Known for its constant product innovations, Freshdesk provides the most comprehensive multichannel customer support product available in the market today. In 2012, Freshdesk "gamified" its product, allowing customer support agents to compete with each other for points and badges by providing stellar support. In 2013, Freshdesk launched a Facebook application that allows companies to respond to customer feedback directly on the social media site, but in a controlled environment. In addition, the application allows for increased customer engagement by drawing them into a larger community. Earlier this month, the company launched Freshfone, a complete voice telephony system that allows agents to answer customer calls right from their workstations, forward them to other agents and even pick up calls from their mobile phones.

"Freshdesk helped us improve our productivity and improve our customer satisfaction. We tried several other helpdesk systems but Freshdesk had the best features to price ratio; and their support team is great!", added Karim Khouider, Co-Founder & CEO at Direct Optic. DirectOptic, a happy customer of Freshdesk since September 2011, is the largest online optician in France.
