Good Tool for Support Tickets, Live Chat and Messaging
Comments: A good tool to communicate with the customers and also internal communication in Contact Center
Pros:
I like the way Zendesk is handling the Support tickets, Live chats, and messages & providing a lot of options to analyze the data on their end or extract the data via API & analyze on our end
Cons:
Lack of Option for extracting some of the data via API which is available in their website Dashboard
Good value and UI

Pros:
I do like clean and straight forward UI. I can easily CC myself in the tickets raised inside Zendesk, track and add comments into tickets and review data.

Reporting could be improved, whilst I do like clear UI would prefer it to be more modern and sleek.

It would oftentimes lag and make it a longer process then needed.

Zendesk Review
Comments: Zendesk has been solid overall. Aside from more customization when creating articles, not much more I could ask for.
Pros:
Easy to navigate. Great ticketing system.
Cons:
Would like to see more customization options when it comes to creating articles.
Useful customer ticket management software but pricey for advanced tiers!
Comments: Overall, due to the scalable nature, ability to work with third-party tools, and improving the customer interactions, a good software that can be useful.
Pros:
The awesome feature is the centralized ticketing making it so much easier for managing customer tickets.
Cons:
As you move up the advanced tiers, so does the price...can be quite hefty!
A solid live chat solution
Pros:
I like how quickly I'm able to chat with prospects and help address any questions they have. The integration with our CRM allows me to track my interactions and access existing data of the prospect & their company in one place.
Cons:
It's limited in some capabilities with automating the initial interactions and AI conversational features. I've occasionally noticed a lag time in notifications which has impacted response time.
Zendesk is a great product needing a few tweaks.
Comments: So far everything has been well with the program - no complaints other than log in issues.
Pros:
Zendesk makes it easy for us to communicate with customers.
Cons:
The program we use only allows for one person to be logged in at a time to it - possibly because it is the free trial version

Good small business program
Comments: Overall it is an ok program for a small business. Also making sure everyone is on the same page when using this system took many people in account can cause mass confusion.
Pros:
user friendly and many options for a small business
Cons:
Its a little tricky when trying to find options for voicemail and doesn't keep track of things over 90 days.
Great tool for customer engagement, but a bit expensive.
Comments: Overall average - would have been above average if not for the pricing.
Pros:
Sub-products are useful and integrated to each other. Ai has been been recently introduced as well which brings a ton of features such as ticket summarization, intent, and sentiments. The analytics is also good but lack a few things.
Cons:
Real-time dashboard - existing but cannot be customized. Tiered level of support - if you’re not a Premier Support customer then wait for a few days for a reply from their supprot team. Pricing - lots of contenders out there stepping up there games but a lot cheaper.

Best ticketing tool I have ever used!
Comments: My experience is overwhelmingly positive. The tool is reliable, stable, and extremely efficient.
Pros:
The intuitive interface, role management, and customization and automation of responses via macro are the features that made Zendesk a game changer for me and my role.
Cons:
Markdown can be tricky to use, especially if other 3rd party software for crafting text are in use. Separation between internal notes and public messages could be clearer and have better safeguards in order to send internal notes as public messages and viceversa (or a quick recall features)

