Zendesk Developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Zendesk Suite with Strong Automation and Powerful Scalability" December 17, 2025 5.0 My overall experience with has been very positive. It provides a centralized platform to manage customer interactions across multiple channels, making support operations more organized, efficient, and scalable. It’s especially valuable for growing teams that need automation, analytics, and consistency in customer services. Pros offers strong value for money considering the wide range of features included - ticketing, automation, analytics, and omnichannel support. The interface is clean and intuitive for agents, making it easy to manage tickets and workflows. Customer Support/Client Support is reliable and professional. Zendesk integrates well with sales workflows, especially when used alongside Zendesk Sell or CRM tools. It helps align sales and support teams by providing context around customer interactions. The platform is generally stable, but sometimes bugs and issues or we can say performance slowdowns occur,after some updates in plateform. Most issues are minor and are resolved quickly through patches or support assistance. Cons Advanced configurations will take your time to learn and then impliment. Pricing can be expensive for small startups because some useful and more advance features are locked behind higher plans. Review Source BR Brian R. Director of Operations Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Always something that brings more value. " December 9, 2025 5.0 We like the platform and continue to grow into it. Even after 7+ years of being on it, there always seems to be something new. Pros Zendesk has awesome customer support. Often when I think of something I want to do or need, I can message their support and they get me an answer instantly. Their system is feature rich and flexible. Cons Access to the platform can get somewhat pricey. It may be worth it to you though. That will depend on whether or not you take advantage of the many features available to you. Switched from [HelpSpot](https://www.capterra.com/p/53431/HelpSpot/) We needed a comprehensive system that did knowledge management/articles. Userscape was a great budget option for many years but we outgrew it. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer IT Admin Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Nearly the standard for multichannel customer support options" February 16, 2026 3.0 When attempting to streamline our support efforts, both for customers and for employees, we turned to Zendesk and found that it did exactly what it said it did. For unknown reasons we couldn't get buy-in from all employees though, and ended up looking elsewhere. Pros While they're not completely ubiquitous on the internet, Zendesk is used by many large companies, so it's a clear and efficient customer support structure that is easy to use for customers. Cons While easy to use for customers, some of the backend framework is a little hard to understand for less tech-savvy co-workers. Review Source Mai M. Managing Director Hospitality Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Moment of Zen" March 27, 2026 5.0 Zendesk definitely feels like a modern approach to customer service! It's a super streamlined model with AI support that creates a fresh way to elevate the customer journey. Pros I love the messaging feature that allows me to connect with clients via multiple platforms. Social, email and even live chat. Cons No cons- I will admit I'm just starting to use it so the learning curve is there but feels like I can adapt and learn quickly. Review Source CB Cynthia B. Manager of Registration Services Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Don’t ever take it away from me! " July 13, 2025 5.0 Excellent from day one. Coming from the agony of replying to each individual client via Gmail and not being able to compare responses or easily locate past interactions to everything and everyone in a single place with a GREAT search function is amazing. Don’t ever take this product away. Pros Managing emails as tickets and having every readily accessible for teams to review interactions that support the quality of everyone’s service is invaluable. I have been a user for 4+ years now across companies and the way it makes you more efficient when responding to clients requests is great. Cons There are few things that could be improved like the reply box covering part of the email response or not being automatically adjusted. Things that I’d personally like but are not dealbreakers. Switched from [Gmail](https://www.capterra.com/p/202338/Gmail/) It was not sustainable anymore. We needed to be aware of all team responses and tracking between clients to support training, service and organization altogether Review Source KY Katie Y. Head of Customer Success Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Leaders in CX? I beg to differ" March 7, 2025 1.0 Our first several years working with Zendesk were pretty good. We rarely required help and the feature set met our needs. About 5 years ago our experience with them started going downhill fast. At this point I would strongly recommend against anyone starting a business relationship with this company. Pros The ticketing system works well most of the time. Cons \- Their support is some of the worst I've ever experienced and keeps getting worse. - Their admin portal is buggy - Their knowledge base tools requires you to learn a new programming language in order to set up a support site. - Their knowledge base tool is buggy. It routinely deletes images from and messes up formatting in active articles. - Their analytics tool is complex and requires a deep understanding of Zendesk architecture to use successfully. - The few valuable features they introduce are made available to enterprise customers only. - Most new development is focused on half-baked call center solutions that don't work as promised and decrease the quality of support offered to both their clients and yours. - They do a terrible job of screening for junk and spam letting a significant numbers of spam and malicious messages through and flagging real customer message en masse after each update. - They do not notify you in any way if your messages can't be delivered (bounces, etc) Alternatives considered [Freshdesk](https://www.capterra.com/p/124981/Freshdesk/) Reason for choosing Zendesk Suite Zendesk support was better than Freshdesk (at the time we signed up many years