Automation and AI have transformed our service delivery and have made IT support faster and more efficient
I always keep up with Freshservice's roadmaps and new features. Freshservice has been very good at listening to feedback and adding those feature requests into their next iterations. I wish they would offer more granular data export options for utilizing in Power BI, along with predictive analytics for capacity planning and SLA breaches to enable more proactive support management and reduce firefighting. While the dashboards are effective, some users find custom reporting limited compared to ServiceNow or Jira. I would also appreciate deeper integrations, especially for niche apps requiring development coding work to enable advanced orchestration. Native integrations for DevOps pipelines such as GitHub Actions and Jenkins, along with stronger API flexibility for complex workflows, would enhance functionality. Although the CMDB and asset management are solid, they do lack advanced dependency mapping compared to other enterprise tools. My wishlist includes automated impact analysis for changes and improved visualization of asset relationships, enabling quicker resolutions from an agent's perspective when alerts come in. I acknowledge that Device42 may enhance this, but it is an extra cost beyond what we already pay. While Freddy AI is excellent for triage and suggestions, some users desire more proactive automation, such as predictive ticket routing based on historical patterns and AI-driven capacity forecasting. Lastly, the pricing tiers might seem rigid for mid-sized teams, so a more granular add-on option for features such as Device42 or pay-per-use for orchestration workflows could be beneficial.

Offers multi-tenancy architecture, both in terms of functionality and reporting, requires minimal configuration and no-code deployment
We're still biased towards our previous, more mature product. 4me still needs to reach that level of maturity. However, for most users, the product will do what they need. It's only when you have mature service management processes and need deeper integrations at the process level that you might encounter some limitations. But for less mature needs, 4me works well.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution’s timely automated triggers increase our IT team’s productivity."
"It's very handy and very easy to use."
"The most valuable features of Freshservice are the notifications, customization, and flexibility."
"It has reduced the time to look up who is responsible for a service, and it has reduced the time to finalize a service request because it now goes directly to the person who is responsible for the service in that location. So, a service request is handled quickly and directly by the person responsible for it."
"We find its ability to track what's going on with each request very valuable. We are also able to merge ticket requests and assign them to different groups in the company. We have another department that uses the same system."
"It is a stable solution. My company hasn't faced any problems with the solution."
"Depending on the size of your organization, is pretty standard and useful."
"We use the ticketing system primarily, which is very easy to use for all users."
"It offers a comprehensive set of features without requiring additional payments for each feature."
"The solution is highly stable."
"The multi-tenancy architecture, both in terms of functionality and reporting, is the best feature. It is a really well-thought, designed, and developed part of this product."
"I like their request management as well as their project management."
 

Cons

"I think it would be great if the tool had another version that is more customizable. From what I remember, there were some limitations regarding the number of assets you could track. In a more robust version, the number of assets increases, but I think it would be better to have something more customizable for all versions, especially the most robust version. This would be great for larger customers."
"The reporting and management information (MI) are very limited, and stopped realistic and timely reporting on outstanding incidents."
"I would suggest that Freshservice enhance its technical capabilities, particularly when it comes to ICT network discovery."
"It's hard to interact directly with the users themselves."
"Asset management can definitely be improved because it doesn't pick up every single device on the network or every single piece of information."
"There is a need for improvement in terms of automatic escalation to the next level if an issue is not resolved. It should optimize and allow customization. Additionally, asset management needs improvement."
"I experienced some delay in response time for non-function critical queries."
"A chat bot needs to be added to the portal."
"Asset Discovery is a feature that should be added."
"One area where I believe there's room for improvement in the 4me system is the absence of an asset discovery tool."
"We would like to be able to customize and brand the solution, or at least the majority of its features and dashboards, particularly those that will be used by a large number of people."
"We're still biased towards our previous, more mature product. 4me still needs to reach that level of maturity."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was a middle tier. It wasn't an expensive one. It was a tier model usage. Licensing costs varied between admin users and regular users."
"The solution may be around 20,000 euros a year."
"I can't recall exactly how much we pay, but it is somewhere in the middle compared to the rest of the market. The more we purchase, the cheaper it becomes, and I think the solution offers good value for money."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"It is $34 per license, per agent. Currently, we don't see any add-ons at extra fees."
"Freshservice is a fairly cheap solution. Though monthly payments can be made towards the licensing costs of the solution, my company prefers to make annual payments."
"Its price is great. Its pricing is supposedly a lot less than ServiceNow and other alternatives."
"Compared to other tools, Freshservice is affordable."
"This pricing falls on the lower end of the spectrum, making it a cost-effective option."
"The licensing costs on the website are about $60 for pay-as-you-go. And then it decreases based on volume discounts or something."
"The pricing is expensive."
"It is the most affordable because it is priced per month per user."
