would recommend this appPros
Ticket handling is great, and the way everything links together is amazing. The ability to search across the whole platform (documentation, tickets, users) all at once, is fantastic.
It's a very easy to use with very good features that really help make the job much easier. I really learned a lot thanks to it, becaus zendesk helps me know my applicacion even better.
The experience with Zendesk is very good, it has helped me to better organize the incidents, give them priority and also be able to obtain very good statistics to analyze the work of the team.
Pros
It has all the robust features of competitors but I think easier to use and you can easily integrate with websites. Also, It is very agency friendly and the customer support is great.
It has great templates which allow you to create emails that look great and are functional sales tools. There are also great automation tools for drip campaigns and re-targeting.
I recently tied my calendar into my signature to improve the meeting functionality offered to prospects/clients. The FAQs and video help are incredibly useful and customer service is fantastic.
Cons
I dislike that unless you are communicating within the actual Zendesk software with your admin/technical support team, it comes through as a confusing email thread that is hard to follow.
Its routing function is slow, and it is not automatable. Another problem is (ironically) your tool for managing and tracking problems, it's slow.
I haven't found any problem with this app at the moment. I think it fits our needs at the moment, I will update my review if I ever find a problem.
Cons
Visitor ID: This really sucks, they cant ban ISP's from their side, no country wise traffic, this is really a useless feature.
I disliked little about the software, and only heard complaints that were minor, such as, bringing back a coders view for the emails templates.
I highly dislike the recent shift in having clients pay for their own accounts with separate billing.
