By default, Freshdesk logo and favicon will be reflected on the helpdesk portal. You can rebrand these by updating your brand’s logo and favicon.

While groups are a great way to categorize teams, there might be different responsibilities within each team. For example, your billing team might have different agents to handle refund and payment failure issues, respectively. Here’s where you can use tags to classify the tickets so that agents can find the issue type at a glance.
Ticket creation rules empower you to create rules on incoming tickets and thus automate your support workflow. For example, you can set a rule that every incoming email ticket with the word ‘problem’ has to be replied with ‘received’. This way, you can use Freshdesk to set various conditions and minimize the repetitive tasks that affect agent productivity.
Typing out the same response, over and over again, affects your productivity. With Freshdesk, you can overcome this problem using canned responses. You can create any number of reply templates for various situations and categorize them into folders. Whenever a repetitive issue comes up, all you need to do is click the canned response icon and attach a suitable response. You can also find the required template or article with the help of keyboard using quick actions.
A complex issue will require multiple teams to work together. Adding private notes to the ticket lets you highlight complications to concerned agents or teams, as and when they arise. Similarly, you can add public notes if you want to inform the customer.
Getting the context of an issue gets difficult especially when the ticket is moved between different teams. A briefing is required every time the ticket goes to another team thereby leading to endless loops. This is where ticket activities allows you to view the history of a ticket right from its creation.
Every now and then, a customer might contact you through different channels for the same issue. Or sometimes, many people might report the same issue. In both cases, a lot of tickets are created, leading to chaos. Freshdesk gives you the option to merge all these tickets in chronological order. You can add/remove tickets from the merge, include private notes, and notify the customers.
When you need the help of another agent or team to resolve an issue, you can collaborate right inside Freshdesk using Freshconnect. All you need to do is start a discussion from the ticket page you want to collaborate on. This way, the collaborator will be able to view the ticket and won’t need any briefing. You can also invite non-agent members outside your organization for collaboration. Nevertheless, your helpdesk will stay safe as they will be able to see only the ticket you’ve shared.
With Freshdesk you can maintain a to-do list right within the helpdesk. You can either add a to-do task within the ticket, which can be seen by all agents, or add it to your own dashboard. You can mark the checkbox accompanying the to-do task when it’s done.
