As a software consultant, I see Zendesk used daily in various industries. From customer service to ITSM, Zendesk offers a flexible, scalable solution for SMBs through enterprise organizations. My favorite use case is seeing businesses with many FAQs enable self-service through Zendesk's various channels to reduce the mundane questions end-users offer, freeing agents up for higher-value conversations. We often see Zendesk Support (Email/Web), Messaging (Chat), Phone, and Guide installed, with a separate focus on Explore Dashboards. Zendesk invests heavily in AI, helping adapt the product to evolving customer needs.
  • Self-Service.
  • Organizing Inbound Communication.
  • Tracking & Reporting Of Customer Requests.
Zendesk works best when you have end users reaching out to a dedicated team of support reps. Leveraging AI & Bots to help gain efficiency comes naturally to Zendesk. Teams that rely on dedicated support from an individual tend to struggle more, pushing against the theme of democratized support. Teams that do a lot of outbound communication generally find challenges with things like reporting on SLAs unless they are at the enterprise level. Works great for startups and non-profits alike!

Zendesk is a very capable ticketing system. We used it to service the IT needs of 10+ companies. Anyone with an IT related requested would email us at a specific address, which would generate a ticket.

Our dispatcher would then correspond with the user, get more information, deadlines for the request, etc and then they would assign the ticket to a team member to address.

At certain points, we began to really customize Zendesk to cater our specific needs and it worked very well.
  • Interfacing with users
  • Assigning tasks to team members
  • Managing all pending requests
It's a great base ticketing system for any IT related team. I would greatly recommend it to companies that just need a one software solution. However, if you need to incorporate several add-ins to Zendesk to get it to work, I wouldn't recommend it as this slows it down severely.

Highly Recommend ZenDesk

I've been using ZenDesk Suite for over 7 years now. It makes my communication with my customers and potential customers very simple and scaleable.

We primarily use inbound text and email. Customers really like being able to simply text in and get a response within minutes. My team loves the mobile app and being able to reply to messages quickly anywhere they are using th iOS App. I can easily monitor communications between our support reps and customers to ensure the best experience for everyone.

We have probably 10 different email addresses mostly for our backend support that ZenDesk Suite easily distributes into different "views" or I would call folders. This allows our processors to very easily track inbound messages and follow up accordingly.

ZenDesk Suites makes it simple to make outbound calls using our primary text number when customers request to speak to someone. One thing we can't do which I hope changes is being able to initiate these calls from the iOS App.

One other thing that after a long time asking is apparently coming later this year (Q3 2024) is being able to initiate a text conversation using our primary number. Right now we are only able to reply to inbound messages and when they close out we can no longer text the customer until they text back in and start a new conversation.

All in all it is a great product, I would recommend to anyone who wants to make their communication with clients/customers simple and scalable. I couldn't imagine my business without ZenDesk Suite.
  • Inbound Text
  • Inbound Email
  • Outbound Phone Calls
Inbound messaging it is top notch, it does it well and couldn't imagine anyone's program doing it better. Like I said before been using ZenDesk for over 7 years and absolutely love it.

We use the talk feature with the phone very limited so Zen works fine for us, but if I was running an inbound or outbound call center I don't believe Zen has all the functions I would want as a manager.

For limited phone use and mostly email, text, and even web chat, ZenDesk works great. Having the iOS App is so great and flexibility with notifications allows my team to be "on call" anytime without unnecessary interruptions.

Zendesk Suite is a great starter ticket support option!

We use it to bring all of our customer service emails into one platform. We are only using the support and explore feature currently as we are not ready for the other products. Before we were working strictly out of a shared mailbox which made it hard to address customer concerns and there were no SLAs around that. We were not giving high quality customer service.
  • Statuses for support tickets
  • SLA's
  • Reporting
  • Easy to use interface
  • tagging of tickets
I think Zendesk Suite is a great product for small to medium businesses. It is easy to use but may take some time for a team to adopt if they have never used customer service support software before. I would not recommend it for ITSM software needs as it doesn't have all the capabilities you would want in an ITSM software. Good for basic customer interactions.

We use Zendesk exclusively as a ticketing system for our support clients. It allows us to keep track of multiple tickets spread across multiple clients. We also use previously solved tickets as reference for new tickets. Rather than having to solve the same problem multiple times, it is much easier to locate the same problem in a previous ticket and use that solution for reference.
  • It allows multiple agents to access different tickets
  • It allows different permissions to be set for both clients and agents
  • There are configurable views of open tickets available
  • There is a search function
  • There is basic markdown support
Zendesk used to be potentially the world's greatest ticketing system in my opinion. It's still not a bad ticketing system but there seems to be an increasing amount of scope creep to add more functions. Now it seems to try to get a much wider range of users with a much fluffier idea of what it is trying to be. For a multi-client, multi-agent setup, it does the job reasonably well. This is ideal for B2C usage and used to be very good for B2B users. If you are looking for something in house Zendesk is overkill in my experience. Go find something off the shelf with a one time purchase license instead and your CFO will thank you.

