Why teams leave Freshdesk

✓

Built for customer tickets, not teamwork

Freshdesk's conversations, tasks, and knowledge base are designed for customer support interactions, not internal team collaboration.

✓

No internal team chat

Freshchat is customer-facing. There is no built-in way for your team to have internal real-time conversations without another tool.

✓

No video calls or meetings

Freshdesk has no video or voice calling for team meetings. You still need Zoom or Google Meet for internal discussions.

✓

AI automates tickets, not teamwork

Freshdesk AI routes customer tickets and suggests responses. It does not help with internal meetings, project management, or team conversations.

How Trilo helps

A Workspace Built for Your Team

Freshdesk's conversations, tasks, and knowledge base are built for customer interactions. Trilo is built for how your internal team works: chat for real-time collaboration, kanban boards for project management, docs for team knowledge, and AI coworkers that help with all of it.

AI for Internal Productivity

Freshdesk AI automates customer ticket routing and responses. Trilo AI coworkers help your internal team: they transcribe team meetings, create tasks from standup conversations, draft internal docs, and join group discussions as autonomous participants.

Project Management, Not Ticket Management

Freshdesk tracks customer tickets through resolution pipelines. Trilo gives you real project management: kanban boards, time tracking, calendars with booking links, dependencies, and multiple views. Internal projects need different tools than customer support queues.
