FreeScout is the super lightweight and powerful free open source help desk and shared inbox built with PHP (Laravel framework). Now you can enjoy free Zendesk & Help Scout without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
I started with Chatwoot, then Zammad and now FreeScout. I really appreciate the simplicity of the software. And it’s super lightweight on server resources. Runs about 10 times less RAM at idle verse Zammad. I use the ticketing system concept as part of my sales funnel for an apparel business.
I want to use this opportunity to thank you so much for creating this awesome software and make it available for free to everyone. In my voluntary work we manage a shared mail address and with 5 persons it was such a big mess before switching to FreeScout. We also had a look at other helpdesk software before we found FreeScout, but the fees per agent always exceeded our yearly budget.
