"Help shift usage experience in past 6 months"
What do you like best about Helpshift?

Since, I was involved in integrating help shift around two years back onto Zynga Games/Customer supports, I was impressed with the set of customizations we can have on the Help shift, categorizing issues etc.! The customer reported issues are tracking and grouped conveniently by Help shift.

What do you dislike about Helpshift?

I don't know, whether help shift provide metrics on the number of related issues etc. like grouping of similar issues etc.

What problems is Helpshift solving and how is that benefiting you?

Customer Issue reporting, feedback tracking for in-game issues are tracked via Help shift. Also, it is medium to reach out to user with the solution for his/her issue etc. by the Help shift. Help shift APIs provide a segregation and clustering of similar related issues

"Helpshift- The easiest way to see everything you need"
What do you like best about Helpshift?

Helpshift is an easy way to find all the information that you are looking for. You can review the customer's current issue and look at previous issues that they may have had. It is great that you can leave notes so you can see what other associates have done to help. I also love having all the customer's information in one ticket. It makes things easier and faster for helping.

What do you dislike about Helpshift?

Sometimes, I feel like I have to hunt to find certain things. For example, trying to find reports on certain issues. Once I find it, there is so much information but getting there can be a challenge. As a suggestion, I would recommend that the interface looks a little more friendly. Maybe add some color. Other than that, it has been an easy process to learn and use.

What problems is Helpshift solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have customers email and live chat right now. Live chat is amazing for the fact you can resolve a customer's issue in a matter of minutes. Email is great when the customer's issue is a little more complex and needs more attention. Live Chat is great for quick and easy issues.
