Integrated support workflows have provided a unified view but need broader enterprise flexibility
Freshdesk's scalability could be improved for larger businesses across departments. Its intuitive interface is appealing for small to medium-sized businesses. However, when you look at larger enterprise levels, ServiceNow operates more efficiently. This scalability is an area where Freshdesk could expand its offerings. Additionally, I don't have too much hands-on experience with Freshdesk ticket routing. I need to check with the service desk team if they've used it. Similarly, for analytics capability, I haven't explored much on Freshdesk, but I have done it for ServiceNow. I have seen a lot on ServiceNow and the BMC Remedy, so I can speak better for them. I haven't had the chance to look at it so much that I can do a comparison. I haven't had much experience with Freshdesk's reporting. Within its paradigm of customer service management, Freshdesk is quite scalable. But I've said that inter-department and the interoperability is better off in ServiceNow than in Freshdesk.

Automated scheduling has reduced patient wait times and still needs smoother workflow adoption
Razor Platform offers several best features including Razor Clinic, which is a clinical management tool where AI-driven policies handle patient records and schedules for doctors who have appointments with patients, along with managing bills, pharmacies, and inventories. Another feature is Ready Path, which promotes data engagement between patients and doctors. Ready Path provides a 360-degree view of the patient's interactions and automates marketing so that patients receive SMS, emails, and notifications about their appointments. Additionally, there is a CRM for managing patient relationships. Of the features mentioned, I personally find scheduling across multiple doctors most valuable in my day-to-day work because some patients need to see multiple doctors in a day, which requires coordinating their diagnosis reports to be shared with the doctors, who then provide the right prescriptions and treatments. Assigning multiple appointments in a day for different doctors is quite important and challenging, and I feel that this is one of the best features Razor Platform offers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Freshdesk has played a huge role in allowing me to deliver solutions to my customers in a fast, timely fashion, which is why it rates high in my books."
"The organization that is possible with other departments is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"It is very easy to make reports."
"I used Freshdesk for communication with the clients, such as real-time chats."
"We're able to respond to customer inquiries much faster and with better information."
"Freshdesk provides a plain vanilla solution, making it user-friendly and less complex."
"The UI is easy to use."
"Through chats we now connect with a bigger audience and satisfaction surveys have allowed us to know clients' points of view in a better way."
"The best features Razor Platform offers is simple integrations."
"Since using Razor Platform, I have seen a reduction in patient wait times, with approximately 60% of patients experiencing shorter wait times, while approximately 40% may need to be rescheduled on busy days, but the 60% indicates significant improvement."
"Razor Platform has positively impacted my organization, allowing us to save around 4.3 million dollars in total gross due to lower risk-weighted asset charges, which reflects well on my product and project initiatives meeting objectives, resulting in a very positive outcome."
 

Cons

"We have many cases where a ticket comes in, and it ends up having multiple team members working on it. It would be really nice to be able to assign a single ticket to multiple people, rather than having to create the parent-child hierarchy that they have set up. It generates a proliferation of tickets that I really don't want to have. Having to jump from a parent to one child and then to another child makes it harder for me to be able to see the entire case from end to end. A simple example is our new hire process or our termination process. We have people who leave. We also have people who come on board. We have got multiple people participating and doing things related to the leaving or onboarding process. Currently, I have to go to different tickets to be able to see whether all tasks are really done or not. If I could assign lots of people to one ticket, it would be really nice."
"We have encountered lots of issues from observations of our QA, such as concatenated new lines displaying '=0' and differences between line spaces, and we are still waiting for resolutions for others, such as not being able to recover lost data or tickets."
"Freshdesk has got an option where Facebook and Twitter posts can be transferred into the ticketing system. At the moment, we do not find it useful because it simply cannot pick the relevant customer service enquiries, it creates a ticket with every post."
"It would be helpful to pull reports or schedule them based on agents, users, ticket numbers, or responses."
"An area for improvement in Freshdesk would be enabling all features regardless of company or user size."
"They were just constantly trying to get us to implement break fix after break fix after break fix instead of putting us on the right product in the first place. It wasted a year's time and money."
"There are a few things we have asked for, like a forward button. When a ticket comes in, we forward it, but it doesn't sync up with the forward. That is the one they have to rework. The other is when we forward the ticket, it doesn't go all, or certain things don't go with it. We have told them about it, and they are working on it. It would be better if they gave us a more standard reporting template. Although they already have some, many aren't usable. It would be easier if we had more templates to work with."
"The solution's inbound calls could be improved."
"Razor Platform could enhance the user experience as some clinics may struggle with workflow changes due to steep learning curves, which suggests a need for better adoption."
"I chose an eight because it is not fully automated; it requires human interaction to provide the feed before it can act."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Freshdesk was the best solution with the best price. It was cost efficient and included all the features that we needed."
"The best system plan is enterprise. It costs basically 79 Euros per agent per month when it's billed annually and 95 Euros per agent per month when it's billed monthly."
"We use a licensing model only so we pay for the number of agents we have configured in the system only."
"It was definitely not expensive. It was two grand or maybe three grand total for a year. It has just straight and simple standard licensing fees. There is no additional fee."
"The price could be better, but it's okay. Compared to ServiceNow and JIRA, Freshworks offers a competitive price. There are also additional licensing costs because you need Microsoft Outlook. Each new email account costs around $15 to $19."
"We pay approximately $70 per agent to use Freshdesk. We have 10 agents, which is approximately $700 or $800 per month. It is a fixed license, there are not any additional fees."
"It is costly."
"The pricing is pretty manageable and acceptable."
