   Does what it says on the box

   Freshdesk provides a free helpdesk system so we can manage our support tickets. They have the feature that allows us to send emails through our own email address (vs using their own email address), and an app that works well to respond and organize tickets.

   My biggest gripe with the service is that they are missing a feature that HelpScout has, where we can reply directly to the notification email and that reply gets sent to the customer. With freshdesk, we have to log into their portal or use the app in order to send a reply.

   🏁 Competitors: HelpScout, Zendesk

   👍 Pros:    Straightforward|Free basic plan

   👎 Cons:    Missing a feature

• GPT-Powered chatbot over the phone - Try it, and see how it was built

  Amazon Connect is a powerful solution that lets us set up a phone number, build contact flows, support call centre agents, and everything in-between.

  One of my contracts im working on at the moment is creating an entire call centre automatically with https://aws.amazon.com/connect/ - imagine how many people used to be involved in running a WHOLE call centre.

• Moog support?

  When I click on it and try to view my ticket it asks me to log in, but then tells me my email and password are incorrect, I can log into Moog music just fine....and NOT freshdesk.com. Source: 5 months ago

• CMS with ticketing support

  What I suggest is using freshdesk.com. It's free for some of the base needs such as automatically creating ticket when people email as support email, giving clients a portal to fill out what you want them to fill out which creates a ticket, automatically notifies people on your team (up to 10) and allows you to create departments and emails them when a ticket is assigned to that department, reply via email allows...

• Beware, read carefully and make conclusions

  Since Freewallet is a quite small company they outsource their "support" from this Indian startup the communication is quite complicated. If the company doesn't want to spend more money in order to hire a good support engineer, and instead prefers to save some money by going offshore. Then this companies' customers swill suffer.
