Why Connect Doodle to Freshdesk?

Student enrolment data in Doodle and billing records in Freshdesk are managed separately, causing discrepancies

Client engagement details in Doodle and time-tracking data in Freshdesk do not align, making billing inaccurate

Doodle uses a REST API while Freshdesk uses REST + Webhook, requiring careful middleware to translate data formats between the two platforms

No single source of truth when polls live in two disconnected tools, so staff second-guess which system has the correct information

Freshdesk adds complexity: reporting on lower tiers is basic - custom dashboards and advanced analytics require the Pro or Enterprise plans

Reporting across Doodle and Freshdesk requires painful manual exports and spreadsheet merges

Manually copying data between Doodle and Freshdesk wastes hours every week that could be spent on revenue-generating work

New team members take longer to onboard because they must learn manual workarounds to keep Doodle and Freshdesk aligned
