What differentiates Zendesk for Service from other similar products?
In addition to managing tickets, he has helped the company communicate better with our customers and other stakeholders. When it comes to internal and external customer service and support, it is invaluable and ahead of the curve. Our ability to receive, distribute and respond to tickets efficiently, as well as register customers and centralize data across the organization, has improved tremendously.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Zendesk is a great tool for managing support and assistance issues; we use it internally to address employee concerns and externally to provide better care and support to all of our customers. It has a simple user interface that doesn't overwhelm consumers.
What do you dislike most about this product?
New users can get up to speed faster if the platform would have a help module that offered lessons or step-by-step guides to more complicated functions.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Knowing Zendesk's capabilities and the value it adds to your company's service and support for both customers and employees, it's easy for me to recommend the software. Managing tickets has never been easier with this tool.

Wonderful product, large learning curve

What differentiates Zendesk for Service from other similar products?
Zendesk for Service distinguishes itself from other customer service and support platforms through its emphasis on simplicity and scalability. At its core, Zendesk offers an intuitive user interface that simplifies complex processes, making it accessible for businesses of all sizes. It also allows businesses to dip their toes into things like chatbots, AI, etc without doing away with other methods entirely.
What do you dislike most about this product?
One major drawback is the difficulty in sending bulk messages, a feature that could significantly streamline communications. Additionally, the wait times for customer support via chat can be lengthy, which can be frustrating when immediate assistance is needed. These areas, if improved, could greatly enhance the user experience.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Zendesk is a great tool and you can use some of its features easily. However, if you really want to get the bang for your buck (and it can be a lot of bucks) it will take you some searching and practice. I have been using it for around 3 years and I'm still finding new features all the time + the ones they continue to come out with.
Pros
- Reliable
- Respectful
- Acts with Integrity
- Helps Innovate

I am really enjoying this support platform
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Zendesk for Service from other similar products?
As a user, I find the support platform quite satisfactory and the activation mechanism seems fantastically adaptable and dynamic. The fact that form fields can now be searched is fantastic. For future improvements, the market is ideal. When it comes to standardizing user responses, macros are fantastic.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Both the Zendesk dashboard and support views have potential. It would be great if the online support portal could be improved to better accommodate internal requesters, who are occasionally agents, and restricted so that not just anyone could use it.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Most of our work involves helping customers with various requests, questions and technical difficulties. Agent productivity improves with easy-to-use views.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
For all of our support queries, we use the ticket dashboard. Sending an email to the support address automatically creates a new ticket in HubSpot and notifies the appropriate parties.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Reliable
- Effective Service
- Saves Time
