"Great product for customer support"
What do you like best about Freshchat?

The ability to customize the chat, being able to provide some information about the agent to the customer as well typing indicators, being able to add attachments, etc.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

Unable to customize the chat window for multi-organizations. Since we're managing multiple organizations, we are unable to customize each organization's chat window and it would be great feature to be added with future releases.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

Freshdesk is making it easier for our live-chat agents to talk with customers across the different organizations we manage, all into a single place, seamlessly and without any struggle. Plus the canned responses really help a lot.

"Incredible"

The ability to access and back date queries and manage backlog. The fact that it refreshes so quickly and updates equally as fast. Also the ability to input canned responses for the ease of assisting more effectively.

It solves issues such as record keeping and that benefits us because we are able to go back and assist a customer who came in a while ago and needs feedback on a query.

"In my view, one of the especially beneficial when it comes to interface."
What do you like best about Freshchat?

Freshchat is used in many organizations where I have worked, and it is a really efficient way to use the feature because it is convenient, simple to use, and highly helpful.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

Such problems don't exist in my opinion, and it really does reduce the amount of effort. In that situation, the Intelliassign is the best alternative because it is the best option in terms of work, as I will discuss below.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

Yes, it is one of the best option one organization could have, I personally prefer the Intelli Assign the best option, in my organization we used to sufer to reach out FRT but as per using the IntelliAssign is my personal favorite.

"Very good product for management insights!"
What do you like best about Freshchat?

The most helpful for me is the analytics panel to monitor our team's performance. The second thing I like the most is the customer support. The most recent CS interaction was to help set up our chat bot-- they spent two sessions despite us being a smaller account.

What do you dislike about Freshchat?

We've been using Freshchat for years, and we love the product. However, I wish they would've been more persistent to upgrade us to the newer plan... we were on the legacy plan for 2 years before we realised which made us lose out on some helpful new features.

What problems is Freshchat solving and how is that benefiting you?

Freshchat helps us solve all of our support necessisties. Aside from the whole recent Twitter debacle with 3rd party APIs, it's been a great omnichannel communincation platform.

What do you like best about Freshchat?

Freshchat is the easiest platform to interact with customers' queries and concerns on a real-time basis, solving customers' doubts about the services we offer.

Sometimes the loading time of Freshchat will be a bit longer due to which it gets delayed to respond to the customers' queries or concerns. Also, the chat assignment will be a bit delayed if the intelliassign will be on.

Using Freshchat we are able to handle the customer's concerns on a real-time basis and respond to them with the issue they are facing during the trip where we are providing drivers.
