FreeScout — Free Self-Hosted Help Scout & Zendesk Alternative
FreeScout is a super lightweight free open source help desk and shared inbox written in PHP7 (Laravel 5.5 framework), full analog of HelpScout. Now you can enjoy a self hosted clone of Help Scout & Zendesk without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
FreeScout has been developed from scratch and is not using any copyrighted Help Scout materials to comply with GitHub's DMCA Policy (trademark, logos, icons, CSS, JS, HTML files are copyrighted; idea, look and feel cannot be copyrighted).
