Helpdesk removes agent availability toggle without replacement
Freshdesk silently removed the agent availability switch that teams used to control ticket queue routing, leaving no equivalent control in its place. Support managers can no longer mark agents as unavailable, disrupting load balancing and on-call workflows. Low report volume suggests limited breadth but high frustration for affected teams.

Intercom Lacks Role-Based Controls to Prevent Accidental Ticket Closure
Support teams using Intercom cannot restrict which team members are allowed to close conversations or tickets, leading to accidental closures that disrupt workflows.
