Hi

I’m a Freshdesk ‘newbie’. We are using the platform as a helpdesk to manage some contract creation with our various clients. It’s useful to keep the audit trail of all the dialogue, search for past work etc.

 

My question is actually simple. I have set up freshdesk to send notification emails to my preferred email address. I would prefer to manage the ticket dialogue with the customer via email, rather than login to the web URL.

  1. Is there a way that I can have a two-way dialogue via email (outlook) and the emails all drop into the ticket audit trail?
  1. If not, does Freshdesk have a desktop app that I can use to manage the tickets, rather than login to the web url?

Thanks

Mark

Yes, Freshdesk supports two-way email communication—just reply from your email, and it updates the ticket thread

 


The discussion around optimizing ticket workflow and integrating external tools like Outlook is crucial for efficiency, but it’s just as important to manage mental bandwidth. When juggling complex support conversations all day, short, focused breaks are essential for maintaining productivity and avoiding burnout. For a quick mental reset, I often turn to quick, engaging mobile games, and for anyone looking for that kind of dedicated, fun escape, checking out the latest updates for mini militia is a great way to clear your head before jumping back into the queue.
