We have a new integration in LabsMobile. Now you can send SMS messages through the LabsMobile platform and the Freshdesk plugin.
Freshdesk is a help desk software. It is responsible for optimizing the time of technical support teams in companies. It is a highly recommended tool for after sales service.
You can visit their website to see all the functionalities. https://www.freshworks.com/freshdesk/
Configure your user to communicate the events you need to a script and then you can send SMS notifications from Freshdesk.
To make the integration you need to have a Freshdesk user, a LabsMobile user account and a script that receives Freshdesk events (Webhook) and communicates with the LabsMobile API.
To do the installation you need to follow 7 steps:
If you want to see the complete process with more details or you want to download the example script in PHP access the LabsMobile SMS plugin for Freshdesk.
What can Freshdesk be used for? There are several use cases for sending SMS. Here are the most important ones:
At LabsMobile we use Freshdesk and what a better channel to immediately communicate the status of support tickets than SMS messages.
Through a script very similar to the one we have published, notifications are automatically sent via SMS when a ticket status changes. You can download it and see how to install it in the SMS plugin for Freshdesk section.
This way our customers receive immediately when a ticket has been answered or resolved. And they can see the details of the ticket (history, answers, etc.) in a link from the SMS itself. Customers can visualize almost in real time the answers and receive the best support.
With this integration and thanks to the SMS channel, ticket resolution time has decreased by 27% and user satisfaction has increased.
This is an example of a message sent:
