It is well suited for medium to large companies that manage different teams and need to communicate constantly and track progress in a timely manner. It is less suited for small enterprises as it will overwhelm users with the features and functionalities embedded.

• Their customer support is very responsive. If they have any problems, they fix them quickly.
• They are constantly trying to improve and expand their offering, which is beneficial to our growing company.
• It is very user-friendly and easy to manage. The analytics are pretty good as well.

• While I am not an engineer; it is known that Helpshift can be a bit of a pain to get it implemented into our applications.
• There are some issues with the badge when it comes to the notifications of messages that let the user know they have a reply from customer service.

Helpshift is really easy to use and set up. We enjoy the automation to automatically route certain issues to different smart folders. There's just a lot of flexibility in the functionality to make things work for our team in the best way. I didn't give it a 10/10 just because we need SMS/Apple Business Chat and Helpshift doesn't yet offer that. They also don't currently support social media channels but they are working on releasing that soon.

Bottom line is that it does what you need it to do. We've been using Service Now as a ticket managing tool for a few years now. There's really not much it can't do when it comes to recording interactions. It has been nice using inventory tracking for software licenses and hardware as well.

The few times we've had to contact them, they were courteous and gave us the information we needed swiftly.

Support has been very good. Any time there has been a real issue, the team has responded very quickly and identified the issue without a lot of repetitive questions that I've seen from other services. There is a great external community and internal knowledge base that covers pretty much anything you need.

Zendesk is used for customer communication via email and Helpshift is used for chat, they are for the same purpose but with different response times.

Atlassian Jira lacks certain features and process which was delivered by ServiceNow Customer Service Management. Also, flexibility to customise was a point to select ServiceNow Customer Service Management tool. Cost which was high than Atlassian Jira compensated as it improved overall customer satisfaction and reduced resolution time by taking help of Knowledge base integration

• The negative impact for my team is the delay in team completing tickets but not a system issue.
• A positive impact for my team is we can easily view the status of tickets and the follow-up emails are beneficial to maintain records of tickets.
• Negative impact is that there is no user job aid or helpful tools for new users.
