Zendesk makes getting and giving support simple!

  • July 19, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite feature is it allows you to add notes (that the customer can not see) which is VERY helpful if there are going to be multiple people dealing with the customer or issue.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issue is that the ticket reopens if the customer replies "thank you" or something similar. Sometimes it runs slowly but that is expected of these softwares programs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The layout of Zendesk makes it very easy to see if a problem has not been answered or resolved. This helps to ensure no issue goes unresolved.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Allows for greater efficiency in responding to customer requests. You can respond quickly using canned emails, which is a time saver.

I am able to email the customer, send photos, videos, etc... All in one.

Zen Desk is a great support tool

  • July 13, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Zen Desk has changed over the years and it is currently a very robust and easy to work with support system. You can customize what you need so easily and pretty much whenever you need to that it makes for a great ease of use for all operators.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user facing side is a little tricky. Sometimes they think they need to log into Zen Desk or they don't reply right and you end up with a giant email quote pyramid.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Faster response time, good institutional memory since tickets never go away.

Best Help Desk Service Out There

  • July 13, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Zendesk has the ability to integrate with so many of the platforms that we're also using, plus our our API system, that we rarely have to exit the helpdesk since we can have everything push within the single platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
The servers have interruption issues more frequently than we would like, which can have a significant impact on our ability to support our customers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Zendesk, we're able to streamily our support structure so that each issue is triaged accordingly by urgency. This has allowed us the ensure major issues are resolved quickly, and has also helped us to significantly improve our FRT.

Zendesk was a lifesaver for our startup

  • July 12, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Before purchasing a Zendesk subscription, we conducted quite a bit of research on other customer support software, and nothing really came close to Zendesk. Things we love about Zendesk: the intuitiveness and robustness of their platform, which is obviously designed with their customers in mind (it's chock full of features and options, but somehow also easy to use and navigate), their reliable and always helpful customer support, their incredible speed in rolling out new features and bug fixes, and their overall dedication to making their product the best it can be.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because they are eager to roll out new features, these features are sometimes buggy at first, but they do get fixed pretty quickly. And because the platform is very complex, it's sometimes tricky to utilize all of the features to our advantage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before we switched to Zendesk, my medium-sized startup was using Gmail to communicate with hundreds of users per week. It was impossible to keep track of all of the bugs and feedback we were receiving, and we had no way of knowing whether a given user had written us before. Since making the long-overdue switch to Zendesk, we have accrued a comprehensive library of macros (stock answers to common questions), developed two self-service help centers for two of our brands, and dramatically decreased the amount of time spent on answering support emails. We've also been able to effectively track product feedback, which has been extremely helpful in informing our product roadmap.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Immerse yourself in their knowledge base and dedicate a few months to setup. It'll be worth the time investment.

Best ticketing system period

  • July 08, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite is the standard that Zendesk has set in the market so integration and their API is top notch.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes they are slow to implement new functionality that is really needed by user requests.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is our main way of taking in customer feedback, input and bugs and keeping track of support. Being able to integrate it into JIRA and our other products has given us a clear way to communicate to customers and keep them in the loop when we update our service to address their needs. Customers love to be kept in the loop and feel like their requests are heard.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want to use a tool that can be integrated and customized with a rich set of applicaitons (both 3rd party and custom) as well as a great REST API, this is the product to choose.

Productive and easy to use system

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the layout of the system and it's features. The blended apps that are offered makes things a lot less time consuming when you work with different sites.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I dislike but one improvement I would request is the ability to control incoming chats meaning the amount received at a time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Zendesk to assist our customer with a number of different needs one of which is placing order.

Most efficient CRM

  • June 30, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Zendesk hosts everything on one page - Salesforce records, case history, customer information. It's great to get everything my team needs in one place. I also love that there is a next ticket in view button, because it makes everything oh-so-efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Duplicate tickets can be a pain, but it's easy to search and merge them. It would be a lot better if they had a system for matching two identical tickets and automatically merging them. I am a team manager and I do wish the reporting was a bit better. It can be hard to search for bad behaviors that need coaching. Also, the dashboards showing tickets solved should update in real time, not hours later. It's hard to motivate my team if they have no idea how many tickets they've done, and the only way to get it to update within 30 minutes of ticket submission is to include merged tickets, tickets that are "clean up" tickets, and things that don't count towards our productivity. I do not think the Zendesk rep who came to train us was very helpful, but we managed to figure out nearly everything on our own.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With the help of Zendesk, we're able to get to our clients in a much more efficient manner. It also keeps a very good history of that customer's previous issues, so when we speak with them it can be very easy to look back on what happened and see what they have previously written about. We can build a strong repertoire with our customers, and interact with internal people better than we could with Zendesk. Being able to categorize problems by issue type has greatly helped with our reporting and letting us know where to put our efforts and how to make better business decisions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
CHECK FOR DUPES!!!

Customer service and support tickets
