Zendesk will sell to anyone regardless if it isn't a good fit

  • July 22, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There really isn't anything special about Zendesk to be honest. In fact, they may be a bit too big for their britches because they do not care for those with small engagements.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support is delayed, incorrect or vague. Reporting is a total cluster unless you have the time and patience to mash together Insights, Explore and Excel. Zendesk does not stay apprised of the latest versions available for their integrations and consistently refer you back to the other vendor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Other than being a ticket management tool, there have not been any benefits. In fact, we learned recently that our use case is completely inappropriate given that Zendesk was not designed for outbound/proactive outreach to customers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Zendesk really isn't designed for small support teams nor if you perform outbound / proactive support. You also need to be ready to check the community forums and Google to get answers since Zendesk's support team generally sends out irrelevant support articles that are not helpful. Also, everything costs extra, chat, using the web widget to embed your knowledge base and everything is branded Zendesk. You also cannot call support and when you do end up connecting with a person (if escalated like I was), you are sent to their Calendly and not given a phone number. In general, Zendesk just isn't helpful. They hide behind their MSA and refuse to do the right thing which in some cases means letting a bad fit customer out of their contract.

What do you like best about the product?
It's great for communication with clients and great for one touch communication. Integration with Gmail so I can check my Gmail and see what updates are available from zendesk. I also like you can create macro templates to fill out to send to clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be at times glitchy with how different zendesk tickets are linked. Parent and child tickets should be easier to link/unlink. Sometimes, child tickets do not show up. Can be slow at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zendesk is beneficial for Getaround to speak to customers and vendors. It's used in a variety of ways to track tickets from any person or business we speak to.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Zendesk is a fabulous tool for communications but in the world of claims, it may not be the best tool to use. A user can easily get used to using the product and it's effective at what it is made for.

What do you like best about the product?
Zendesk is the best support ticketing system and customer service software. This software builds help desk, call center and the live chat software for the better customer relationships. The best thing of this software is that we can easily track the users as well as the tickets which is a great advantage. It is an excellent software for the management of our requirements and the requests. It also allows us to automate response to our customers. Zendesk is super easy to use and to communicate with different other teams is very easy. Hence this software work as the great ticketing management system.
What do you dislike about the product?
This software is a little bit expensive as compared to its competitors, but it is only expensive for the small business companies. But for us we have no problem paying for this software because the Zendesk software is so incredible to use. Sometimes distributing and the managing any ticket to any specific team is still look very difficult. But otherwise Zendesk software work as the great ticketing management system.

What do you like best about the product?
Zendesk Chat is easy to use and consistent in its delivery.
What do you dislike about the product?
The options in the left-hand menu aren't as intuitive as possible, so it is easy to lose track of which page you need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Zendesk as our first-round customer service vehicle. Zendesk allows us to serve multiple customers at once, as opposed to phone operations.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For those using Zendesk, make sure you log out when you need to get off, otherwise you will receive offline messages from trolls.

Zendesk’s search functions can sometimes pull too many queries at once.
