Pros
Zoho Desk is a great addition to the Zoho Suite of products. We appreciate the great value offers in the entire suite.
You can customize anything you would like to match your platform's needs. It follows all relevant customer behavior ,prior to interactions , and it helps us anticipate their needs better.
I like that this helpdesk solution is flexible enough to allow for various usage - in my case we used it to field digital marketing and creative requests.
Cons
Previous to using Zoho, we were managing all our CS in our email inbox. Items were getting lost or forgotten about and it was driving me crazy.
The user interface can be a bit confusing if you are an entry level user.
Lack of customization options in the lower subscription tiers.

Great internal and customer communication

Reviewed 5 months ago

To keep tabs on the many ways in which people have reached out to us with questions about our bespoke products—email, phone, and even in-person—we have implemented a ticketing system in Zoho Desk. We have a long way to go until we fully integrate the system, but so far, what we've seen, we like what we see.

Pros

When it comes to managing a single or multiple businesses, ZohoDesk is the best option because of how easy it makes everything. There is a lot of flexibility and structure in the administration of the many divisions.

Cons

One possible drawback is that there is no desktop client. You still need a desktop app version, no matter how polished the webapp is. An additional minor tweak would be to enable the merging of requests by choosing all departments.

Zoho Desk: easy to use, customizable, and evolving service desk suite

Reviewed 9 months ago

We looked at a few others (Salesforce, FreshDesk, and others) and were surprised by many of the features. There were many Zoho branded products and services available that seemed to work well during testing. The interface and mobile apps were fairly intuitive and we were able to get a fully functional demo up and running in a matter of hours without much trouble. We evaluated it with other software at the same time, so let's compare how long it took us to get it up and running and use it functionally with other systems.

Pros

The initial setup wizard worked smoothly. Navigation through the configuration menus is simple and intuitive. The customer access portal home page is in place and ready for further customization of content. A clean design that displays the functions that are needed at this time.

Cons

The initial 14-day trial period is fine for "getting started", but trying to juggle a new set of desktop services and day-to-day work seems to work against the clock. A 30 to 45-day trial period would be excellent, as it allows you to become so familiar with the software that you are more willing to use it.

About Zoho Desk

Reviewed a month ago

The customer support team is always available to help with any questions or issues we may have. Zoho Desk is an incredibly powerful and intuitive customer service software. It has helped us streamline our customer service process and make it more efficient. We are able to respond to customer inquiries quickly and effectively, and our customer satisfaction has increased significantly.

Pros

Because Zoho Desk is an all-in-one customer support platform with a number of features to aid in managing client interactions, I truly appreciate it. You can build up customer care queues, automate customer service notifications, and simply generate, manage, and monitor client tickets with Zoho Desk. In order to help you better manage client interactions, it also provides capabilities like Knowledge Base Management, Document Management, Content Management, Text Editing, Communication Management, client History, and Widgets. Overall, Zoho Desk is a fantastic tool for teams who provide customer assistance.

Cons

Cons of Zoho Desk include: - Few customization choices for producing tickets - Difficult to set up and interface with other programmes - Limited automation possibilities - Confusing navigation for new users- Limited reports and analytics capabilities - No native interface with well-known project management software - No mobile app - Limited security and privacy choices- Lack of compatibility with other Zoho products

Zoho Desk isn't a favourite option of mine, but it works.

Reviewed 8 months ago

Zoho Desk is a great tool with many features, it seems some features may need ironing out or better documenting but otherwise it is a very useful tool that could be extremely valuable to many businesses in all different industries and niches. It is perfect for anyone who just wants a simple email ticketing solution but for those wanting to use the help desk knowledgebase solutions you may want to set aside some time to fully understand how it works and how to best use it.

Pros

Zoho Desk offers a range of tools to make sure that customer success rates are high. Their self service options are empowering and wouldn't be possible without their awesome ticketing tools which allow for agents to identify regular questions and support individual customers in a per-user tailored way. Being able to receive tickets in many different ways is also a great feature enabling customers to contact us in many different ways and always get the same level of support from the same great knowledgeable team. The ability to send branded emails directly from Zoho Desk with correct SPF records to keep the email safe is also a great feature that I couldn't be without.

Cons

Unfortunately the creation and customisation of the help desk and the posts within it come across as difficult to create and maintain even from the perspective of someone working in computer software. It is unclear what features are available for this and how they should be used to create a perfect self-service help desk to enable customers to get help immediately and free up time for agents to answer more complex and user specific problems.

Zoho for Customer management

Reviewed 3 months ago

Overall we are enjoying with the Zoho desk features. We have configured it with our internal IT department for resolving ticketing of internal employees.

Pros

Software is very user friendly, dashboard for ticketings is very useful and on the top of that support from zoho is also very good and prompt.

Cons

Desktop application is not available and to get started with zoho desk need lot of modification in the computer system.