I strongly think that Zendesk Suite is the best way to go if you are a small to mid-size organization that needs any kind of ticketing system, if this is talking about technical or even finance, you can create a ticketing system in one night. The UI is just the best I have seen, I really recommend using it, and it is a blast to use. It costs quite a lot, but you get what you pay for.
  • Ticketing system
  • Communicating with customers
  • Internal tickets
If my colleague is starting his/her ticketing journey, I would totally recommend Zendesk Suite because if you start using Zendesk Suite and you take good care that your data is aligned, you can be very successful and in very minimal time, you can easily connect it with mail and other mechanisms.

We use Zendesk to route all customer communications to relevant CSMs, deployment team members, and the finance department. The communications range anywhere from simple support requests to managing client expansions and upsells. We rely heavily on cross team collaboration to ensure we are providing the best service possible to customers by removing barriers to communication both externally and internally. Zendesk is a great tool to helping us achieve and maintain these goals.
  • Triggers - we're able to automate a significant amount of tasks and repetitive work by relying on Zendesk's flexible trigger options.
  • Macros - The ability to create complex message templates with autofilled information is a significant time saver.
  • Collaboration - since Zendesk implemented more transparent communication controls for CC contacts we're able to have more effective communication with customers and relevant stakeholders. This was a much appreciated improvement.
Zendesk is most appropriate in environments where managing external communication with single or multi unit teams is a requirement. It's also ideal in a high volume customer centric environment especially when automation and self help articles are a major part of driving success for a support team.

It would be less appropriate for companies and teams who require some sort of customer management solution. It's great for keeping up with customer requests, but it's not ideal for maintaining a database about customer details.

Zendesk the easiest tool that helped us reach our goal in a blink of an eye!

We used to have all customer conversations- tickets there, all their issues would come on in order of arrival for us to self-signing the tickets for each one and resolve it as we go. The latest reports will always show up at the very top of the page and the older one at the very end of the pages, depending on the amount of tickets the number of pages would change.
  • Very easy to use
  • Be able to open more than page at a time
  • Be able to work 2-3 cases at a time with no freeze
we were really happy using Zendesk Support Suite as there was a high amount of upcoming tickets the ability for us to have assigned and work in more than 3 different tickets at a time helped us to lower the volume of pending cases and it helped us to meet the client goal. Which pretty much was more than we expected. Our agents were talking about it the whole month!

Zendesk Portal makes it easy for us in our day-to-day operations. We at Rapidops use the following suite of Products for the Zendesk Support suite - support, Guide, Gather, Chat, and Explore.
We have hosted our support portal for articles and videos for one of our customer relationship management tool. We are also using Zendesk as our help ticketing system integrated with our internal platform on a daily basis.

  • Ticket Management
  • Help Portal Hosting
  • Chat / Messenger Feature
The ability to Merge tickets is a good to have feature. Navigation is easy from one ticket to another ticket without having to go back to the list.
Admin options should be more clear, internal menu navigation is complex and creates more confusion while arranging the sections and articles.
Channel Management is good but Forum management can be brought in with more flexibility. More Apps integration or flexibility in APIs so that a newbie can also integrate the application into the software.
A redundant software that brings in 360-degree communication of support/service concepts into practicality however if the option to compile texting with platforms like ringcentral, Twilio or Dialpad will be an awesome thing to share ticket updates with custom templates.

The company I work for is [...}, we are a SaaS company that offers a trading platform for other Companies to manage their individual employee stock options/equity compensation plans. Our clients are big organizations and the employees of those plans are considered to be participants of the employee stock plan. We currently use Zendesk to communicate with the client's stock plan admin as well as participants of the stock plan. Most of what I deal with are participants who have questions and inquiries related to their personal accounts such as account statements, password resets, questions about current status of their funds.
  • Really good find and search options, easy to search for a participants email
  • I'm able to find a consolidated history of all the interactions each participant had in the past with us
  • Able to save responses for the rest of the employees can use as a generic response to certain FAQ. For example if a participant wants to know how to exercise their options, we have a saved paragraph that goes through step by step of how to exercise options or to sell stocks they have and a guide on how to do this in a saved response.
I love the saved templates that was created. Most of our inquiries are people asking's for steps on doing a password reset, how to sell shares, how to print their statement or find their statements, generic questions about tax information. Because so much of the questions is similar in nature the pre-saved templates save a lot of time. Especially when most of our inbound emails have similar questions and any of our agents can answer the questions with a professionally written statement or guide that's aligned with the company.

