Great through email - unable to use online
What do you like best about the product?
My experience with this system is great through the email portion, everything sent in an email with the correct ticket linkage will be correctly populated into the ticket online.
What do you dislike about the product?
This might not be the fault of zendesk but I am unable to log in online to log a ticket. I should have a login but was never given one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This helps us communicate with our infrastructure team who are mostly working remotely.
Productive and easy to use system
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the layout of the system and it's features. The blended apps that are offered makes things a lot less time consuming when you work with different sites.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I dislike but one improvement I would request is the ability to control incoming chats meaning the amount received at a time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Zendesk to assist our customer with a number of different needs one of which is placing order.
Great tool out of the box
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, user management is easy, sharing with other helpdesks (with permission)
What do you dislike about the product?
Workflows for tasks can be a little clunky, customizations of the interface isn't intuitive at times. Notifications sometimes don't fire quickly enough. Has had several outages in the past year.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Help desk software for specific business unit, sharing with IT Helpdesk for other technical problems.
Moment of Zen
What do you like best about the product?
Zendesk is extremely intuitive as ticketing software. For the average user you can easily navigate through the dashboard and classify a plethora of fields for each ticket. If you dive even deeper you have the ability to create different dashboards as well as analyze metrics in easily understandable format.
What do you dislike about the product?
I found that although Zendesk integrates with Shoretel I still ran into issues in which they did not play well together. This would occur if data was not up to date. It would be nice if that portion of the program was more intelligent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Zendesk solved a large amount of business problems including consolidation of support requests, well organized dashboard where all requests are housed and worked, advanced metrics capabilities, dashboard customization, increased productivity.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are using Zendesk for the first time ensure that you have properly set up your ticket types and subtypes and that your staff is trained on what each means. This will allow for a more rich and accurate data set when analyzing metrics.
Most efficient CRM
What do you like best about the product?
Zendesk hosts everything on one page - Salesforce records, case history, customer information. It's great to get everything my team needs in one place. I also love that there is a next ticket in view button, because it makes everything oh-so-efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Duplicate tickets can be a pain, but it's easy to search and merge them. It would be a lot better if they had a system for matching two identical tickets and automatically merging them. I am a team manager and I do wish the reporting was a bit better. It can be hard to search for bad behaviors that need coaching. Also, the dashboards showing tickets solved should update in real time, not hours later. It's hard to motivate my team if they have no idea how many tickets they've done, and the only way to get it to update within 30 minutes of ticket submission is to include merged tickets, tickets that are "clean up" tickets, and things that don't count towards our productivity. I do not think the Zendesk rep who came to train us was very helpful, but we managed to figure out nearly everything on our own.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With the help of Zendesk, we're able to get to our clients in a much more efficient manner. It also keeps a very good history of that customer's previous issues, so when we speak with them it can be very easy to look back on what happened and see what they have previously written about. We can build a strong repertoire with our customers, and interact with internal people better than we could with Zendesk. Being able to categorize problems by issue type has greatly helped with our reporting and letting us know where to put our efforts and how to make better business decisions.

Customer service and support tickets
Zendesk is very easy to pick up and learn

I like the different options on a ticket. For instance, the pending feature comes in handy a lot since I don't need to remember to follow up, the system will do
What do you dislike about the product?
Not really much to dislike with this program.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is hard to stay organized when speaking to several different customers via incoming phone calls and emails. Zendesk allows you to stay organized by allowing internal notes, and tabs that let you move from ticket to ticket very easily.
Easy to use ticket maintenance and great customer support
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and manage. We also use Salesforce integration, and anytime I need support if theres a problem, they are super quick to respond.
What do you dislike about the product?
No rich text formatting. Entering messages can be glitchy at times, I'll be in the middle of typing and the cursor will move to the top of the message. Same thing happens when pasting into a ticket occasionally.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a support specialist, I handle incoming questions from our customers. Zendesk is an efficient/preferred solution for our tickets.
