Macros and automation have streamlined workflows and reduced manual effort across support teams
The ability to communicate on the Zendesk ticket through the actual user software, so TOPs, would have been helpful. Somehow seeing a user's ticket history within our app would have been beneficial. That is the only thing that I do not think existed at the time that might have been helpful. Some people struggled with Zendesk, but it was always easy enough to show them how to use it and what they were missing. The only times we really had people report concerns about it was when they did not understand that it could do that or how to use it in that way.

A knowledge management software that provides great scalability options to its users
Right now, I work for a company that sells products like access control systems, time attendants, telecoms, and CCTVs for video surveillance. My company needs to contact the concerned people of companies in the USA and Canada who would like to purchase our products. Our company is in India, so we want the directories which are being used in the USA to be able to trace potential buyers of our products. I recommend the solution to those planning to use it. Due to some loading-related issues, we have faced with the solution in our company, I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"All companies with high standards should use Zendesk because it's a reliable tool, constantly improving the old features and also bringing new ones on the market, in accordance to their customers’ needs."
"The benefits I have seen from using Zendesk include faster response times; as a CSM, faster response is the goal, which solves the customer's challenge in a timely manner, and Zendesk offers that capability, which is beneficial."
"It is a scalable solution."
"It helps us save costs, time, and energy, and it improves the relationship with my customers."
"As per my experience Zendesk is a very impressive, efficient and convenient web based help desk application."
"We were able to get up and running with Zendesk in a very short time and build a robust web app including help desk functionality that makes the product owner and client very happy."
"Its agility and simplicity are the most valuable features. This tool is very user-friendly."
"We receive less questions from customers, so this is a big win for our support."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"Many channel inquiries are not possible to collect into a single interface."
"Zendesk's stability on inbound calls could be improved as compared to Talkdesk."
"It is easy to use, however, it is not quite as powerful as many other ticketing systems out there."
"The more customization you do, the slower it will be. Maybe this could be improved."
"It needs to improve in terms of its flexibility, price, and installation."
"I would like to see improvement in the "trigger" sections and "macros" as well."
"We work in print so being able to preview files attached and having larger files (larger than 7MB would be great) would be a welcomed improvement."
"You couldn't give administrative access to new hires."
"The solution's stability is an area with shortcomings that need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"From what I hear, Zendesk's pricing is a little expensive."
"We pay for the solution on a yearly basis and my understanding is that the cost is about $30,000. That's the cost for 24 to 25 agents."
"Zendesk's licensing is not cheap. For Enterprise, we are paying $200 per agent. It's a per-month cost, so it's pretty steep. There are some services you need to pay extra for. For example, with Zendesk Guide, we had to buy the most expensive offering in order to get Multibrand and everything. We also had to pay a lot of money for themes."
"You have to pay extra for better support. So it's not only the license that you pay for, but you have to pay extra for the support as well."
"There are different plans that are offered. We are using the entry-level plan. The overall price of the solution should be reduced. The price is too high."
"The price is very competitive."
"There is a need to make payments towards the licensing costs of the solution."