I had cases of other employees closing cases when they should not have been closed and it's frustrating that we can't reopen a case.

I use Zendesk Support Suite to track and review customer support cases, create customer support dashboards to track case metrics and create and publish knowledge base articles.
  • Real time support case management
  • Instant support article creation and publishing
  • Easy support metric dashboard creation
Zendesk integrates easily with other services we use in our enterprise. Zendesk is also easy to use out of the box. The overall look and feel of Zendesk UI could benefit from a refresh.

Zendesk Support Suite is used as our main tool for handling customer support enquiries. We also utilise Zendesk Guide as our public-facing Knowledge Base to allow customers to self-help before contacting our team.

We have also implemented the Zendesk Widget within our app to allow customers access to the guides and to our support form without needing to leave our app.
  • Integrates well with other tools
  • Simple user interface
  • Multi-channel
  • Great API
Zendesk is great at handling conversations with multiple participants in the same ticket - the UI displays everything clearly. You can also integrate with other tools, and write your own apps so you can pull data from other systems (or update other systems) without the support agent leaving the UI.

I think live chat scenarios - this doesn't suit Zendesk well, especially if you want to use the API to retrieve the messages. All of the chat messages appear as one entry in Zendesk which isn't helpful if you want to do analytics.

Always a good decision with Zendesk!

Due to the initial set up of using Tags for reporting, there was a lack of helpful and timely reporting, lack of dashboards for key management to stay in loop. Once we created the needed custom fields, reporting and dashboards were set up to aid the various teams, managers and executives so they can more quickly identify top product or software issues to resolve.
  • Reporting and Analytics
  • Ease of Agent Training and Use
  • Able to add multiple brands with related custom reports and dashboards
  • Adding a new brand and basic help center is easy to do without the need of an expert or web team
  • Ability of agents and supervisors to see customer history across multiple channels
It's well suited for any young company or expanding company (mid size) with limited resources for set up and system admin. It is a great CX tool which is integrated with Shopify for ecommerce support. Agents will not need a Shopify license if they need to make an address change, can or refund the customer's order.

Zendesk Suite is THE go to platform to manage the relationship with each and every customer. (Externally and internally). We used it to document each interaction, efficiently organize our support strategy and set everyone up for success all at the same time. Once you got the swing of things, it was provided away to minimize the opportunity for error when it came to support cases, equipment orders and detailed customer relationship management. Typical use included identifying each customer, being able to view their history, utilizing compatibility between other mission critical platforms (Shopify, Dialpad, Asana...) to make for a seamless experience for all customers (external and internal again).
  • Being customizable to the needs of each business.
  • Providing awesome integration between mission critical platforms such as Shopify, Dialpad and Asana.
  • Maintaining a detailed history of customer interaction to set everyone up for success.
  • The ability to eliminate duplicate efforts (HUGE)
A specific scenario at [...] would be when someone would call in and we'd find out that they had several different contact profiles living in our database. Once we were able to identify which one had the most relevant information, it gave us an opportunity to consolidate duplicate accounts or cases to prevent any confusion moving forward. This was always a huge challenge for me in the beginning, but luckily now I'm able to help set our other/newer team members up for success and make for a better customer experience.

ZSS allows my team and I to effectively connect with clients, while keeping all correspondence for that person in an easy-to-access file. We use call, SMS, and email for all of our clients so it's super important that we have a reliable system to do that from. It also addresses the ability to effectively store and organize correspondence.
  • Organization
  • Ease of use
  • Call transferring
  • Clean layout
There's no times where I think ZSS would be inappropriate. I really like the system and how it so easily allows my team and I to share ideas and solutions on internal notes, the many different options for compartmentalizing tickets that are no longer being worked on or ones that you need to remember to follow-up with, how it creates a log for each contact, and shows in chronological order all of the tickets you've done for the day.

We use it for our ticketing system. This allows organization of our ongoing issues, and an easy way to divide the tickets into separate departments. From there users can see current issues from our clients, update the tickets as needed, or even call to the client through Zendesk with high quality audio.
  • Easy management of new users
  • Calling
  • General Support
In most cases, we use Zendesk to track ongoing tickets or issues. Most of our clients will submit a ticket through email and it will automatically populate in our queue. Once a ticket is received, we will get an email letting us know a new ticket has come in. From there a call can be made to the client to help with the issue. Once resolved, we can close out the ticket.