ago) Review Source TW Timothy W. IT Consultant Biotechnology Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Its good but still not perfect" July 1, 2025 3.0 Its good enough for what we are using it for. There are definately features missing that I feel like a big company like Zendesk should have already implemented. Such as, keep tickets closed after customer says Thank you. Pros Powerful ticketing system. Lots of options and features you can use from this. So far its defiantly one of the better ticketing systems outthere. Cons The onboarding with support was honestly pretty terrible. We had this package that was supposed to give us good support and we thought it was white glove service and it was not. Switched from [ManageEngine Endpoint Central](https://www.capterra.com/p/170018/ManageEngine-Desktop-Central/) Needed a more robust system that can support multiple departments in a company. Review Source FM Freyxa M. CUSTOMER SUPPORT EFFICIENCY Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Customer support ally" May 22, 2025 4.0 My over experience was really good. It made my job easier, made my experience with the software, and the company itself a lot more bearable. Pros I really like this in one of my experiences with retail support, but I was able to work with emails, SMS, and life chat, and it was really efficient, user-friendly, and everything was organized Cons I am going to be 100% honest identify anything that I didn’t like about these so for specific because I found it to have everything on display and everything to be usable Switched from [Gorgias](https://www.capterra.com/p/155357/Gorgias/) The past software wasn’t that good and he was not able to hold all the information and all of the leads generating every single day Review Source aG ady G. E Commerce Manager Automotive Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Customer facing its a sold application" February 3, 2025 4.0 Overall we still use it on our main website as its reliable and does what it says it does out of the tin. Pros Works perfectly and interface is nice from a customer perspective Cons We found it difficult to setup workflows and after the initial installation haven't managed to go any further in depth with it. Alternatives considered [WhatsApp](https://www.capterra.com/p/180345/WhatsApp/) Reason for choosing Zendesk Suite The ease to deply zendesk across our network at our main office, where whatsapp struggled with multiple users at the time. Review Source KW Karen W. Head of CX Consumer Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Overall an excellent product" May 20, 2025 5.0 It's a really good idea to use a Zendesk partner to help with set-up and certainly with training users. Pros Intuitive, simple to learn, easy to use. Fast set up. Can partner with suppliers to assist with training and customisation. Cons Difficult to change the basic design without the help of a developer. Custom branding quite basic. Ditto colours. Alternatives considered [Salesforce Service Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/136189/Salesforce/) Reason for choosing Zendesk Suite Support, ease of use, recommendations from others Review Source AT Anita T. Senior Solution Architect Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Zendesk Suite: Powering support with confidence" December 16, 2025 5.0 Overall, serves as a robust and scalable support platform centralizing mulit-stakeholder support, improving response times through automation and self-service capabilities supported with analytics to report on support metrics. Pros Centralized support for multiple stakeholders Knowledge base support for self-service and internal guidance Scalability - can support growing portfolios across cross-functional teams Cons Cost - licensing and add-ons are costly Lacks fine grained permission control for roles Audit trail limited Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Systems Administrator Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Product from a Great Company. " December 27, 2025 5.0 Pros Zendesk and Specifically Support is one of the best tools I have ever used. I was the main administrator for the software and basically lived in it all day. Cons The ability to get ticket info to non users and even light agent was a struggle at times. The cost of an agent is pretty pricey and for someone that needs to see 10 or so tickets a month it simply does not work. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Support Operations Specialist Entertainment Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Intelligent, All-in one support software" September 9, 2025 5.0 Great! Simple enough when you spend enough time in it. It has all the customization that our teams need. I would like to see less add-ons for premium features but a lot are added in with the Enterprise Suite. Pros As an admin, the interface is user friendly and straightforward as well as the training and certification modules they have. Triggers, macros, automations are all great tools for all of your support needs. The customization of being able to add custom apps via API along with pulling other information is simple. Their customer support team is top tear and always quick to respond. Cons They are moving very rapidly in terms of development. Products like Zendesk Ultimate AI is very new and being updated weekly. Sometimes that comes with downsides like not having the most up to date articles. Review Source AG Angela G. Customer support Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Communication tool" March 26, 2026 4.0 Overall, Zendesk is ideal for a company to minimize what is needed as a communication tool in a company. Pros Everything you need to communicate within the workplace and out is housed in Zendesk. Need help with a tech issue? Put in a ticket through ZenDesk and your request is sent to IT. Easy to follow to meet customer needs, answer calls, or send emails to meet company needs and delegted tasks. Cons Zendesk requires a strong workhorse of a computer to work efficiently. Using an economy laptop is okay, but it will lag the more Zendesk is used therefore delaying tasks. Review Source Parsa G. Data Analyst Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Solid Customer support tool" August 27, 2025 4.0 Great experience. It was very easy to use and customize, as well as training less technical staff on how to efficiently work with the tool. Pros Very easy and convenient to use tool. Supports many customizations and allows for editing/adding