Freshdesk

Freshworks' sales CRM with built-in phone, email and AI

Overview

Freshservice is the IT service management product of Freshworks Inc., a Nasdaq-listed company that reports to the SEC from San Mateo, California[5]. Freshworks recorded revenue of US$838.8 million in 2025, up from US$720.4 million in 2024; the figure covers all its products, including the Freshdesk customer support line[5].

Freshservice is sold in four tiers that map closely to the ITIL process set. Starter covers incident, knowledge and task management with a support portal; Growth adds a service catalog, SLA management, on-call management and cloud management; Pro adds problem, change, major incident, release and workload management plus employee journeys; Enterprise adds a sandbox, audit logs and Freddy AI Agent and Insights[4]. This structure lets a team begin with ticketing and add formal change and problem processes later without migrating.

Freddy AI, Freshworks’ AI layer, is included in Enterprise, while Freddy AI Copilot is an add-on at US$29 per agent per month on Pro[4]. The trade-off is that change and problem management, which many organisations consider core ITSM, sit only in the US$99 Pro tier and above, and the most useful AI features carry extra cost below Enterprise.
