User Reviews

Reviewers find the Android app convenient for handling tickets away from the desk and reasonably smooth for basic use. The most common complaint is the lack of live chat support. Many users also report login problems, emails failing to load, and crashes, especially after updates. Several say the redesigns hurt productivity, and the app lacks features available on desktop, like customer details and workflows. Notification issues appear in a few reviews.

Pros

  • Convenient for responding to tickets when away from the desk
  • Feels smooth and solid for basic use
  • Helpful for tracking and assigning emails

Cons

  • Lacks live chat (Beacon) support, mentioned repeatedly
  • Login, loading, and email display failures, including SSO login loops
  • Updates and redesigns introduce bugs, crashes, and productivity-hurting changes
  • Missing features found on desktop, such as customer info, workflows, and tablet layout
  • Push notifications unreliable or hard to configure in-app
