Here’s how Hiver fares better than Freshdesk

Hiver doesn’t force you to
learn a new interface

Hiver allows you to serve your customers via email and chat without forcing you to leave your inbox. You don’t have to change your behavior or learn a new interface.

Freshdesk's UI can be cluttered, slow, and buggy. The configuration is complicated, and it comes with a steep learning curve.

Internal collaboration is more seamless with HiverInternal collaboration is more seamless with Hiver

You’ll always find a proactive
support team at Hiver 

Hiver offers uninterrupted 24x7 real-time and personalized chat and email support across all plans.

With Freshdesk, your tickets will often be escalated and require continuous follow-ups. Since they only offer 24x5 chat support on specific plans, you’ll experience delay in resolutions.

Hiver offers in-depth
reporting and analytics

Hiver comes with a host of highly customizable reports. You can easily access insights at a granular level about your workload distribution and your team's performance.

Freshdesk’s reporting is limited and complicated to configure. For example, Freshdesk doesn’t let you sort your agents’ performance and efficiency by customers. GET ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS
