Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use the ticketing system primarily, which is very easy to use for all users."
"It's very handy and very easy to use."
"The solution is very responsive with a 97% success rate in funneling customer tickets."
"The workflow and the change management process are valuable."
"We really like the Freshchat widget that allows people to engage with our FAQs on any kind of webpage or web property."
"It allowed the development team to concentrate on the client’s requirements instead."
"Depending on the size of your organization, is pretty standard and useful."
"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."
"Zoho Sprints is stable with minimal downtime."
"Zoho Sprints can be integrated with other Zoho products, providing additional functionality."
"Zoho Sprints is a defect-logging tool."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
 

Cons

"I experienced some delay in response time for non-function critical queries."
"It's hard to interact directly with the users themselves."
"The round robin ticketing feature that they have is not ideal."
"Freshservice's technical support has issues with delays and translations."
"I think it would be great if the tool had another version that is more customizable. From what I remember, there were some limitations regarding the number of assets you could track. In a more robust version, the number of assets increases, but I think it would be better to have something more customizable for all versions, especially the most robust version. This would be great for larger customers."
"Not integrated with Google."
"The analytics could be better."
"There is room for improvement in reporting for project management."
"The interface of Zoho Sprints is an area with certain shortcomings."
"There is a need to improve the charts and velocity calculations in Zoho Sprints."
"Zoho Sprints is a confusing tool, and you need to get used to it."
"There is a need to improve the charts and velocity calculations in Zoho Sprints."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Freshservice could improve, it is expensive."
"It is good for the price you pay. It has different plans. If you need all features, you need to go for a higher plan. Currently, with the second tier plan, you cannot completely separate the group of agents. So, the agent in each group can see another person's ticket. You also cannot modify the rules based on the viewable, readable stuff and cannot have a custom role in this plan. If you want to do that, you have to go for a higher plan. It works in our case because it doesn't matter if the other group can see our ticket because it doesn't contain anything sensitive. We also didn't need the project or change management features. That's why we didn't go with a higher plan."
"Freshservice is a fairly cheap solution. Though monthly payments can be made towards the licensing costs of the solution, my company prefers to make annual payments."
"The pricing information is on their website. It's my understanding that their Pro Plan, for example, is around $89/month."
"There are some additional costs but not that many. For example, we have unlimited assets, which is something for which we pay extra. We also paid for additional orchestration. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing. They are right in the middle."
"Its price is great. Its pricing is supposedly a lot less than ServiceNow and other alternatives."
"I can't recall exactly how much we pay, but it is somewhere in the middle compared to the rest of the market. The more we purchase, the cheaper it becomes, and I think the solution offers good value for money."
"Freshservice's licensing costs are pretty good, and it has different categories of pricing based on what modules and features you choose, which gives a lot of flexibility."
"Zoho Sprints is a more cost-effective solution than Jira."
"The price of Zoho Sprints is between 10 to 25 USD per user per month."
