Zendesk is a good helpdesk with many features

What differentiates Zendesk for Service from other similar products?

It's a great cloud application with great uptime, and it streamlines our job while we're doing live chat with customers to resolve a specific issue. For my team and myself, automating the ticketing process is the ideal solution. When a ticket is created, an automatic email is sent to the client, and when it is resolved or closed, another email is sent to the customer.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We are really pleased with the Zendesk platform. Since then, we've seen an increase in the quality of service we provide to our customers. I particularly appreciated the ease with which a new manager or technician could be added to the system without requiring a significant overhaul of the dashboard.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Even though I appreciated the functionality and automation, I had to spend a lot of time figuring out how to use the dashboard. This application's pricing is too expensive for an early company since it has functionality that they may not require.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Many Customer Support options are available using this program. WordPress, Jira, and Salesforce all work seamlessly with it. Detailed reporting dashboards may be found on each page. As a whole, Zendesk is a fantastic helpdesk that can handle a large client base and keep track of issues and complaints while on the road.

Pros

Helps Innovate
Performance Enhancing
Enables Productivity

Fantastic platform with great set of features

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates Zendesk for Service from other similar products?

The reporting features, the number of apps which it can integrate with.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I mostly love how easy is to navigate and the fact that it allows each agent to customize their view and have custom views set-up which would enable agents to be much more productive and organize their dashboard the way they like it.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I have to download an attachment that was initially attached to the ticket in order to re-attach it.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Play around with it and depending on your business size and needs, I'd give Zendesk a try.

Pros

Helps Innovate
Reliable
Enables Productivity

What differentiates Zendesk for Service from other similar products?

It's very easy to convert chat, email, and social media requests into tickets.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

How easy it is to integrate requests into tickets, especially social media requests.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I often forget that I am reading a "live" tweet or "DM" because the changes are almost not visible unless you actively look for them. There should be a better way to differentiate what type of ticket we are looking at to avoid issues.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Works great and has a plethora of features that will help you have control over every single aspect of the customer interaction.

Efficient Service
