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

“Alert routing, escalation policies, and notifications are reliable, helping teams respond quickly to production issues.”
HV

Hrithik V.

Software Engineer - Trading Systems

“In day-to-day use it helps ensure alerts are routed correctly and provides clear visibility into incident response.”
HV

Hrithik V.

Software Engineer - Trading Systems

“Managing large numbers of services and escalation policies can become complex over time.”
HV

Hrithik V.

Software Engineer - Trading Systems

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

“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

“The text editor can sometimes feel clunky or inconsistent when trying to align images, adjust fonts, or maintain clean styling across different articles.”
JK

Justin K.

Director Of Support and Data Center Operations

Cons

“Also it needs some necessary features that for any reason people are requesting from years ago and they still not working on them like the ability to leave empty on-call schedules (due to bank holidays or vacation)”
MF

Marcos F.

SRE Team Lead

“The only issue I've found is that sometime the push notifications to the mobile App can be slower than emails.”
JV

Jacob V.

Systems Administrator

“Integrations can be tough and confusing to make happen is the one big gripe I have with PagerDuty, some times it feels like there isnt a single standard.”
