Structured, Reliable, and Scalable Customer Support Platform
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Zendesk for customer service is how structured and reliable it is for handling customer issues at scale. When many tickets are coming in from email, chat, or web forms, Zendesk keeps everything organized in one place; nothing gets lost, and every conversation has a clear history. Another thing I really like is how mature and stable the platform feels. It's clearly built for real production use. Once workflows are set up, things run smoothly without constant babysitting. From a backend developer's point of view, the APIs and integration are a big plus. Zendesk works well with internal tools, CRM, and databases. I can sync tickets, users, and events with our backend system without hacks. I also like the automation and triggers. Tickets can be routed, tagged, proportioned, and escalated automatically. This reduces manual work for the support team and keeps response times consistent.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I dislike about Zendesk is that it can become expensive as the team grows. Adding agents and advanced features increases costs quickly, which can be hard for startups or smaller teams. Another downside is that configuration can get complex. Triggers, automations, views, and workflows are powerful, but over time they become difficult to manage if not documented well. The UI, while functional, can feel heavy and slow when handling a large number of tickets. It's not always the fastest experience for agents. Customization also has limits; while Zendesk covers most use cases, very specific workflows sometimes require workarounds or custom apps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zendesk for customer service solves the problem of chaotic and unscalable customer support. Without a dedicated system, customer messages come from everywhere—emails, contact forms, and chats—and it becomes impossible to track who responded, what was promised, or what is still pending. Zendesk centralizes all communication into structured tickets, which bring order to the chaos. It also solves the problem of missed or delayed responses. With SLA automations and priority rules, tickets are handled on time. This directly improves customer satisfaction and reduces frustration on both sides. From a backend developer perspective, Zendesk helps bridge the gap between support and engineering. Tickets can be enriched with logs, user IDs, metadata, and links to internal systems. This makes debugging real customer issues much faster and more accurate. Another big benefit is visibility and accountability. I can clearly see ticket volume, response time, backlog, and team performance. It helps make better decisions about staffing, product improvements, and system stability. Zendesk also reduces context switching. Support teams don't need to jump between tools, and developers don't need to chase information. Everything related to an issue lives in one place. It improves customer communication quality. Canned responses, macros, and templates ensure consistent and clear replies even when multiple agents are involved. Zendesk also helps with scalability. As the product grows and the user base increases, Zendesk can handle higher ticket volumes without changing the support process or tools. Another important benefit is the feedback loop to product development, repeated issues, bug reports, or feature requests are visible in Zendesk data. This helps the engineering and product teams prioritize real user pain points instead of guessing. So Zendesk benefits me by making support organized, measurable, and tightly connected to the product and backend system. It reduces noise, improves response quality, and helps teams work together more effectively in production environments.
Keeps Us Organized and Productive with a Clean, User-Friendly Interface
What do you like best about the product?
Zendesk is great because it keeps all customer messages in one place, making it easy to stay organized. And I really like how simple it is to track tickets and reposdone to the customer quickly. I also like the interface; it is clean, which helps my team to stay productive throughout the day without getting confused.
What do you dislike about the product?
I noticed that the main downside is that some of the advanced settings can be hard to find and take time to learn. Also, if you want to add extra features or more users, the cost can start to get expensive for a smaller business. I also experience that sometimes reporting tools feel a bit limited unless you upgrade.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zendesk for Customer Service - Ac solves my problem of scattered customer messages by bringing every interaction into one easy-to-manage inbox. This benefits me by speeding up my response times and allowing us to help more customers without needing a larger team.
Efficient Ticketing and Reporting Features Enhance Workflow
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the straightforward ticketing workflow, as well as the groups feature included in the system. Additionally, the reports it generates are quite useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Most of the support comes from the US team, and the pricing is set in USD, which makes it quite expensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me manage my tasks and set priorities, making it easier to focus on what needs to be done. Closing tickets also assists in keeping track of the overall process.
Ticket tracking has centralized email support but remains confusing to manage and organize
What is our primary use case?
I have been using Zendesk for approximately five years now.
I use Zendesk for keeping track of emails and customer tickets. Whenever a customer has issues or questions about our product, they email our support email, which comes through Zendesk, and that is how we triage all of our tickets.
I was able to use Zendesk to respond to an email from a customer who could not log in. They reached out, and I was able to use Zendesk with the macros and the different fields available to respond to the customer as well as track which company it was.
We also have different internal users use Zendesk. However, it is quite difficult to delete users. We use Zendesk to track which companies or clients are submitting help desk cases and how many they are submitting.
What is most valuable?
The features I find most valuable are the different states available: pending and active, and I believe we can add other ones. I also really appreciate macros.
When we have issues, we also use Jira, and we have different macros that we have set up that let the customer know that we have submitted a Jira ticket and sent it to our engineering team. We also use macros for basic greetings if an email has come through that we have not messaged with before.
What needs improvement?
I wish there was a more easily dynamic tool. Currently, it is quite difficult because not all the tools are labeled. A feature that would be beneficial is if hovering over an icon would tell you what it does. Additionally, a feature to easily remove users who have left the company and no longer use Zendesk would be helpful.
Zendesk is able to track tickets, and I believe that is the main strength.
Tracking tickets does help, and it is nice to know which state they are in. However, it is difficult to find specific conversations. Once you put a ticket in different states, it is nice to know if you can find the ticket. We go through thousands of tickets, and when trying to find a specific conversation, searching for a keyword does not always work. It is helpful if you know exactly what ticket it is to see that one has a Jira ticket submitted, that one is open, that one is pending, or that one has been solved.
The organization of the tickets is quite confusing. We try to have a list organized by date, but it does not always filter correctly. We have been quite frustrated lately with Zendesk, to the point where we are actually considering switching to different software that is more intuitive and better organized.
I would rate my satisfaction with Zendesk at a three or four. We have had so many different things that we have tried to do. We use Zapier with Zendesk, and that works. However, I believe it comes down to the basic functions of organization, deletion, and management of users. It is not as intuitive as we would prefer it to be, so I would rate it at a three.
The main issues are down to the organization and management of users, as well as the organization of tickets and the management of users.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working in my current field for about seven months. Before that, I completed a degree in information systems.
What was our ROI?
Time saved is definitely a benefit because it puts all of our tickets in one spot. Depending on which email it is, we can have all the emails forwarded to Zendesk. However, as for money saved, probably not.
What other advice do I have?
I would have them make sure that it is something they want to get into because there are definitely some pros, but at the same time, there are definitely some cons. It is not as intuitive as you would expect it to be. However, if you are willing to sit down and take considerable time and most probably spend time with support, you would likely be able to figure it out. If you are looking for a system that handles everything intuitively with easy to get cheaper licenses, Zendesk probably is not the one you would want to go with.
Currently, we only have a few licenses because it is just so expensive. With the value that we are getting out of it with the few licenses we have, we are not really impressed by it. It seems a bit too much.
We have not explored other options. We do not have any other relationships, as we just use Zendesk.
There may be opportunities with discounts or additional licenses. I do not know at this point. We are looking for maybe some way to stay with Zendesk, but currently, it just does not seem fitting for what we need. My overall rating for this product is three out of ten.
