FreeScout is the super lightweight and powerful free open source help desk and shared inbox written in 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.
Overall I’m super impressed with the software. Now we can add unlimited users, unlimited mailboxes, and make any modifications + custom modules. We might want to fully integrate the support desk with our website and development processes. Win win win!
