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.
FreeScout is an absolute gem for my use case. The minimalist and clean interface is actually what brought me to test it, I can’t stand those over complicated products with no ergonomic or pleasant user experience. FreeScout is efficient, straight to the point, and let me manage incoming support requests without any burden. (Using FreeScout for more than 2 years)
