# Freshservice integration

Freshservice is rightly regarded as an entry-level-friendly IT service management system. The business application is an ITIL-compliant solution that lets you get started immediately with ticket creation as well as incident, problem, or change management. It includes useful features such as asset management and a service catalog with rules that can be automated.

With sipgate, you can make calls directly in Freshservice and use your contacts in the sipgate app. This way, you always see who is calling and don’t have to switch between different tools. sipgate is your phone system with the telephony app for desktop and mobile.

Connect sipgate and Freshservice and benefit from automatic contact synchronization. All changes or new contacts that you add in the sipgate app during or after the call are automatically saved in Freshservice. **Integration of Freshservice in the sipgate app:**
