EFICSA
Integrate WhatsApp Business on Freshdesk Omni with Freddy AI
How to place the company number in one inbox, without mistaking this page for a ticket portal.
The cost that is not on the license
EFICSA is the authorized distributor and implementer of Freshdesk in Guatemala and Central America. This guide explains how to place WhatsApp Business inside Freshdesk Omni. It is not a customer's ticket portal. If you are checking a case with a brand that already runs Freshdesk, that login is on their domain, not on eficsa.com.
Freshdesk Omni puts WhatsApp Business API, Instagram, Messenger, email, Freshchat and voice in one inbox. The SLA belongs to the queue, not to the social network. WhatsApp Business API is not the phone app. It needs a company number, a business account and approved templates to speak outside the session window. EFICSA connects that number, names the queue and sets the clock to the Guatemala or Panama day, or to the day where the team actually sits.
What lands in the Omni inbox.
| Channel | What is configured | What it is not |
|---|---|---|
| WhatsApp Business API | Number, templates and queue | The analyst's personal app |
| Instagram and Messenger | Thread on the same queue | A customer's ticket portal |
| Email, chat and voice | Queue SLA | Five separate inboxes |
What is being compared
Freddy AI Agent answers what is already in the knowledge base and escalates with context when the question does not fit. As an EFICSA commercial claim, not a measured study, that deflection can cover up to 60% of repetitive questions when the base is written and reviewed. It is not a guarantee. The approach is aligned to ISO/IEC 42001: an owner, a scope and a review. EFICSA does not claim an ISO certificate. Payment data and decisions only a person may take stay outside the automatic scope.
The knowledge base starts with the ten questions the team repeats every week. Each article has an owner and a date. Care Plus, 16 hours a month, is enough to keep that hygiene. SLAs are per queue. A new channel without an SLA is an inbox nobody prioritizes. Templates and the session window are in the written scope, because that small piece is what breaks the channel in week two.
How it runs afterward
Turn the number on only after a test: ten real messages, five the base should resolve and five it should escalate. If more fail than the team accepted, do not publish the number. The 30 to 60 days of Care Plus included with an annual license are for adjusting templates against real traffic. The invoice is in GTQ or USD, with MXN, COP and BRL facilities.

FAQ
Is this page my ticket portal?
No. EFICSA implements Freshdesk. A customer's portal lives on that operation's domain.
Is the 60% guaranteed?
No. It is an EFICSA commercial claim when the knowledge base is current. It is not an external measurement.
Are templates required?
Yes, to write on WhatsApp outside the session window. That belongs in the scope. It is not improvised in week two.
