From the beginning, UI was confusing, it was a touch hard to look for the features. I want to have multiple shoppers and distinguish between them. I didn’t skills to do it, I used to be confused between organizations and brands. Brands are hidden in the admin center, Organizations are within the support center view.

Smooth, simple interface—can simply switch between different options (email responses, reporting, live chat, etc). can start fairly quickly with only a little quantity of training. With the correct subscription tier, access to technical support is quick and efficient.

A fantastic tool for customer-focused teams

What differentiates Zendesk for Service from other similar products?
We were able to reduce the number of customer service reps we needed to hire, which helped us save money, and the Zendesk Support Suite's Customer Community feature helped us get more involved with our customers and keep them as customers for the long haul. When it comes to building communities and sharing knowledge, Zendesk is unparalleled. It provides several preconfigured structures for classifying data.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It's cheaper than major alternatives like Khoros Communities, but it doesn't provide all of the functionality that our clients need right now, such as user rankings and gamification or the ability to easily adapt the platform's structure to meet their needs. Although it excels in communities with a modest number of users, it also has the potential to excel in those with a much larger user base.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The default behavior of combining tickets is to make the merged ticket a public comment. The consumer is likely to become confused after hearing this remark. In order to prevent sending a client a note that may be confusing or unneeded, the agent should uncheck the public comment boxes before completing the merging.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
You should use Zendesk if you need to manage external communication for a single or several teams. In a high-traffic, customer-centric setting, where automation and self-help articles play an important role in the success of the support staff, it's also a great fit.
Pros
- Efficient Service
- Saves Time
- Transparent
- Friendly Negotiation
