AI summary is a great feature. Apart from that its a quite basic version of a helpdesk to be honest
I mean the helpdesk need quite a bit of updates to be suitable for a multi-brand environment. We use tags to seperate departments because the groups are being used for different brands. So there is no other option to seperate departments. Development launches from helpdesk side seem quite slow as well. Cannot change design of contact forms as well to fit different website styles.
Dear Tristan, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We’re happy to read that you’re enjoying the AI summary feature—it's great to know it's helping your team. We truly appreciate your candid input on the areas where HelpDesk could improve, especially in the context of a multi-brand environment. Your suggestions about department separation and contact form design are invaluable,...

Very good, support easy to work with and the plans are reasonably priced
It's easy to use and not too hard to integrate with websites. The UX/UI is important.
The custom support email section is hard to understand and still not sure if set up correctly, or if there are any additional steps to take

Super useful tool when working in customer service
I do like the ease of functionality. It is pretty straight forward to use.
It can be kind of slow, and harder to train people on.

We use helpdesk for tickets, verification codes and sales tracking. I am impressed with its features.
I like the way it’s easy to use, the layout of it and the functionality both plans offer
I dislike the introduction of the new plan rather suddenly, taking away features of the team plan.

Even though in our business model we don't deal with as many clients as say a manufacturing company, it is still important to solve clients' inquiries on time. Being a small company, without the integrations and the efficient management, that wouldn't be possible.
The feature I like the most that influenced me to choose HelpDesk is the ability to integrate it with a plethora of different platforms and automate a lot of processes. At this stage of growing our company, we are focused on streamlining our workflow and optimizing the usage of the resources we have.
I don't think there are many things they got wrong. We had some glitches and slowdowns on certain occasions. Also, I think a sound notification when a new message arrives could be helpful.
Hello Adam! Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughtful feedback on HelpDesk. We're thrilled to hear that our platform’s integration capabilities and process automation have been instrumental in helping you streamline your workflow and optimize your resources. It's great to know that our platform has contributed to your ability to manage client inquiries efficiently, especially as a small company. Your insights are incredibly important to us. Thank you again for your support. All the best, HelpDesk Team

We are happy with the Livechat, it has given our customers a way to ask us immediate questions and us be able to support them in real time vs an email contact system
We like the easy integration and ability to show the live chat on the pages we pick, rather than all. Short cuts are a great time saver as we get multiple queries for support so we can send them off
We don't have many issues with software, just the people on the other end :)

Love it, any down time is now spent generating sales.
The simple fact that customers can come and file any questions, comments or updates in a single organized application is huge. No more missed voicemails and missed sales.
I wish there was a way to automatically group new tickets that should be part of the same thread. I've noticed out less tech savvy customers will 'reply' to a ticket by creating a new ticket, every time. If there was a way to automatically re-attach the new thread to existing ticket would be amazing.

Everything is suitable and in the end of the day does the job
Great to have a form for customer to fill which was easy to implement in the website and to start gather tickets
We needed different inputs to a form and we were unable to create custom inputs or text box to gather more specific information from customer, for example remote software login details or warranty number. Also we lack of analysis data, we cant know which our selling products receive most tickets.
Hello! We appreciate your feedback.

Overall my experience has been fantastic. Helpdesk has helped our employees in different location come together to support customers quickly and easily.
From integration to customer support, Helpdesk was in fact the most helpful asset to provide our customers and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.
There could always be more customizations on things like widget format and email format, but generally speaking everything is great.

We love it. We use HelpDesk, LiveChat, and ChatBot
We love the ability to quickly process support and/or member-facing requests through the website or the App.
N/A - Support isn't available live since we are on the west coast of the United States and y'all are in Poland. Even though we have to submit tickets, support has been very quick and collaborative

We definitely use the ticketing every day and it is easy enough to use. Now that the pricing schema has changed, we are much less happy because we have to pay for LiveChat which we only use as user interface on the website and the HelpDesk pricing is slightly too high in our view.
The integration was pretty easy, and the reliability is great, we never had one failure in 3+ years of using it. The support team is great and reacts almost immediately.
- Lack of a proper mobile app- when used in a mobile browser, almost impossible to use- no plugin for WordPress- we have to use LiveChat as well although we don't want it, as it has a WordPress plugin and HelpDesk does not. So we have to manage two environments.

