Heedback is ideal if…

You want traditional helpdesk features plus product feedback and roadmap tools, without paying per-agent or relying on third-party add-ons.

Freshdesk is a popular helpdesk solution from Freshworks, known for its approachable interface and generous free tier that supports up to ten agents. It covers the core helpdesk needs well — ticketing, automation workflows, SLA tracking, and even phone support on higher plans. For teams that need a traditional helpdesk with call center capabilities, Freshdesk remains a solid contender.

However, Freshdesk’s tiered pricing model means that many useful features are locked behind more expensive plans, and it offers no native product feedback or roadmap tools. Teams that want to collect feature requests, let users vote on priorities, or share a public roadmap need to add separate services, which increases both cost and complexity.

Heedback addresses this gap by combining helpdesk features with a complete product feedback suite in one platform. Feature voting boards, a public roadmap, and a changelog come built in alongside the support inbox and knowledge base. Every capability is available from day one, with no per-agent fees or feature gates. For teams that have outgrown Freshdesk’s free tier or want to consolidate their support and feedback tools into a single solution, Heedback provides a straightforward path.
