Salesforce Service Cloud and Zoho Desk compete in the customer service sector. Salesforce Service Cloud excels with automation and integration, while Zoho Desk is preferred for its cost-effectiveness and deployment ease.
Features: Salesforce Service Cloud offers case routing, knowledge management, and integrations like Marketo. The Service Cloud Console enhances agent efficiency. Zoho Desk features ticket generation, customer tracking, and integrates with AWS Connect, offering ease of use and customization.
Room for Improvement: Salesforce Service Cloud needs better email integration with Outlook, improved pricing, and enhanced mobile stability. Zoho Desk could enhance IT service features, customize alerts, and adjust pricing in high exchange rate areas.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Salesforce Service Cloud supports public and hybrid deployment with varied technical support feedback. Zoho Desk offers simple deployment across public, hybrid, and private options, with generally positive customer service, though technical support for complex needs is desired.
