"The most valuable features of the SugarCRM platform include its flexibility in customizing fields, layouts, and dashboards."
"The feature to move over my customer experience team tickets for different specialists is very valuable for my team."
"One of the most valuable features is the ease of use. If you take the standalone product, it is so easy to use, but if you want a tailor-made Zendesk Guide, you can't do it yourself. However, you can use a template that already exists—they have a lot, and they're very cheap, around 300-400 euros—and use it on all your brands. It's a very easy product to use."
"The initial setup is simple and straightforward."
"It is very easy to connect back and forth between the requester and the person fulfilling the ticket."
"It's very convenient to use."
"Its agility and simplicity are the most valuable features. This tool is very user-friendly."
"The stability has been very good."
"What is cool about Zendesk Guide is how it works together with others Zendesk products. Especially with support and with the analytics. Put those together for a small or medium-sized company and it's a really powerful tool."
"Sugar Enterprise could improve by removing bugs and glitches. For example, a comment was made but in the comment section, it was never displayed. However, the problems we faced might not be the fault of the solution."
"In the next release, I would like to see personalization of information about customers or specific businesses or opportunities."
"It lacks customization, and this is the main reason that we are switching to a different solution."
"You cannot include all your entities under one instance at the moment."
"While it is already user-friendly, a slight enhancement in UI design, especially in terms of color combinations, could make the platform more visually appealing and comfortable to use."
"I would like to see more integration on a mobile platform in the next release."
"The dashboard could be better."
"The support team is time-consuming, and they don't find the answer to our problem."
"They have something called Zendesk Explore, which isn't as good as what they had in place previously."
"You couldn't give administrative access to new hires."
"Sometimes if there was a way to just flag the actual issue out of those email chains - that would be really helpful."
"It needs to improve in terms of its flexibility, price, and installation."
"Zendesk Guide could be improved by allowing us to put our assets in one location. What happens now for each article, for example, is we have to upload the images for that article to that location, so the image reuse is still not something that they have perfected. If they could allow us to update all the images in one location, and then pull the image from there, it would be easier when working on Multibrand projects. There are no Multibrand updates available—we have to update each brand manually. For my company, I have come up with an API tool which allows me to push the content to multiple brands together, but if you don't have something like that, you have to manually do it."
"As per me, there arent much significant issues or areas for improvement with Zendesk, as my usage of it is limited. I appreciate its ability to organize tickets effectively based on tags, allowing me to easily gather and analyze customer feedback and requests."
