The AI Predictive CES really stands out for our team because it seems to be able to accurately predict customer satisfaction and sentiment. The results have been making our responses more impactful and personalized.

CONS

We’ve asked when it will have more multilanguage support and are still waiting.

A Comprehensive SUPPORT Solution

Thus far, our experience with Supportbench has been fantastic. It’s been the perfect system for managing our high volume of incoming cases extremely quickly and easily.

PROS

One big draw to Supportbench is the price point. It’s incredibly cost-effective, especially when factoring in the volume of feature sets as we’ve been able to replace some other expensive tools with Supportbench. We also didn’t spend a lot on the initial set-up and training.

CONS

There are some reporting features we’re waiting for, however, Supportbench’s documentation and internal support has been great with work-arounds.

Reason for choosing Supportbench

I chose Supportbench over Freshdesk because it offers a more reliable and user-friendly interface. All these features make Supportbench a better choice for me.

Reasons for switching to Supportbench

There are many reasons I choose to switch from Desk.com to SupportBench. Some of the features and benefits offered by SupportBench that are attractive to me Like more customization and automation options, better customer service analytics, improved customer support features such as ticket routing, and more. Additionally, SupportBench offers more affordable pricing plans than Desk.com.

Supportbench Review

We've encountered some bugs with Supportbench but their team has been very quick to respond and resolve the issues. They also check in regularly to see how we're doing. The support has been great so far.

PROS

The support from their team is great. They are quick to respond and have had all the answers to my questions.

CONS

The UX could use some improvement. The agent desk interface seems a little bit bulky and has a different feel than other web applications.

The Sherlock Holmes of Customer Support

Let me tell you, Supportbench is the cat's pajamas! No need to keep the IT team on speed dial anymore - we're in the driver's seat. And with those snazzy features like AI-driven sentiment analysis and intent detection, it's like having our own customer support Sherlock Holmes!

PROS

Since we left Zendesk to welcome Supportbench, things have been smooth sailing. This nifty tool even dishes out a 360-degree customer overview. It's like we've got customer support superpowers now!

CONS

The only gripe I have is that their self-help guide feels a bit like a treasure hunt without a map. More detailed documentation would be way more useful

SupportBench – Elevating Customer Service to new heights

Maintaining a reliable and efficient customer service base is no easy task especially if you’re receiving requests and responses left, right, and centre but with SupportBench I am able to do this and MORE! At the end of the day, I would not want to compromise my business and with SupportBench I don’t need to as it is cost-effective and efficient.

PROS

As a business owner, Supportbench allows me to view my sales data as well as create workflows on our customer's information. Supportbench’s exciting feature allows me to view and respond to customer’s requests and questions more efficiently than usual. Integrating chatbots using ChatGPT is an amazing feature I thought I never needed. Customizable, user-friendly, and affordable sums up my satisfaction.

CONS

This is not a red cross against SupportBench but I do wish for their support to be as efficient as the SupportBench tool.

True Case management with Supportbench

Supportbench has not only enhanced our customer support but also played a pivotal role in team accountability and performance tracking. The customizable SLA’s have been pivotal in this respect.

PROS

We’ve been able to customize the Supportbench dashboards and KPI scorecards. That’s something we were never really able to do in quite an intuitive ways. Its malleable enough that we’re able to work the way we want to work. Also we have a clear view of our performance and areas to improve.

CONS

We haven’t gotten through the whole system yet. I can see there are a lot more feature sets we could be using if we took the time at a department level.

A New Way of Ticketing with Supportbench

it has led to a more proactive approach in customer management and for now, fewer escalations.

PROS

The health scoring is definitely a standout. Gave me insights i didn't have before, certainly not in a ticketing tool.

CONS

Going from many tools to one was an adjustment, but it is not having all systems communicating.

Next-level Customer Contact Management

Overall, this product has really changed my experience in IT/Helpdesk support. I can't recommend it enough, and hope other companies get on board with using it, as I feel it'll help many other support technicians simplify their time at work, just as it's simplified mine.

PROS

This software has been incredible in helping us track ticket requests more accurately, with a wonderful interface, to boot. The notes have been a huge help in keeping track of the situations on each ticket, and it does this better than other software, in my opinion. I have yet to see any real errors, which I can't say for a large amount of other ticket-management software out there. The lack of limit on queues has been amazing for keeping things organized and flowing well during heavy-traffic business hours. The interface is also amazingly clean and simple in its design, while still having all the features easily accessible. It's astounding how well this software is designed, and I hope to see it grow. I've learned a lot about what support desk software is capable of without breaking the bank for the company. Every time I've needed help, they've always been able to fix it within a few minutes, as well. They provide truly top-notch customer support that I feel falls off a bit with the more expensive and higher-end software, such as Zendesk.

CONS

There was a bit of a hiccup as I was learning how to use it, but it ended up being on me. Their customer support came to the rescue once again and helped me sort it out in no time, so I honestly can't say I have a con at this point.

