Automates ticket assignment between contributors in Freshdesk, enhancing inter-departmental communication and reducing customer wait times.
Initially, Freshdesk contributors faced significant challenges in efficiently managing ticket assignments. Contributors were unable to directly assign tickets to other contributors, causing delays when multiple departments were involved. This process required agents to communicate with the main agent for reassignment, leading to increased waiting times for customers and unnecessary overhead for agents. The lack of a streamlined system impacted operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
The automation solution allows contributors to mention other contributors in a note, triggering an automatic ticket reassignment. This integration with Google Chat sends a summary message to the relevant group, enabling dynamic involvement across departments. By setting the ticket status to “Waiting for contributors,” agents streamline the process without additional steps. Contributors can filter and manage relevant tickets, maintaining a clear overview. This automation significantly improves operational efficiency and is tailored to meet business needs by facilitating faster ticket processing.
This automation removes Freshdesk's limitations on contributor ticket assignments, streamlining internal collaboration and reducing response delays. Previously, only main agents could reassign tickets, leading to unnecessary back-and-forth and increased customer wait times. Now, contributors can mention colleagues in a note, triggering an automatic reassignment and notifying them via Google Chat with a ticket summary.
Agents only need to set the status to “Waiting for contributors,” eliminating manual coordination. Contributors can filter and view relevant tickets, ensuring faster processing. The result is improved internal workflow, reduced customer waiting times, and better cross-department collaboration, ultimately leading to higher efficiency and customer satisfaction.
