Happyfox vs. Freshdesk—basic ticketing vs. full-featured helpdesk

Happyfox has done a lot for such a small company, and they’re fine for basic ticketing. But what if you need well-tested, advanced features like self-service, searchable articles, and Facebook integration? You’ll want to consider Freshdesk.

And does your support team need a power-up? Happyfox doesn’t have AI—or a free trial.
