Overview
Frappe Helpdesk is a customer service platform built on Frappe Framework, combining agent and customer portals with SLAs, automatic ticket assignment, knowledge base, and saved replies, with hosted and self-hosted options.
Features and best fit
Based on official documentation; not hands-on tested · Content checked:
Separate customer ticket submission from agent operations with dedicated portals
Customers can submit and track issues while agents work from a purpose-built support interface.
Standardize support with SLAs, assignment rules, and knowledge base
Automatic routing, SLA tracking, help articles, and saved replies help make ticket operations repeatable.
For self-hosted support inside the Frappe ecosystem
It suits organizations already using or evaluating Frappe Framework and wanting ticketing integrated into the same platform.

Supplemental curator note
Frappe Helpdesk provides a Zendesk/Help Scout-style ticket workflow within the Frappe ecosystem. Production installation is streamlined, but Helpdesk branches have explicit Frappe Framework compatibility requirements, so upgrades should follow the compatibility matrix.
