Ticketing channels in Freshdesk Omni help you handle customer requests from different sources in one place, keeping things organized and easy to manage. Here's a list of the different ticketing channels you can use to manage support in Freshdesk Omni:
Email Ticketing
With Freshdesk Omni, you can effortlessly manage support through email. Here’s how it works:
Default Support Email: Say your company name is Acme. When you sign up, Freshdesk gives you a default support email like [email protected]. Any email sent to this address automatically becomes a support ticket.
Add More Emails: You can add other emails in Freshdesk Omni, like [email protected] or [email protected]. This helps different teams (groups) or departments manage support separately.
Easy Replies: When you reply to a ticket, the response will come from the email address where the ticket was received. For example, if the ticket came to [email protected], the reply will also come from [email protected].
Seamless Customer Experience: The end customer doesn't realize your company uses Freshdesk. All communications come directly from your company’s email addresses, ensuring a smooth and professional support experience.

Submit Tickets: Customers can submit support tickets directly through the portal, providing detailed information about their issues.
Customization: You can customize your portal with your logo, favicon, and brand colors for a seamless and recognizable customer experience.
You can also create multiple portals to manage different products or tailor the experience for client segments, such as clients with different languages or VIP clients.
