Automating customer support with advanced AI capabilities and seamless communication
Zendesk has been invaluable in automating communications such as email and phone calls. It allows us to handle more support cases with fewer people due to its advanced artificial intelligence capabilities. This intelligent tool can manage complex queries before users even realize they are interacting with a non-human. Additionally, we have integrated Zendesk with Datto and Klaviyo ( /products/klaviyo-reviews ), enhancing our workflows.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution's technical support is very responsive."
"The user-friendly solution enables business users to extract data in various formats independently. Additionally, it controls access, allowing for data masking of sensitive information within Oracle. These features contribute positively to the user experience, especially from the perspective of business users."
"It has good management, the ability to sign tickets based on content, the multi-channel support, the self service portal, the integration with Salesforce, the setup process, and the product features as we are currently using them."
"I love how the tickets would auto-populate very quickly in Zendesk, especially when a call comes in."
"Its agility and simplicity are the most valuable features. This tool is very user-friendly."
"It's a very stable tool, very powerful."
"Zendesk Support has a lot of good APIs."
"The initial setup is simple and straightforward."
"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."
 

Cons

"I recommend enhancing the user interface to make the product more user-friendly for business users. Identifying queries that apply to Oracle technical assessments would be beneficial, particularly for Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) or other specific ready-made packages."
"The concerns where improvements are required lie in the area of finance revolving around aspects like receivables and the general ledger."
"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."
"The price of the solution should be reduced."
"It needs to improve in terms of its flexibility, price, and installation."
"It wasn't easy to set up so we're only using a third of all of the features,"
"There is always a network issue with Zendesk. But we don’t know whether it is managed. The network issue is that when I call, it does not let us."
"Sometimes if there was a way to just flag the actual issue out of those email chains - that would be really helpful."
"There could be improvements in integration, which can be achieved with APIs or tools like Zapier."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product price a six or a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"The tool is cheap, but monthly subscriptions are a bit high."
"There are different plans that are offered. We are using the entry-level plan. The overall price of the solution should be reduced. The price is too high."
"You have to pay extra for better support. So it's not only the license that you pay for, but you have to pay extra for the support as well."
"We pay for the solution on a yearly basis and my understanding is that the cost is about $30,000. That's the cost for 24 to 25 agents."
"Zendesk's licensing is not cheap. For Enterprise, we are paying $200 per agent. It's a per-month cost, so it's pretty steep. There are some services you need to pay extra for. For example, with Zendesk Guide, we had to buy the most expensive offering in order to get Multibrand and everything. We also had to pay a lot of money for themes."
"From what I hear, Zendesk's pricing is a little expensive."
"The price is very competitive."
