About Freshservice

Freshservice is a hosted ITSM platform from Freshworks built on ITIL practices. It brings service requests, IT operations and asset management into one web application, with AI features to help IT teams resolve issues and handle employee requests.

It runs as a cloud service, so there is nothing to install or host. Organisations can start for free from the website or book a demo, and Freshworks says more than 20,000 businesses use it.

Strengths

  • Help desk, IT operations and assets on one platform
  • Built around ITIL practices
  • Hosted, with no server to maintain

Limitations

  • Cloud only, with no self-hosted option
  • Commercial service aimed at businesses
