Smooth incident management and easy to use while needing better escalation management
We are using Freshservice for the IT ticketing system for business users We use the ticketing system primarily, which is very easy to use for all users. Freshservice is helpful, especially in incident management. Incident management is very helpful, and the system is straightforward, making it…

Stable, easy to install, and cost effective, but it needs better integration and data management
It needs better integration with other tools like Jira. Better reporting and better data management are also needed. I believe the way they're structured is the flat file. So it'd be better if they actually used a database for the data storage, and a more robust portal. I would like more flexible reporting.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It allowed the development team to concentrate on the client’s requirements instead."
"The most valuable features of Freshservice are the notifications, customization, and flexibility."
"What I have seen in Freshservice is there's no room for customization. Which works as an advantage in some cases and it works as a disadvantage in others. If you are someone that starts managing your IT services, it is a great solution, because there's no way to go out away from the direction of the system. You have to follow the process as it was intended for the designers of a solution because there's no room for customization or configuration."
"We really like the Freshchat widget that allows people to engage with our FAQs on any kind of webpage or web property."
"It has reduced the time to look up who is responsible for a service, and it has reduced the time to finalize a service request because it now goes directly to the person who is responsible for the service in that location. So, a service request is handled quickly and directly by the person responsible for it."
"The portal is straightforward for the end-user, but that's not the best part of Freshservice. Integration is the part that's interesting because it's easy to set up a process. It's extremely simple to integrate. In one week, you can add change management. It's incredible."
"The overall functionality of the product is excellent."
"We find its ability to track what's going on with each request very valuable. We are also able to merge ticket requests and assign them to different groups in the company. We have another department that uses the same system."
"The two most valuable features are the portal and reporting."
 

Cons

"We haven't had any issues with the stability of Freshservice. However, we have had some issues with data imports, we have noticed that large amounts of data can get stuck. This is something that we haven't seen in other solutions."
"I experienced some delay in response time for non-function critical queries."
"Freshservice automation capabilities are improving the way we respond to a few customers. There is a bit of delay when we must respond to the customer."
"Asset management can definitely be improved because it doesn't pick up every single device on the network or every single piece of information."
"There is a need for improvement in terms of automatic escalation to the next level if an issue is not resolved."
"I am not too happy with the page layout or screen layout since it always looks messy."
"Freshservice's technical support has issues with delays and translations."
"We'd like better integration with other products."
"It needs better integration with other tools like Jira."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was a middle tier. It wasn't an expensive one. It was a tier model usage. Licensing costs varied between admin users and regular users."
"Our licensing fee for Freshservice is $2,500 a year."
"The price of Freshservice could improve, it is expensive."
"It is $34 per license, per agent. Currently, we don't see any add-ons at extra fees."
"I don't think it's expensive for the US or some European markets. Still, when I used Freshservice in Mexico, some customers found it a bit pricey, especially considering the platform's features. I think the pricing is fair for use in the European market, but it might be perceived differently in Latin America."
"One of the key benefits of Freshservice is license management. Asset management has the possibility to keep track of licenses and that's very useful. The price of the solution is very good."
"The solution may be around 20,000 euros a year."
"Freshservice price is competitive, it is not more than other solutions on the market."
"The price is approximately $70 per agent, per month."