Zendesk Suite, Is It Really Sweet?
Comments: So far my use with Zendesk Suite has been quite positive. No issues and its very reliable.
Pros:
I love that Zendesk Suite is a realable app that allows me to provide wonderful customer support services that my customers deserve from the beginning.
Cons:
The only disadvantage I see with Zendesk Suite is that userw with a lower pricing plan have a lot more limitations of features available.
A 5 year user of ZD
Comments: My overall experience with Zendesk Suite has been positive. The platform offers a comprehensive solution for customer support, seamlessly integrating various tools to streamline processes and enhance the overall efficiency of our support operations.
Pros:
Zendesk is user friendly and easy to navigate.
Cons:
So far, the least I like about zendesk is Complexity of Setup and Configuration.
Comprehensive platform for providing customer service, with a few features that can be improved
Pros:
It offers a lot of features such as SLAs, automations and triggers so you can customize it to your needs. It's great for a medium to large support team handling numerous tickets. Set up correctly, it's rare for tickets to fall through the cracks. The reporting features are quite robust, so your team can understand the top issues customers are experiencing, the average first reply time and a lot more. You can add apps as well that extend Zendesk's functionality such as read receipts and more.
Cons:
The email feature is somewhat lacking. It isn't possible to send test emails to yourself to check how emails look, so you have to create test tickets that trigger certain emails you've added to automations or triggers. Though they support multiple brands, you can't use a different email template for each brand. For testing automations, it would be helpful if you can select test tickets to quickly run through all of the automation conditions. Right now, it seems the only way is to set the 'hours since' to the shortest possible time (1 hour), add a test condition that only you will trigger, and create a test ticket that match the conditions, which isn't ideal.
A ticketing platform
Comments: Overall it is extremely helpful ticketing tool to make work easy by mahing automations , personal queue, managing of chats, call over one dashboard. All these things give ease to use Zendesk.
Pros:
1. Highly reliable platform for tickets, chats, and phone management. 2. Well management dashboard and UI for work and checking. 3. Highly integerable and easy to start with as well.
Cons:
1. High bandwidth is needed otherwise it shows performance issues. 2. Frequent downtime reported in past few months.

Powerful but complicated
Pros:
It’s a centralized communication and ticketing system. It allows us to keep track of customer comms and link them to specific items within our systems.
Cons:
It had quite the learning curve. It’s a sometimes complicated tool and new agents often need hand-holding when onboarding.
Alternatives Considered:
Very Advanced Customer Support Solution
Comments: We're more than happy with Zendesk as our main customer support software. We have a team of 5 - 10 support personnel altogether that mainly work with email and phone support. It logs activities automatically and sends them to our CRM with close to no issues. It's also got good performance and great uptime, and a good number of automation and customization options. Great tool overall
Pros:
The workflow recipes were a great help for us in the beginning. We knew we wanted to set up workflows for assignment and alerts, but it gave us so many more ideas for what we could automate. We have workflows for automated ticketing, routing, scheduling, etc. These also work as expected almost all the time.
Cons:
The interface is starting to get a bit old, especially compared to some of the newer support tools
Zendesk is great for Support Ticket Management
Comments: To be honest, the overall experience after using Zendesk in our department has been great! We are always on top of our metrics and this is mostly because the platform helps us run our business smoothly. Ticket Automation and being able to customize our ticket system so it can fit our specific needs is one of its best features.
Pros:
As a customer support representative, I've worked with Zendesk for over 12 months now and it's been an excellent experience. First off, I'd like to stand out for its user-friendly interface, It's very simple. I would say it's almost intuitive. Which allows you to familiarize yourself with the product right away. Additionally, since we're always trying to provide a first contact resolution, it helps that we can assign tickets to specialized agents and place a higher priority for a faster resolution.
Cons:
At this moment, I would say the biggest con that happens rarely but can happen if you do not have a potent internet connection: if the ticket is not assigned then very seldom, it will not show the agents working the ticket and both agents can post an internal note in the same ticket.

Its a good app
Comments: overall its bee. A great experience. I definitely recommend it
Pros:
its easy to use and navigate. The layout is great also.
Cons:
it does take a bit of time for them to answer
Zendesk- Pros & Cons
Comments: Overall a good tool to organize several incoming/outgoing communications in one hub
Pros:
Easy to navigate, tickets translate information clearly & can handle many users

Refresh rate can be slow, reloads often & can allow more than one user to work on the same ticket causing issues
Zendesk Suite
Pros:
A complete customer support solution. It has everything you need for a great customer support, it can be integrated with easy with most CRMs. Integrating Zendesk with a chat bot and really helps sorting the tickets/customers for a easy resolve of any issue.
Cons:
I can't say Zendesk Suite has cons, maybe the price can be a little lower ...
