Hello, I would like to suggest some improvement for searching individual Tasks in search bar. Currently search bar only works when typing in subject of the task. That unfortunately is not working smoothly when it comes to locating particular Task and especially when it comes to look thru tasks that are auto generated with certain service items. I have hundreds tasks with the same name and it is time consuming to go to a list and just search that ID next to name. Can this improvement be made so it would work like with Tickets module?
Currently, shared fields can have Conditions added, but this is applied globally to every service item. It would be great to have the ability to add Conditions directly inside a specific service item to a shared field, so that the condition would apply only to that particular service item.In service item:In shared field manager:
Seems such a simple thing but why can’t we resize the columns displayed when in the Software and Contracts sections? One column has a ton of whitespace the and other wraps making it hard to read. While at it, would love to see the ability to choose which columns are displayed in those areas.Space needs a bit of the love being shown in the tickets area.
It would be great if we could build the forms for catalog items using the identical interface that is used when building a form activity in Journeys. I feel it is a much better interface for building sections, managing dynamic dropdown sections and just an overall cleaner interface. It also allows us to put fields on the same line/row instead of one monolithic column. This would allow a more compact form experience and one that would allow a more user friendly experience.
We have Freshservice Agents on our team who have stated that they are trying to do a Service Request while on the go, but the FS mobile app doesn’t have the ability once you have changed the FS Incident over to Service Request to actually Add an Item from the Service Catalog. The Agents who have lengthy commute times are wondering if FS Mobile could be set up with this “Add Item” featurte while away. If it was there, associated ticket automations with an SR could be processed efficiently. And the web page instance of FS is unwieldy to navigate over Chrome browser on both a tablet and a smart phone.Does anyone else come across this feature request? And would your FS Agent teams find it useful, especially where it may concern automations for Service Requests?
Hey everyone!I’m currently helping run a content-streaming platform that offers live sports, movies, and anime via Android APKs. We’ve started to grow our user base, and support requests are increasing — mostly about login issues, app errors, and device compatibility.I’m curious how others in the entertainment or app-based industries manage their support channels. Do you prefer Freshdesk over Freshchat for mobile-first users? Any automation tips for repetitive issues? How do you deal with users on modded Android OS or low-end phones? Would love to hear your workflows, tools, or any customer success tips that work well for high-volume but low-ticket-value platforms.Thanks in advance!
Hello.We would like to maintain or limit the possible language options on the login page for the user registration. As the customized fields or specific articles are only translated in the main languages we think a limit language option would make sense and improve the usability.
Currently when you want to change an agent into a collaborator account you have to first delete the agent and then create a collaborator account for them. You also cannot change collaborators to agent accounts either.It would be practical if you could change the type of account without having to delete it first.
As the number of important documents increases, tracking expiry dates manually becomes difficult. Most teams still rely on spreadsheets, calendar reminders, or email follow-ups, but these systems become unreliable over time.This is especially common for:passports visas contracts insurance documents licenses compliance certificates employee recordsA missed renewal can create delays, penalties, or operational issues.That’s why I started exploring better ways to centralize document tracking, expiry reminders, and renewal management in one place.Recently came across DocuAlerts which focuses on:automated expiry reminders secure document storage renewal tracking centralized visibility for important recordsCurious to know how others are currently managing document expiry tracking and renewal reminders at scale.
I’m sure that most of us will agree that the vast majority of IT services will require the ability to raise related Incidents (Report an Issue / Ticket) and/or Service Requests. Therefore for every new IT service being provided one needs to create both a new Category/Sub-Category in the ticket Field Manager and a Service Item.Our system integrator helped us to design a workflow that associates a Service Item with its corresponding Category/Sub-Category via a Custom Object. This is required for analysis and oversight. However, I strongly believe that there should be a built-in feature that allows you to correlate or align these two aspects (in the Field Manager or whilst editing a Service Item). I would like to hear your thoughts on this. What is your approach?
The description field at the top of the page - Have this opened by default. With the fact you cannot add images to a content field, I have some information with images and then have to note in the content field to look in the description area. Be able to add images to Content fields - Having images in the content so we can add images to be able to explain things to users. Service Catalog item listing - Being able to change how the list of service catalog items are listed, maybe change to two column’s. The main reason is how limited this area is for text. I have had to rethink some of the word of some to get it down to enough characters so it is not truncated. Edit or disable popular items - I would rather disable to popular items and let users see the full list when they load the page.
Users might associate it with an "About" or "FAQ" link. The icon-graphic could use a clearer symbol
I believe that FreshService is missing a huge opportunity when it comes to the way tasks are handled. We just rolled out FS and I was hoping to use tasks in order to structure clearly defined processes within our organization. The idea is that a SR would be submitted and tasks created for groups that had work to do in order to fulfill the SR.The problem?Tasks are not working that well in FS. I see three different problems that require some solutions and improvements in order to make this function the way most people would expect it to work.No unique task URL. Since I’m assigning tasks to a group and not an individual, it takes multiple clicks for a user to see any upcoming tasks. (My Work → Tasks → My Group Tasks → Upcoming). If there was a unique URL, the URL could just be bookmarked. We tested this, but that doesn’t work. There is no UI notification when a new task is assigned. Like incidents, it should be easy to put a red bubble notification with the quantity of tasks assigned - as I mentioned previously, there is no UI notification that a task is assigned - you have to rely on the email and that is easily missed. Lastly, I have been looking for a solution - it seems that for years, people have been begging to get the tasks updated, so I’m not very hopeful that this request or any other will benefit the community. I think tasks could be used very powerfully for organizations where a ticket doesn’t need to bounce around, but instead just one ticket could remain open while groups complete their tasksI hope to see FreshService put some effort into the tasks - as I mentioned previously, they could be very powerful to organizations that don’t want to unnecessarily open child tickets to accomplish a task. The days of moving a ticket from group to group should be over - that’s a slow way to handle customer service when multiple groups need to be involved. Tasks are the future; we just need to treat them that way.
Maybe I am doing this wrong, but a lot of the integrations from the marketplace (and webhooks initiated in the automations) require a users api key. I think this is really poor practice, as a lot of the integrations are using my API key. So if I leave, that API key will no longer be available and all the automations and webhooks will break. Unfortunately there’s no static API key outside of a user granted in the freshdesk system, and I feel like it’s kind of insane to have to pay extra money for an additional user license to have this all not be a SPOF.
Please can the ability to open tickets in tabs within a single browser window be added, this will make working on tickets of the same type easier to view without having multiple browser tabs open at the same time. Other service desk providers have this functionality and I have found it very useful.
Related to this post, in our use case we need a way for the QoS team to easily identify whether agents are linking Knowledge Base articles (Solutions) to tickets.Currently, it is difficult to see this association, and we would like to know if there is an existing method or a possible enhancement to make this linkage more visible and easier to track.We are aware that it is possible to create a report using the Data Export option, but we are looking for a more native and straightforward way to view this information, similar to how it works in GLPI, for example.
