You can effortlessly scale-up and deliver the best experience to your customers.

 

Context across every touchpoint

With Freshdesk’s omnichannel timeline, you’ll never spend time asking customers to repeat themselves. Agents can see the customer journey across all channels, from the website, mobile, chat, social media, and more. With this context, agents can be more proactive, and they can help customers faster. Your customers will be amazed at how effortless their experience is. 

Instant help across all channels

With Freshdesk, self-service isn’t restricted to an FAQ section on your website. You can offer self-service for customers with varied preferences through your knowledge base, a web-widget, chat, messaging, bots, and even on the phone! Customers can help themselves regardless of how they choose to contact you. Not only will you be offering customers the option to choose their preferred channel for support, but you’ll also deflect repetitive questions that are important to answer, but that can nevertheless consume precious agent bandwidth.

Accelerate your team's efficiency 

 

Happy employees make for happy customers. With Freshdesk, frontline support agents have a tool that they love, which saves them time and reduces repetitive work. They can easily work through their tickets, switch between channels, and keep tabs on customer issues. Whether they need to help a customer over the phone, e-mail, chat, or any other channel, they have all the context they need to anticipate and resolve customer issues quickly.

Delight customers with AI and bots

Our chatbots are designed for engagement, not just deflection. Freddy AI can understand customer intent, and our bots help meet customer need with precise answers (instead of a list of confusing FAQs). Freddy AI is smart enough to guide customers through a series of helpful steps to resolve their issue,  or to know when customers are frustrated and should be transferred to a live agent. Best of all, Freshworks bots don’t require coding and you can get them set up in no time for a great omnichannel experience.
