Profile match
Freshworks is an American company founded in Chennai in 2010 that sells customer service, IT service management and sales software to small and mid-market businesses, deliberately competing on being simpler and cheaper to deploy than Salesforce and ServiceNow. Its argument is that most organisations buying enterprise service software use a fraction of it while paying for implementation consultants they cannot afford, and its products are designed to be configured by the team using them. Headquartered in San Mateo with its largest engineering base in Chennai and listed on Nasdaq, it now derives substantial growth from its IT service management line.

Organizations everywhere struggle under the crushing costs and complexities of “solutions” that promise to simplify their lives. To create a better experience for their customers and employees. To help them grow. Software is a choice that can make or break a business. Create better or worse experiences. Propel or throttle growth. Business software has become a blocker instead of ways to get work done.

There’s another option. Freshworks. With a fresh vision for how the world works.

At Freshworks, we build uncomplicated service software that delivers exceptional customer and employee experiences. Our enterprise-grade solutions are powerful, yet easy to use, and quick to deliver results. Our people-first approach to AI eliminates friction, making employees more effective and organizations more productive. Over 72,000 companies, including Bridgestone, New Balance, Nucor, S&P Global, and Sony Music, trust Freshworks’ customer experience (CX) and employee experience (EX) software to fuel customer loyalty and service efficiency. And, over 4,500 Freshworks employees make this possible, all around the world.