The end of a long and tiring search for the right helpdesk

It took me several false starts and a lot of research before I found Support Bench. I wish I'd found them first, it would have saved me a chunk of time and money. It has addressed all our current help desk requirements and looks like it's capable of growing with us as we take on more staff and improve our process. It's clear that they are constantly developing and refining the product.

PROS

I spent way longer than I wanted to, or expected to, trying to find a good system. The team behind this software is extremely responsive. I had a few questions and a couple of issues when first getting started and they responded extremely quickly and helped me get back on track. They are also willing to consider suggestions and feature requests and have already actioned a couple of small requests I made. The SLA warnings are very useful and it's easy to spot when items are starting to slip. Setting up responses and templates is very straightforward. Extremely competitive price means that any size company will be able to run this desk. Super-friendly team. It's clear the guys get on great and are very enjoyable to work with.

CONS

I'd like to be able to customize the views a little more - for example I'd like to be able to resize the column widths which is not currently possible, but I have heard it's something they are working on. Workflows work perfectly but are not as simple to set up as some systems I tried out.

Supportbench lets me focus on other needs of the business

I love how Supportbench allows me to focus on all my other tasks, outside of problem solving. Since implementing Supportbench we’ve been able to connect all departments, allowing both our Sales and Marketing teams to see overlapping themes and focus on big picture improvements.

PROS

Supportbench has markedly raised our customer happiness and made my teams more efficient. Supportbench’s third-party platform integrations are seamless; they’re not plug ins. We’ve already been able to let go of 2 tools we were using/paying for because Supportbench does it within the system already. Also, there aren't any limits on the plan. You get everything included and no one has been bothering to upsell our company.

CONS

The customer portal, if you want to customize it, you need some coding expertise. However the Supportbench team can make almost all types of modifications as you need them.

Support Bench Saved us Hundred hour

There are still some integrations in the system that we’re looking for and looking forward to them building it down the line.

PROS

We have been using Supportbench for a over a year now and it has been helping us streamline our workflows. The customer support team at Supportbench is also incredibly friendly and helpful; shout out to [sensitive content hidden]!

CONS

Some of the features in Supportbench… I’ve never seen them in any system. It’s great as I can work the way I want to work with the tool that I need at my finger tips. The system's features are also well-organized, it feels as though a Support Team actually built it.

Reasons for switching to Supportbench

Bench is better than Zendesk because it simplifies the customer service process and provides a more automated, personalized experience. Bench takes the hassle out of having to manage multiple customer service software solutions, as it provides an all-in-one customer service platform that includes ticketing, live chat, automation, and more. Additionally, Bench is more affordable than Zendesk and offers a more robust suite of features and customization options.

Resolving IT tickets in NO Time

Working in customer support is challenging at the best of times and Supportbench has become my favorite software. It helps me organize my work, notifies me of things I need to get done, and makes my life a lot easier. I also have to give a shout out to their support team, I read reviews before I started my trial that said they were great, and they really are and make you feel like they are a part of your team.

PROS

From the initial trial to the onboarding, it’s been surprisingly friendly and easy to walk through. You don’t have to be an IT expert to know how to use it or add integrations, you just need to know what you want, which can be challenging. For things that I haven’t been able to answer, I’ve been able to find videos that are easy to follow and if I can find one, their support team made videos for our team to watch and follow. One of my favorite parts is that we can brand it with our company logo and colors, it makes it feel like software built just for us

CONS

The user interface takes a bit of getting used to as they so things pretty different from any other ticketing systems I’ve used in the past. Could use some tweaking here and there.

Can’t live without Supportbench.

The team at Supportbench was integral to taking our department to the next level. Even after onboarding and training of the platform, they stayed in contact with us to ensure our workflows were optimal and we were using Supportbench to the full extent to maximize Customer Success.

PROS

Killer Customer Management Solution

Supportbench is refreshingly user friendly. It’s been a great advantage of our growing company because we’re handing more customer issues than ever before and we have far fewer complaints because we’re resolving tickets so efficiently.

PROS

With Supportbench’s Omnichannel tool set, we’re now able to provide exceptional customer service across every customer touchpoint. Handling emails, social accounts and chat are peaceful because it’s finally all professionally configured. The calendar feature makes it so easy to organize internal teams and respective tasks as well at external appointments. Also, having no queue limits or restriction on service levels has helped us designate work more effectively than ever before.

“Systematized Support, Offering Great Service to Customers”

In all honesty, the app doesn’t have that big of a drawback. I would just suggest expanding its functionalities to further improve the user’s experience.

PROS

Supportbench is easy to navigate and convenient to use. A lot better than other ticketing software in terms of interface and functionality. I can see all the data that I need to in a simplified and organized way. And if it’s not precisely what I want, I can customize it to fit what I need quite easily. Because it’s been so easy to use, it’s promoting more collaboration and communication within teams, making our work more efficient and effective.
