## Reviews

### "Efficient ticket management tool" — 5.0/5

> **Prajwal** | *August 31, 2025* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The fact that navigating through tickets in simple, merging them, built in tags for tracking&#10;Able to use some canned responses
> 
> **Cons**: Not a lot to not like about with helpdesk&#10;Some things like visual appeal is something that can be worked on

### "HelpDesk is Helpful lol" — 5.0/5

> **Sophia** | *September 8, 2025* | Gambling & Casinos | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Its easy to navigate and the user interface is nice. The archive feature is super handy as well. I like that it also links to the LiveChat.
> 
> **Cons**: The taglines could be a bit longer so that we can fully see the tag. It would also be nice to be able to sort the inbox using tags, archived emails I mean. If there was a feature where we could see agents typing from the inbox view, it would be helpful. Same for a draft section to easily pick up from a draft if we close the tab.
> 
> It's not too bad, I love its functionality so far. I like that is easy to pick up the hang of things. The buttons and functions are pretty intuititive.

> 
> **Pros**: Everything is available at one spot - emails, chats, texts, etc. Availability of the phone app is great.
