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

"Getting Freshdesk was like a breath of fresh air because it was simple to use and required zero or negligible training effort on the part of my team."
"The most valuable features of Freshdesk are the automation of tickets to assign them to different agents, and the managing of documents is easy."
"It generated reports for us, which helped us identify the status of requests and the aging of requests."
"We have made use of the training academy and the technical support team from Freshdesk. Both have been very good resources."
"Freshdesk provides a plain vanilla solution, making it user-friendly and less complex."
"Its simplicity is most valuable. It is easy and simple, and it requires negligible training effort. I don't spend all my time goofing around trying to find stuff in the ticketing system."
"The ticketing system is smooth, but since we use a free version, we do not have many facilities available."
"These features are easy to use, and the filtering is really good, providing a good overview of active tickets and who's working on them."
"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."
"The best features Razor Platform offers is simple integrations."
"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

"It should enhance its service and its reporting capabilities."
"While it's good for a small number of tickets, definitely in the future, we will require something more powerful."
"Freshdesk I do not like as much. It's much more time-consuming; it's much more complicated."
"I would like to see a little bit more color in the solution."
"I face problems with stability sometimes while using Freshdesk. It's a server issue."
"I would like on-the-go translation,"
"With the advancements in AI now, I will say Freshdesk should consider integrating more AI, but so far, I am satisfied with every single feature."
"An area for improvement in Freshdesk would be enabling all features regardless of company or user size."
"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

"It is costly."
"We use a licensing model only so we pay for the number of agents we have configured in the system only."
"Freshdesk was the best solution with the best price. It was cost efficient and included all the features that we needed."
"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."
"We use a combination of Freshdesk, Freshservice, and Freshchat. We use the whole suite. Weirdly enough, we pay more for Freshdesk than we do for Freshservice. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing. You can get different bundles, and you can always move to different plans that are standard. Freshservice can go anywhere from $19 up to $120 per agent, per month. There is such a wide range, and it is very customizable to your needs."
"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 pricing is pretty manageable and acceptable."
"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."
