"Neat & elegant platform, with improvements being added continuously"
What do you like best about Freshdesk Contact Center?

The ease of configuration - I was able to get the basic stuff set up and running in less than a day. Special mention to the Reports module.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk Contact Center?

The UI for the Admin configurations is clunky (Adding users, editing call flows, etc.). I got used to how it works, but it's definitely something that can improve. Not being able to create a ticket on Freshdesk from within Freshcaller.

What problems is Freshdesk Contact Center solving and how is that benefiting you?

Attending calls has become easier & more comfortable. The native integration with Freshdesk & Freshsales was critical for us (even though there are a few snags, which I'm sure will be resolved). Getting actionable insights is a breeze with the robust reports module.

"New User - loving this product"
What do you like best about Freshdesk Contact Center?

I have worked in a few call centers and Freshcaller has tons of analytics available at your fingertips. Being able to see how your day is progressing and allowing for easier future planning, it does make it easier to help manage the way that the center will handle incoming calls.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk Contact Center?

One of the only things that i do not like is the limitation of being able to use extensions. While this can be easily managed and is only a minor annoyance, it would certainly be a truly all in one system.

What problems is Freshdesk Contact Center solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are looking at a way to incorporate tickets into our system during off hours and also allow people the option to stay in a queue instead of going directly to voicemail as it was previously set in our old telephone systems.

Love the simplicity .. we have used this system for conference calls of agents that are all over the country. very easy to download and join calls

What do you dislike about Freshdesk Contact Center?

few of our callers on the last call had some trouble joining the call, but it seems like it was more of a user error than a system error.

"Best ever thing used for contact support. The wisest feature of fresh works !!!"
What do you like best about Freshdesk Contact Center?

The best thing like about freshcaller is that it has all the thing son same desk. A beautiful dashboard and fantastic thing to use with customers. This product I like the most and many features are like wow.. for me and my company. Go ahead if you are searching for the best quality things and features on single desk.

One dislike is there. It is available in few countries they should increase their area and countries. Nothing personal but really other features just touched my heart.

"Awesome phone contact solution"
What do you like best about Freshdesk Contact Center?

Freshcaller allows you to set from a simple contact channel for your clients, to a complex and smart whole contact center for your team, units and their customers. Has a very friendly and beautiful UI as well. Is a quite simple solution to set up in a few minutes, that's what differences it most from the competition.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk Contact Center?

It should have better mobile improvements, we crave for a whatsapp integration. Maybe add SMSs features might should be considered

What problems is Freshdesk Contact Center solving and how is that benefiting you?

Smart interactions with the customers, access records of calls, raising helpdesk tickets in a way more efficient way

"Great VoIP Software for companies using FreshDesk or FreshSales"
What do you like best about Freshdesk Contact Center?

Integrates well with the FreshWorks 365 platform. Great support, they respond very quickly. Ease of use. Mobile app works great.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk Contact Center?

SMS is not available but is planned. Without SMS functionality, we are required to 2 phone numbers for people to call AND text us in FreshSales. No dialer functionality (yet). Interface for managing agents and numbers could be better streamlined.

What problems is Freshdesk Contact Center solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having a connected dialer versus a 3rd party option allows me to connect with customer support teams that know our other products in the FreshWorks ecosystem.

"Great way to automate phone calls around my team"
What do you like best about Freshdesk Contact Center?

How easy it is to get a physical phone number. Mainly in countries with less restrictions such as USA.

What do you dislike about Freshdesk Contact Center?

The integration with Freshdesk needs more work. Contacts are not currently shared without extra integration. I believe someone using as a standalone product will find it is simpler and easier to manage.

What problems is Freshdesk Contact Center solving and how is that benefiting you?

My problem is supporting customers globally and filtering to the correct technicians based on skill and time zone. I hadn't realized the level of flexibility for filtering/call diversion available.