Customer Support was hard to get a hold of through Shopify App and took over a week to get help and then was told I cannot use my HelpDesk on Shopify I would have to start over with a new account.
Features, layout, tags, spam blocking, email signature in outgoing emails, domain verification for outgoing emails so it has our email address
You can not integrate with Shopify unless you start a whole new account with a different domain and email then you have to start all over from scratch. Very disappointed as I have an integration with LiveChat but HelpDesk is separate for some reason in Shopify and they are the same company.

Our main goal is not to have customer support but we know that's nearly impossible. We integrated the API with our SAAS and users can request customer support in a matter of 2 clicks.
It is very easy to integrate with any kind of product. Users in our SAAS can now in a matter of 2 clicks give us feedback or request some customer support.
None, I really love how easy was to set up with out SAAS

We purchased this program to help us with ticket management, as we were handling our customer service tickets through regular email. This system does allow us to do that. However, the system is not customizable, and it is very cumbersome and clunky. I would definitely not recommend this system to anyone else.
-- Provides an easier way to manage requests that come into our business than through regular email. -- Gives an option for writing internal notes so that agents can make private comments to one another inside tickets for background -- Keeps all our support requests in one location so they are easier to find and manage than regular email
-- Templates / emails cannot be customized without knowledge of HTML -- Poor customer service -- we have submitted tickets as well as chatted with CS on issues that required further investigation on their end. They have told us each time they would get back to us, but they never have. If they can't resolve the issue right at that moment, we never hear from them again. -- Our automated responses that we have set up to trigger when someone submits a ticket go our to every agent, every single time someone submits a ticket. Very annoying. The automated responses also become part of the ticket thread, which makes the threads long and cumbersome. We have asked them to please shut this off, and have been told they cannot do that.
Hi Lianne, Here's Weronika from HelpDesk. Thank you for your honest review. I've read it carefully and would like you to know that it's crucial to make HelpDesk usable and meet your needs. Email templates indeed require HTML knowledge, but luckily you can always use our default template. It's ready to implement and will make your messages look professional. I'm sorry we left your message unanswered....

HelpDesk is very easy to set up and start using. I find it especially helpful for some of our non-technical co-workers, compared to other support software we've used which required some extensive instructions to help onboarding coworkers.
Certain actions can only be done using the multiple select checkbox, for example closing a single ticket either requires you to go into the ticket and update the status, or use the multiple select checkbox to close a ticket. The spam filter is also quite annoying, while it does block a lot of spam emails, we've missed quite a few non-spam tickets, resulting in upset clients.

Overall Helpdesk has been great for me to begin using a ticket system. Before we where using Helpdesk it was difficult for my team to keep track of which problems were solved and who was responsible for them, but now my agents always know what they are responsible for and they are able to see each ticket though to completion.
Helpdesk is very easy to get started with and is extremely affordable compared to other options. It was very easy for me to already use our existing Helpdesk email address and give my agents a way to track their tickets. The software is very easy for my agents to understand and it is great that they can access it online anywhere.
I would like to see an option for omnichannel so we can respond to customers in the medium they use to first reach out rather than always have to redirect to our support email.

We've used Salesforce Service Cloud, Zendesk, Groove and a slew of others. The team at Helpdesk has built a functionally rich solution that doesn't require a degree to understand how to operate. We're able to manage tickets in a clean and visually minimal environment and get information without needing to execute multiple clicks. Definitely recommend this solution for teams of all sizes.
Super easy to get up and running and start managing customer support inquiries. The support team at HelpDesk is very attentive in addressing any questions.
Tighter integration with LiveChat when we selected the software would have been great, but that has since been rolled out.

Todas las solicitudes, dudas y comunicaciones están en un solo lugar y son más fáciles de encontrar y administrar. Puedes en el futuro revisar respuestas y tener un repositorio de incidencias y soluciones. Mucho más efectivo que el correo para que todo el equipo tenga a mano la información.
Echo en falta algunas opciones más avanzadas que ofrecen otras soluciones de Helpdesk, aunque estoy aún probándola y en general no me disgusta en absoluto
