Help Scout Recenzje 40

We used to have another similar tool but they didn't offer a knowledge base / help center feature. Helpscout has everything we needed in one place which is a huge time saver for our team of 5 support agents.

Been a customer for 2 years now. We are not switching EVER. Our support team really likes working on this tool and they don't even know what more feature to ask for. As for me I try to get the knowledge base always up to date and being able to navigate tickets makes sense for that.

We've been using Help Scout for a couple of years at the company I work for. It's a decent platform that is, for the most part, user-friendly. One thing I don't like about Helpscout is that they push their personal liberal agendas! This is NOT necessary, and I would appreciate them NOT doing this. They have a captive audience, and we don't need to be subject to their political agendas.
One other issue is that they seem to make random changes that are not necessarily beneficial. It's almost like someone is justifying their job by making changes.
It's a good platform, other than the above frustrations.

Cheapest by far in pricing with all the bells and whistles. With HS for 3 years and their new update free AI for all plans, and fees charged per contact is the most fair out there. I hope they keep this progress for the foresee future.

Bombarding our screens with woke and pride messages and flags. They make no sense at all from where I stand, some are disrespectful and totally misplaced.

Je suis très surpris de voir les avis au sujet de Help Scout. Nous utilisons cette solution depuis plusieurs années et nous avons vu l'évolution de la plateforme qui a été obligée de mettre à jour ses fonctionnalités pour conserver ses clients et c'est fait parfaitement. Les fonctionnalités d'IA sont très fiables. L'intégration des réseaux sociaux était très attendue, il manque juste WhatsApp pour que tout soit parfait. Et les plans tarifaires sont les plus bas en comparaison aux autres enseignes (Intercom, Zendesk, Tidio, etc...). Les nouveaux plans permettent d'être facturés sur le volume d'utilisation plutôt que sur le nombre de sièges et c'est la meilleure chose à faire. On paye pour l'utilisation et non pour le nombre d'utilisateurs.

En toute objectivité, après avoir testé de nombreux logiciels, Help Scout reste le plus fiable et le plus abordable avec toutes ces fonctionnalités. De plus, l'assistance est très rapide et toujours de bons conseils.

They just announced they are 'upgrading' our plan from 1500 a year to over 7500 a year. So that we can use AI drafts and have 'unlimited seats'.. we have two dedicated support team members, and no reason to use AI drafts because customers hate not talking to an actual person. Good luck to them I guess... we'll have to move on.

Disappointing Interview Experience with Help Scout

I had an interview scheduled with Help Scout(Erika Klics) as a software engineer. I joined the meeting 5 minutes early, ensuring I was prepared. However, the interviewer arrived late and barely engaged in any meaningful conversation—just a quick "Hi." Then, without any notice or explanation, they abruptly ended the meeting.

This experience left me feeling disrespected and questioning their professionalism. If this is how they treat candidates, I can only imagine how they handle customer support. A company that prides itself on great support should demonstrate the same level of respect and courtesy in all interactions, including hiring.

Very disappointing and unprofessional!

There's alot of woke messaging that appears which gets tiresome when some basic features don't work like having to close the same message mutiple times as it doesn't disappear.

Not an amazing first impression trying to sign up for the 15-day free trial and the registration form is bugging out like it's 1999 again. Gives the following error message: "Oops, something went wrong. Please contact us so we can help you finish setting up your account."

HelpScout is used by our company and its been solid over the years. However, the switch the new inbox was okay, nothing amazing. But man, do they take feedback because it started off with "ah. I see how that's a good change" and so on and so forth, but our team made some suggestions and whether it was them taking it dfrom us or from someone else or just internally on their end, they delivered. The move from Inbox 1 to Inbox 2 in HelpScout is complete. Just need to spend a day or so with it and you'll quickly see why it is their inbox of the future.

Help Scout has a lot of promise, but is following other services down the AI rabbit hole, pushing options we didn't ask for and actively don't want.

Additionally, they are enshitifying their product by replacing things that worked with less usefull alternatives.

Like many services, it feels like the developers have never actually been in a position to use the product as intended and instead build what they think people need.

I've been using Help Scout for nine years, and unfortunately, my experience has been less than satisfactory. Throughout this time, I've encountered numerous bugs, and while support assured me they would address these issues, they were never resolved. Additionally, I've noticed a steady increase in pricing and frequent changes to the plans, which has been frustrating.
The support experience has been particularly disappointing; often, the representatives seemed unaware of new features and updates, leading to promises that couldn't be fulfilled. I've also experienced issues with missing emails, and each time, it was attributed to a 'bug' with the comment that "this never happens."
Overall, I can't recommend Help Scout based on my experience, and I would advise caution when relying on the assurances from their head of support, Kristi.

You should definitely use it, especially if your site is on WordPress and you use WooCommerce for sales. It's perfect if you handle support through email.

I had some trouble signing up, and their response was a bit slow, but overall, it's a killer service.

We've been using HelpScout for a decade and it's been a pleasure to grow our company alongside the HS team! We originally moved from a shared Google inbox, and love how this software is personable and doesn't make our customers feel like a "ticket" and more of a conversation to serve them.

We love using HelpScout and their support team is super friendly and knowledgeable.

The Help Scout platform is one of the most user-friendly interfaces I have encountered in my career. The ability to customize workflows, mailbox settings, and reporting views has increased efficiency and allowed our team to focus on our #1 priority - our customers. While the platform is attractive, my favorite part is the customer service at Help Scout. I could not say enough great things about the care provided by the support team and our incredible account rep, Sewar Nasser. Great customer service is hard to find and Help Scout raises the bar.

Lisa Bradley, our Account Manager, is always extremely helpful. When we've had questions about how to best utilize HelpScout and its many features she has always been prompt about setting up a meeting.

Lisa, thanks for all of your help! It's always much appreciated.

As for HelpScout, we've had a very positive user experience to date. It's a great tool for ticket management and we're exploring some of the other features such as Beacon and Docs that seem to also be easy to setup and utilize.

We’ve been using HelpScout for the last 7 years and it has been exactly what we were looking for, an alternative option to overpriced enterprise level EMS options. As a tool, HelpScout is flexible, intuitive, and has all the features we need, plus many more we’ve yet to take advantage of. The team is responsive, knowledgeable, and always willing to lend a hand or answer a question. Cannot recommend them enough. HelpScout will not disappoint.

In previous versions they had a usefull WYSIWYG editor, with HTML supported. Changed this to some weird block editor, which does't work at all. We cannot modify our existing articles, so our whole knowledge base is messed up. Their answer is to manually edit every article, even though they messed up.