filters. Was the main tool for communications and supports with clients and track the progress. Cons Not much to mention. I would say implementing AI assistants is inevitable these days and this part could improve further more. Review Source DD Dennis D. Business Owner Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "It does the job well." June 17, 2025 4.0 The overall experience has been quite positive. As I said above, there's very little lacking in any area for a clean and easy solution. Some other solutions offer more features but often more features is not always what I want if they don't work well. Pros I really like the help desk / ticketing features and it's very easy to use once it's all set up and deployed. Even the deployment and initial configuration is pretty straight forward. Cons There's not a whole lot that I don't like about Zendesk's products. Sometimes, in the past, I found it lacking in the reporting department. Especially when it comes to the ticketing side. Review Source MJ Melanie J. HR Manager Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "All Around User Friendly" December 16, 2025 4.0 Zendesk is a great overall tool with a user friendly interface and tools that are easy to use in your day to day. Pros Zendesk is very user friendly for agents, end users and admins compared to other ticketing systems I have used. Cons The latest updates with reporting are difficult to navigate and removed helpful features. I have continued using the legacy versions since I can't understand these. Review Source Yolandi E. Founder Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Your zen garden when it comes to customer support" March 4, 2025 4.0 It was good and did as promised, it made life easier as at that time I was dealing with a lot of queries from different time zones. Pros The complete customer service solution is awesome. The ticketing system is an amazing bonus. Cons It's not the easiest platform to navigate for someone who has no technical knowledge. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Fraud Ops Senior Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Zendesk the perfect customer support automation tool" September 15, 2025 5.0 Pros The constant advancements within the product. I have used ZD for a few years now, and it is constantly advancing to allow for the most advanced automations for Customer Support. Cons I wish Zendesk had a better secure email vault built into the product. It is currently the only gap I have identified within my use case, and wish they would invest in a document/email vault for secure information to be stored and passed. Review Source HN Harshad N. Technical Support Expert Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Tickets and call management platform" February 24, 2025 4.0 The Zendesk is one of the best manageable tools for ticket management which I have worked on yet. Navigating options, dashboard, calling partners using integrated extensions, and using AI for ticket summary all are super easy and a minute job to understand. In office environment performance is absolutely good and the environment is secure as well. Pros 1\. Well and easily integrated platform with all the necessary extensions required in ticket handling. 2. Secured and reliable platform. The dashboard is extremely easy to navigate and see the options directly. 3. We can see the history of the ticket and can create and search for relevant KBs directly in the ticket panel only. Calculating the workforce, and doing chats and calls is just perfect and won't require any guidance to start and work. Cons 1\. Interface is very slow if the laptop gets disconnected from the company VPN and directly connects to the internet. 2. Chat on Zendesk by using a mobile is not very appropriate and recommended. Review Source GT Gligor T. Senior IT Engineer Banking Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Good setup for help desk operations" July 16, 2025 5.0 Pros I could establish a public knowledge base decreasing the amount of repeat questions. By using Zendesk, I can track what articles get the most views and therefore find out where I’m providing value and where I’m making a hole. Cons Merging two or more different customer messages sent over different channels into a single thread isn’t always automatic with such confusion in tracking resolution steps or audit trails. Review Source PK Phillip K. IT Support Officer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Sound backbone to our support functions" July 16, 2025 5.0 Pros I adored Zendesk intelligent ticket selection with automated assignment by skill set and by workload so my team never missed serious problems and the response time across channels of support shot through the roof. Cons The user roles and permissions felt too restrictive, and that adding new agent groups necessitated using multiple separate admin panels. Review Source CB Christine B. Pilates transformation expert Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great at Customer Service Workflow" April 13, 2026 4.0 Very helpful in simplifying customer service workflow. If they could solve the filtering issues, I’d give them another star. Pros It’s a centralized platform that can manage almost all customer interactions - chat, help desk, email and order management. Cons Major issues with spam and junk email not being filtered out, while real customer emails get lost in the mix. Review Source JC Jaya C. System Engineer Telecommunications Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Making customer support simple across all channels" June 2, 2025 5.0 Pros I like the fact that bundles together email, chat and social media support in one place. It enabled me to keep track of all the customer requests without losing context and easy way to respond back and upsell. Cons In a few cases, tickets didn’t get routed correctly per priority rules slowing down response times when the team was really busy. Review Source MN Musawenkosi N. Technical Support Officer Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Follow up reminders for unresolved issues are set up" May 21, 2025 5.0 Pros It has helped me bring some order to my support operations. And allows me to keep SLA goals and respond on time and informs me about ticket history with built in ticket flow automating tools. Cons Sometimes it limits me the way handles follow up tickets when a ticket is closed. When a customer replies after closure, he creates a new thread instead of responding to previous one.
