When we started Hiver, we had a clear vision – to create a helpdesk that would revolutionize customer service operations for teams worldwide. Fast forward to today, and we’re proud to be serving over 10,000 teams across 2,000+ customers.

We had to rethink our approach to customer service, ensuring that our solution could adapt to the diverse needs of our growing user base. This challenge led us to develop innovative strategies to overcome the scaling hurdle, and we’re excited to share our experiences with you.
Adapting to Diverse Customer Needs
As our user base grew, we noticed that every team had unique customer service requirements. Some teams needed custom workflows, while others required seamless integrations with their existing tools. We had to cater to these diverse needs without compromising on our core values – simplicity, collaboration, and user-friendliness. To achieve this, we invested heavily in developing a flexible architecture that could support a wide range of customer service scenarios.For instance, we introduced custom workflows that allowed teams to tailor their customer service processes to specific business needs. We also developed a robust API that enabled seamless integrations with popular tools like Salesforce and HubSpot. These adaptations not only improved customer satisfaction but also enabled our teams to focus on higher-value tasks.
Process Automation: The Key to Scalability
As our user base grew, manual processing became a significant bottleneck. We had to automate repetitive tasks to free up our teams’ time and focus on more strategic activities. We achieved this by implementing intelligent automation workflows that could identify and resolve common customer service issues. This not only reduced our response times but also enabled our teams to focus on complex, high-value tasks that required human expertise.Additionally, we leveraged machine learning algorithms to analyze customer interactions and identify opportunities for process improvements. This proactive approach enabled us to anticipate and resolve potential issues before they affected our users. By automating manual processes and leveraging AI-driven insights, we were able to maintain our high standards of customer service even as our user base grew.
Empowering Customer Service Teams
As we scaled, we realized that our customer service teams needed more than just tools – they required a collaborative environment that fostered knowledge sharing, creativity, and innovation. We achieved this by developing a robust knowledge base that captured our teams’ collective expertise. This enabled new team members to ramp up quickly and ensured that our teams could resolve complex customer service issues efficiently.We also introduced regular training sessions, workshops, and feedback mechanisms to ensure that our teams were equipped with the latest skills and best practices.
