Freshdesk
Freshdesk is an accessible IT service desk for SMBs and growing IT teams, with multi-channel ticketing and a free tier, headquartered in San Mateo.
Overview
Freshdesk is the customer service and IT ticketing platform from Freshworks, built around multi-channel intake (email, phone, web, chat), automated routing, and a knowledge base. For IT-leaning organizations that need field-dispatch capabilities, Freshdesk pairs with sister product Freshservice rather than handling work orders natively.
Pricing
Freshdesk publishes three paid tiers, billed annually: Growth at $19/agent/month, Pro at $55/agent/month, and Enterprise at $89/agent/month. The accessible entry point is part of why Freshdesk is a common pick for growing IT teams that don’t want to commit to enterprise-priced ITSM tools out of the gate.
