Find out what your peers are saying about ServiceNow, Atlassian, BMC and others in Help Desk Software."The solution is a highly mature product. Because of this, it can stand up to any other product on the market."
"Its agility and simplicity are the most valuable features. This tool is very user-friendly."
"It's very convenient to use."
"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."
"Zendesk Support has a lot of good APIs."
"I found the user experience with vendors on Zendesk to be straightforward, especially when it comes to understanding and searching for specific tickets. The search and navigation tools are easy to use, and I haven't encountered any issues with delays or communication gaps in ticket resolutions."
"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."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The feature to move over my customer experience team tickets for different specialists is very valuable for my team."
"The solution needs to improve its reporting features. The user interface needs a lot of improvements."
"Zendesk Guide's customization could be improved. I would like it to be easier and maybe open-sourced, so that if you have a developer in your company, you can do it yourself. Right now, that isn't allowed, so you need to have it done via the integrator. Another improvement—this is nit-picking—is that it could be less easy to make changes. Some things are so easy that they sometimes look a little amateur-ish. Most of the templates are built-in so they can be used directly, so they are very simple."
"The solution could integrate better with QR codes from some websites such as Facebook."
"The solution itself wasn't easy to set up."
"It needs to improve in terms of its flexibility, price, and installation."
"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."
"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."
"You couldn't give administrative access to new hires."
