We are planning to migrate from Cherwell (ITSM) to FreshWorks (FreshService & FreshDesk) and I am looking for feedback and guidance on your experiences.  We are currently planning to use Flycast as our implementer.  We hope to stick to the out of the box processes as much as possible; very interested in where you decided to deviate or heavily configure changes.
