Speaker 1: Hi, my name's Chris. I'm the managing director. The company's called Complete Probate Matters. We've got seven employees within the company. It's growing and this is regarding Zoho Desk. We actually do rate this a number five. Once we looked at it looked to be a pretty user-friendly package. Just downloaded the app and installed it, and it configured itself pretty straightforward. Yeah, we were quite happy with the actual transformation. We looked at Zendesk itself and chose it was one usability. How straightforward the package also not too much. It wasn't too heavy on our service system, so it's pretty easy to integrate and the price was also very affordable. So yeah, we was happy with that and that's why we took that package and we're happy with it. To get started, a little bit of reading through, but once we got that out the way, it was pretty straightforward, a bit more of a click and play situation, if you want to call it. We got prompts throughout the whole installation and everything went through quite fine. Within a matter of an hour or so, we was up and running happy with the product. Well, when it comes to looking at your company for a CLM system such as Zendesk, I would definitely say have a look at it. If anything, go with the little trial period on it. Just get familiar with it. That's what we've done. Once you've got familiar with it was pretty straightforward to bring it in and transfer across. So yeah, I would recommend it highly. Yeah, give it a go guys. It's very easy, very straightforward.
