Pros

“The biggest value for us has been the flexibility of the ticketing system, the reporting capabilities, and the ability to centralize multiple operational functions into one platform.”
EG

Erin G.

Director of IT

“It provides a solid set of features that support IT service management and helps streamline operations. While there is still room to improve our understanding of all its capabilities, it has been an effective tool in supporting our day-to-day processes”
MN

Marcela N.

Service Analatycx

“We use Freshservice not only for incident and service request management but also for workflow automation and integrations with Active Directory and other internal systems.”
DB

Denis B.

IT Service Manager

Pros

“I love the ability to create shortcuts for ticket entry, setup my flows, add watchers to the tickets by just the type of ticket.”
Dg

David g.

“Really wish something could be implemented however for dark mode users with copy paste between bossdesk, outlook, edge etc. ”
JM

Joe M.

IT Support Specialist II

“Workflows and ticket management were the deciding factors in choosing BOSSDesk — every workflow scenario we asked about turned out to be possible.”
CS

Cali S.

System Administrator

Cons

“We’ve also experienced issues with integrations and workflows, including Slack form auto-fill problems, limited SLA dashboard widgets, and bugs within the onboarding journey process that have slowed adoption.”
EG

Erin G.

Director of IT

“I've tried using it to draft responses to more detailed engineering questions, and it tends to oversimplify or miss context, so I end up rewriting most of it anyway, fine for routine stuff, not something I'd trust blind.”
BM

Bheru M.

Software Engineer

“The CMDB functionality had several issues, and the overall Freshservice UI can be difficult to navigate. While the ticketing features are simple and user-friendly, other modules do not feel as intuitive or streamlined.”
RA

Rajesh A.

Project manager

Cons

“I've also seen users mention that customizing workflows, reports, and dashboards can be more complicated than expected, especially without prior experience.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Gibril B.

ICT Help Desk

“the search function. When searching for a particular ticket we sometimes have issues finding them.”
SW

Steve W.

I.T. Director

“pricing was a little high; some updates needed more updates and resulted int some downtime or lag :)”
