We performed a comparison between monday.com and Zendesk based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two CRM solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."With multiple team members working on multiple fast-moving briefs, tasks, and projects - often remotely and in different timezones - Monday.com has become our reliable source of truth to oversee and manage everything that's going on."
"Being able to see the physical status of a single team without having to drill down to the task level is very valuable."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Integrations such as the one for Slack have helped us receive updates on tasks immediately as they occur by other team members."
"We love how we can create boards specifically focused on one topic and have all tasks and projects pertaining to that in one place."
"We also love that Monday talks with Mailchimp so we can always stay connected with people."
"From the user's perspective, and even for me as an implementation consultant, one of the most valuable features is the integration of different platforms with monday.com. In addition to that, the real-time reporting from the dashboards is also valuable, as is the ability to customize it."
"The feature which I found most valuable is the "My Work" section."
"Zendesk Support has a lot of good APIs."
"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 that Zendesk gives you a lot of configurability, and a lot of leeway in terms of customizing the look and theme. Zendesk offers you the facility to design your own landing page, as well as the look and feel of the entire knowledge base. At the same time, they offer themes that you can simply purchase and implement. Either way, it can really be turned into the right look and feel of the knowledge base required by our company, which is very important—if you have a bland-looking page, most of the time, people will lose interest. Zendesk also allows you to test the customizations before you publish it. It gives you a sandbox location where you can test everything new that you're trying to create and publish, which is very interesting."
"The product offers very good management. It has a great ability to assign tickets based on content."
"We rarely had issues with Zendesk."
"It is a scalable solution."
"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."
"The most valuable features of Zendesk Support are collaboration, reports, and a self-service portal. The customer and team can see all the information needed from the portal."
"It would be nice to have more custom automation and also to simplify some steps to better manage a team and a workload for projects."
"We'd like integration with SharePoint so that it becomes easier to find and share files stored in SharePoint."
"We'd love the ability to be able to build and export reports based on multiple boards."
"The product can be improved by adjusting some of the ways in which the "boards" work."
"I do wish that admins could edit everything, no matter who created a post/board/subitems, etc."
"I would like to see an app version similar to Teams, or even have them integrate with Teams."
"We have always wanted to be able to perform a global search for a phone number."
"I'm unclear about the notifications feature in that I receive way too many emails."
"The solution itself wasn't easy to set up."
"You couldn't give administrative access to new hires."
"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."
"The data you get when logged in to Zendesk Support differs from the data you get when you programmatically query Zendesk Support through its API because of a sync time delay."
"It wasn't easy to set up so we're only using a third of all of the features,"
"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."
"It needs to improve in terms of its flexibility, price, and installation."
"One of the drawbacks of Zendesk is that it doesn't provide a secure way for us to send data. So, we usually use a secure SharePoint folder link. We put that in the Zendesk ticket so that the requester has a secure way of getting to their data."
