to enable advanced orchestration. Native integrations for DevOps pipelines such as GitHub Actions and Jenkins, along with stronger API flexibility for complex workflows, would enhance functionality. Although the CMDB and asset management are solid, they do lack advanced dependency mapping compared to other enterprise tools. My wishlist includes automated impact analysis for changes and improved visualization of asset relationships, enabling quicker resolutions from an agent's perspective when alerts come in. I acknowledge that Device42 may enhance this, but it is an extra cost beyond what we already pay. While Freddy AI is excellent for triage and suggestions, some users desire more proactive automation, such as predictive ticket routing based on historical patterns and AI-driven capacity forecasting. Lastly, the pricing tiers might seem rigid for mid-sized teams, so a more granular add-on option for features such as Device42 or pay-per-use for orchestration workflows could be beneficial.
