It offers all the tools needed to manage customer service efficiently from home. Pros While Zendesk is a strong all in one platform, it works best for remote work environments. It allows teams to manage tickets, chats, emails and customer interactions all in one place.

When an issue has come up, either the knowledgebase or support are quick and easy to deal with! Pros Zendesk has a very simplistic approach.

Each function seamlessly. Cons Occasionally, my staff has a tough time searching for things. This is partly due to the limitations in establishing contacts with the information we track. Other tiers offer better form collection information that would eliminate the issue. Zendesk also works with other form tools to get this job done.

It also has many add-on tools and is easilty integratable with many customer support related products, making the work environment quite whole and self-sufficient. Cons As much as the functionalities provided are great, I often run into bugs, connection issues and find myself having to reload the page a few times as I work. It's not a huge deal as a simple cache clear or reload fixes it most of the time. A bit annoying but it's nothing out of the ordinary.
