Freshworks Inc.<\/a> announced that\u00a0CDO Foodsphere<\/a>, one of the largest food manufacturing companies in the Philippines, is using\u00a0Freshservice<\/a> to empower its IT team to support a 5,000 person workforce that serves millions of CDO customers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To support the growing team of 5,000 employees, CDO has scaled its IT staff to 50 and needed a more modern, self-service to replace traditional internal support channels like email and phone, to provide employees with a delightful experience. Freshservice, Freshworks\u2019  IT service management software, was the right-sized option for CDO\u2019s IT team which was already ITIL-certified and in the middle of a huge, multi-year digital transformation journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFreshservice was extremely easy for us to set up. We got up and running in a matter of a few weeks,\u201d\u00a0said\u00a0Raymond Canilao, Knowledge Management Lead at CDO.\u00a0\u201cWe were quickly able to get value for our investment in Freshworks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Freshservice implementation was carried out in phases and key modules such as incident management with defined SLAs were in place in a matter of weeks, making sure that a consumer-focussed brand like CDO did not face any interruption in service to their employees during the implementation phase. Within a span of 12-16 weeks, the 45-year old company\u2019s IT system transitioned fully to the cloud, and made it easy and quick for employees to reach out to their IT team for support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy first impression about Freshservice was that it was fresh,\u201d added\u00a0Canilao. \u201cThe user interface (UI) of Freshservice proved to be highly intuitive and user-friendly, enabling our employees to submit and approve requests with ease, even without undergoing extensive training. Additionally, the service catalog delivered an e-commerce-like experience, which our employees found extremely appealing and enjoyable.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CDO benefitted from a comprehensive range of Freshservice features that were unavailable in the incumbent\u2019s legacy system, including a knowledge base combined with Freshworks the virtual agent functionality that both enable employee self service for answers. Other features like workflow automation, automatic ticket assignment, alert integration, and asset discovery have proven to be incredibly valuable in streamlining IT service delivery, reducing response times, and providing a more personalized user experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith Freshservice, we can now offer a more efficient and effective IT service management system that meets the needs of our organization and our employees. We are excited about the possibilities that Freshservice has opened up for us and are confident that our decision to adopt this platform will pay dividends in the long run,\u201d added\u00a0Canilao.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result of implementing Freshservice, the CDO IT team was able to provide a first response rate of 94.59% (within 30 minutes) and 98.84% resolution SLA. Moreover, the team received a satisfaction rating of 99.67%, a near perfect employee experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFreshworks strives to deliver software that people actually love to use. Our right-sized IT service management solution empowers the IT managers that deliver incredible employee experiences. We believe empowered employees drive better business outcomes, and we\u2019re thrilled to help CDO do that,\u201d\u00a0said\u00a0Simon Ma, Director and Regional Manager of Freshworks ASEAN.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