We use Zendesk Support Suite as our platform for end user-facing support and servicing. That includes incoming and outgoing emails, phone calls, as well as a knowledge base. It was really important to be able to link various methods of communication to the specific end user, which Zendesk allows us to do without much of a hassle!
  • outbound communications
  • Importing contacts/end users
  • Automated actions (closing tickets, auto replies)
  • Multi-channel support simultaneously
Zendesk has adequate features for most small to midsize businesses and does have a lot of room for customization and using workarounds to make it work for what you need.
The ability to turn it into an all-in-one solution for all departments is lacking, which is unfortunate because it makes the support aspect less valuable as a result.

Suite allows us a full view of the consumer experience and yields actionable dashboard reports to aid our marketing, sales, product, operation, and quality assurance teams. It's easy to set up and evolve over time as business needs change. Zendesk Support is timely and helpful when we have any system admin questions or issues.
  • Easy to set up Reports and Dashboard reports by brand.
  • Easy to train agents and light users on how to use.
  • Fast and helpful support to customers using Zendesk.
  • Helpful to view a customer's multi-channel inquiries (tickets).
  • Lots of API and 3rd party integration options.
Well suited for multi-channel support with a reasonable cost per license. Good for ecommerce support (e.g., Shopify integration). General reporting is easy to set up after setting up custom fields.

We used Zendesk primarily to receive, work and follow up with customer's tickets. Zendesk helped our organization manage customer inquiries very efficiently in a fast-paced environment. Customer Satisfaction Surveys were a big plus because they allowed us to see where our team needed to improve. Lots of configuration was required to get it running perfectly, but in the end, it was worth it.
  • Customer Satisfaction Statistics.
  • Ticket Management.
  • Shopify integration.
  • Reduced downtime.
It is great for small startup companies and even big companies. Zendesk support sometimes lacks speed but they seemed to solve issues quickly once they get a grip on it. Might not be on everyone's budget, especially with small start-ups. Overall, I was happy to work with Zendesk and it was very easy to use and learn.

Zendesk allows our customers to efficiently submit support requests both from our web-based cloud portal and our mobile app. Our support agents can quickly respond to inquiries and view ticket history to better understand the context of an issue. It has been critical that we are able to embed this into our apps as a support channel.
  • mobile SDK
  • web-app SDK
  • ticket history
  • stats on response times
Well suited for any SaaS where you have end-users who need support. We have also implemented automated macro processes to bump bump solve tickets that sit dormant for too long.
the fact that we can also search old tickets quickly to understand the user's history and their past tickets is quite nice for us.

Zendesk is our tool to centralize all the requests coming from clients. These could be tickets about features not working, removed, added, request for help, or even feature requests. The tickets are essential also for the Customer Success team to figure out the level of client satisfaction, to be discussed during the QBRs.
  • centralize all clients' requests
  • perceive the level of satisfaction of the client with our product
  • collect all the feature requests for the PM to categorize them
  • keep track of the product issues
The ticket management is outstanding. By creating views is super easy to categorize the tickets, for instance, by clients, industry, support package, and so on.
I particularly like the integration capabilities, especially with Slack, where we trigger a message in a dedicated channel every time a new ticket is opened. This ensures the right level of visibility for the Customer Success people.
The knowledge base manager is very good.
The reporting tool is complicated to use and limited at times, but in the end it does its job.

We use it for several ways, to support real estate agents across the US by utilizing Zendesk via email, chat, and voice. We employ the usual ticketing system to answer and address issues submitted by real estate agents. It is also handy as a real-time chat application where they can easily send messages to us by using the CRM platform.
  • email customer support
  • chat customer support
  • voice customer support
  • macro usage
  • zendesk reporting
  • tag usage
Zendesk support is tops for customer support usage, where one can quickly tend to agent concerns using a variety of channels, be it be by email, chat/messaging, or voice. Reporting is a breeze, especially monitoring in real-time team members who are currently logged in. There's also a feature in Zendesk talk where you can monitor calls, even "barge" when required to help an associate.

We use Zendesk support to run the front line support requets, triage tickets and manage our customers/users day to day support and bug reporting. At Rex we are a CRM system for Real Estate agents so have a wide range of inbound contacts that ranages from 'where do I find this PDF file' to 'my system is down and I am needing to handle the transfer of $5mil today'.
this prioritisation is the the primary problem/biz case it addresses.
  • Ticket updates internal and external (to clients)
  • Reporting on workload for Customer care agents
  • Reporting on productivity of customer care agents
  • Canned responses
Zendesk is very good on the canned responses and the day to day recurring problems. The reporting on both customer care agent workload and their productivity is very good and easily feeds our KPI environment.
