According to the 2020 Gartner Magic Quadrant for IT Service Management Tools, “the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for robust ITSM tooling to enable I&O to effectively respond to significant disruption in several ways”.
“Freshservice has been a lifesaver for TaylorMade,” said Ali Chitsaz, global head of client experience at TaylorMade. “When the pandemic hit, our IT team was inundated with a 250% increase in inquiries from employees suddenly forced to navigate computer issues from their home office. Employing Freshservice enabled us to decrease response and resolution times by half while our employee satisfaction ratings went up from 60 to 70% to high 90%.”
“We believe that Gartner’s continued recognition of Freshworks reflects our drive to build powerful software that delivers great outcomes across our portfolio of employee and customer engagement products,” said Prakash Ramamurthy, Chief Product Officer at Freshworks. “Notably, when the pandemic hit in March, businesses turned to Freshworks to help them quickly shift to digital and remote solutions that enabled superb experience for their employees and great service for their customers.”
