User-friendly and very open for customization of workflows.

What do you like best about the product?
There are a lot of built-in features for customizing your set up. You can set triggers, create macros, and organize everyone who interacts with the software by their role.

The software is easily adaptable to your workflow. You can decide how you would like your 'agents' structured- into tiers and groups- and what type of interaction each of these categories is allowed.

There are also many integrations available. For instance, we currently have Zendesk notify our team of any updates or incoming tickets in a Hipchat room. This way, they do not have to continually refresh the page to see if any tickets have come in.
What do you dislike about the product?
The verbage (what is a 'new' versus 'open' versus 'pending' ticket, etc.) take a little time to get used to and the admin console lay-out is not intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zendesk allows us to automate a lot of previous menial tasks using triggers. It is not necessary for someone to sort through hundreds of emails and forward them to who needs to see them, we can do that by recognizing key words and setting triggers to sort them for us.

In general, it's much more streamlined than providing help via email.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Know your workflow and then adapt it to Zendesk. If you are using ITIL or a more open, agile method, you can still do so, but you should have that set in stone before adapting it to Zendesk.

Great Product!

  • July 20, 2016

What do you like best about the product?
We love the integration possibilities. We have been able to integrate this with our ShoreTel phone service so phone calls are recorded and tickets are generated. We also love the customization allowed for tracking and classifying ticket.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do find it difficult to reply internally from my cell...that piece is easier to do from my laptop.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We track all support activities. Having the ability to track the information, have access to it later, search tickets, create reports, and integrate with our other existing technology has been great.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take full advantage of the customization and integration possibilities.

ZenDesk from the Admin View

  • July 20, 2016

What do you like best about the product?
Very powerful and flexible. Many things can be accomplished if you are a outside the box thinker. We lean on this heavily for customer support, workflow and over organization. Also the fact that there is a 3rd party app store is what really makes this tool shine. Integrate with the other daily tools you work wth and everything seems a bit easier!
What do you dislike about the product?
They are becoming very corporate. It used to seem like they were much more in tune with their customers, used their feedback to make their products better. But not it seems like they really are paying less attention to their customers. They have frequent outages, however they are quick to diagnose and fix.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Customer support in a timely fashion. We've realized there are many things that can be done through escalations, voicemail responses etc...We solve many of our business problems with ZeNDesk
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is not the cheapest tool out there however, it is very powerful. The ability to integrate and even build private apps (which we have built 2 apps specifically for our use) has really made ZenDesk even more powerful. Time tracking down to the second and SSO from our user database makes the whole process seamless for our customers.

Great for Small Businesses

  • July 18, 2016

What do you like best about the product?
Seemless integration with email and zopim. Very easy to access and manage tickets.
What do you dislike about the product?
Email attachments are a huge problem, especially if you're not running Pro. Could be easily fixed if software could access the clients email server instead of forwarding everything to Zendesk's email servers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Orginizing customer interactions and consolidating communications into one platform
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great if you need a low cost support ticket system. If your company relies heavily on sending files to customers, or multiple users you will need the Pro package. But other than that its a great package.

Zendesk CS: Good for Growth

  • July 17, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The customization options through the backend are very kind to large companies/departments. The ability to tune the entire ecosystem has helped us serve our customers well.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface can become jumbled, and you do need an expert running ops if you want a truly customized experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With a large scale operation, it's always best to have a software base that can keep up with growth, which Zendesk can do.

What do you like best about the product?
Zendesk is very easy to use and track support logs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Views could be better. Allowing each support agent to customize the look of what they see could be cool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Have been able to quickly help customers.

Zendesk. Ever changing.

  • July 15, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Zendesk is relatively easy to use. Tickets are able to be sorted, and your reopens go to you instead of back into a pool to be responded by an entirely different person. Chat and phone support are easily accessible.
What do you dislike about the product?
Zendesk feels the need to constantly change things, even minor things like font. If it aint broke, don't fix it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I solve technical problems for our clients as well as our freelancers, while also providing general information on our company to those who need it.

Zendesk simplifies my job

  • July 13, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I do a lot of user support for my job using Zendesk. My favorite thing is that we have multiple methods of getting contacted by our users all going to one place. Moreover, I can reply from that one place and each user gets their response in the expected way. People text me a question, Zendesk texts them back. People send an email to support, Zendesk emails them back. It saves me from having to check for messages in a million places and then trying to remember where each one was when I want to find it later.

I also like being able to manage tickets from multiple devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really like any of the existing features. I wish there was a way to star certain tickets so I could find them later if I needed to without having to search. Everything eventually ends up in one big group, which can be frustrating.

I feel like it is a lot easier to use Zendesk on my computer than the tablet or Android options. It is nice to have those when I can't get to my computer, but it always frustrates me just a little when I use the mobile version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Zendesk to manage customer and user support coming in through multiple platforms. Being able to do this easily makes my responses faster, decreases my overall stress, and prevents me from missing someone's issue.

Zendesk Review

  • July 13, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Zendesk makes it easy to manage requests from customers and agents. By adding tags and categorizations, our team can divide and conquer based on ticket content. It's a relatively flexible system that adapts well for different needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
My main issue is with the servers, which seem to have fairly frequent issues. I also don't like that you can't unmerge two tickets that have accidentally been merged together. That seems like such as basic feature, yet ZD doesn't allow it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are interacting with our internal and external customer bases, making it easy for them to get the answers they need in a relatively short time. The ability to thread and categorize makes it a much more efficient system than email.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be aware of the system limitations, but generally speaking it's a very good Help Center and chat system.

Zendesk Review

  • July 13, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of communicating with team members AND customers on one platform. Nice to easily track tickets and users.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really don't like the fact that I can't create customized hyperlinks in the tickets. I would like it to work more like Gmail where I can highlight a word or phrase and create the hyperlink.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Day to day operations, making sure customers needs are being met, identifying any bugs or issues within our system from the feedback we receive.
