Our brand promise of delivering 'Customer-For-Life Software' aligns with the Japanese culture of 'Omotenashi', that is striving to offer the best customer experience. Our partnership with OrangeOne is the ideal way to empower Japanese businesses craft such experiences." Shin Kasugahara, CEO of OrangeOne corporation, "In recent years, Japanese companies of all sizes including startups, SME and large enterprises, have started to recognize customer engagement as a critical challenge. Most CX products are either too expensive or complicated and it takes a lot of effort and cost to understand and deploy the system. In some cases, inexpensive products with a DIY approach deter companies without the technical knowledge to adopt. As a result, we often hear that companies hesitate to deploy the system or give up early. Freshworks products are ideal for any company, regardless of size. The company's design philosophy of delivering simple to use products and customer centric pricing models makes it a preferred choice for businesses." Anand Venkatraman, VP of Global Partnerships at Freshworks, said, "OrangeOne is dedicated to enabling businesses deliver unparalleled experiences. Their expertise in implementing cloud software solutions coupled with their strong reach in the region makes this partnership symbiotic. We see a lot of potential in the Japanese market as we scale our operations in the region and will continue to serve businesses striving to build lasting relationships with their customers."

Having done so, we are now far better able to distribute tasks amongst the support team, track current workload and assess resource requirements in relation to company growth. Transparency with the users has improved along with vastly increased "self-service" resources. All of which has led to an increase in user satisfaction." *Source: Report on Digital Transformation: Overcoming of '2025 Digital Cliff' Involving IT Systems and Full-fledged Development of Efforts for Digital Transformation (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan) https://www.meti.go.jp/english/press/2018/0907_004.html About Freshworks Freshworks provides customer engagement software to businesses of all sizes, making it easy for customer support, sales and marketing professionals to communicate more effectively with customers and deliver moments of wow.
