### "Great tool for IT, HR, and EHR. "

January 22, 2026

5.0

Overall, our experience is fantastic. 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. The layout, the functionality, the consistency; all makes for a well rounded product. Ticketing, Contact management, form generation, and reporting are the biggest components for us. 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.

We needed a simple tool, not something bloated and geared towards large IT or managed IT.

### "Best Value and Support in the Work Force Management Game "

October 15, 2021

5.0

Tymeshift has been an absolute pleasure to work with since I made the decision to sign with them over other options in the work force space. The initial setup and onboarding was smooth and our account representative \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] has been with us every step of the way. Even though I probably bug more then I would like, they never make me feel like I'm not being heard or supported. This is honestly what I appreciate the most. Systems can be improved and modified, but that level of care you can't teach. It has to come naturally. Can't end this review without also giving shout outs to the technical support team who responds within minutes of my ticket request. Tymeshift is full of MVP's, too many to name, but you know who you are.

Pros

Analytics, ease of set up, customer support and user friendly system for the agents.

Cons

I love the system, but there are a few suggestions I have made regarding the reporting metrics and Tymeshift is always willing to listen to my suggestions and funnel up to the development team. That is rare in my experience with vendors.

Cost and platform demo. I felt with Tymeshift we got more bang for our buck and simplicity.

### "Reliable Workforce Management with Strong Scheduling Features"

April 7, 2026

5.0

Overall, my experience has been positive. It provides strong workforce management capabilities, especially in scheduling, forecasting, and employee tracking. While there are minor issues with support responsiveness and occasional bugs, the platform delivers solid value and helps improve operational efficiency. It’s a great tool for teams already using Zendesk, as the integration adds even more convenience.

Pros

Its intuitive scheduling tools and seamless integration with Zendesk Support. The platform makes it easy to forecast staffing needs, manage shifts, and track employee performance in real time. I especially like the employee tracking and scheduling features, which help keep operations organized and efficient. The interface is user-friendly, and once set up, it streamlines workforce planning significantly

Cons

One downside is that customer support can sometimes be slow to respond or not as detailed as needed for more complex issues. There are also occasional bugs or glitches, especially when updating schedules or syncing data. Additionally, the pricing can feel a bit high for smaller teams, and some advanced features have a learning curve.

### "WFM made easy"

November 30, 2021

5.0

It's been a great experience. The setup took some time and roll-out only happened after a couple of months in, though we've received a lot of support from Tymeshift's team and the available documentation complemented any other question we've had.

Pros

Forecasting and automatic scheduling make the most interesting features out of Tymeshift, simplifying the process for us.

Cons

The lack of integration capabilities via API, both in ingesting and extracting data together with our HR system.

Reason for choosing Zendesk WFM

Automatic scheduling, its ease of navigation for agents, how integrated it is with Zendesk, and the accurate forecasting we've obtained.

### "Reliable and Flexible for Remote Work"

March 26, 2026

5.0

Overall, Zendesk has provided a reliable and flexible work experience for remote work. 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.

Cons

I feel as though when first learning Zendesk, the software can feel overwhelming and complex without the in person support.

### "Great forecasting & scheduling solution for Zendesk"

October 13, 2021

5.0

We use Tymeshift to forecast, schedule, and track agent performance. The biggest problem it's solving for us is getting out of doing this all manually in spreadsheets and digging through Zendesk trying to figure out what agents did for that day.

Pros

Forecasting is easy to use and works out of the box, and I like that we can segment tickets based on the different types of work we handle. Scheduling is (mostly) automatic and the interface is one of the best I've tried. Also, their support team is excellent.

Cons

I'd like to see more granularity in the agent activity reporting using the same workstreams we have for forecasting and auto scheduling. They say that's coming soon but would highlight it as an opportunity for improvement.

### "Good timekeeping tool but still has limited functionality"

November 10, 2021

4.0

Tymeshift was able to solve the divide between the billing hours' discrepancies - it allowed us visualization in activities that are deemed unproductive givin us more accurate hours values. However, it is still not integrated with our voice team as it cannot attach to Five9. So far it only works with our Zendesk tools. We have limited use of its forecasting and scheduling capabilities even though it is integrated with agents to do so. It is also a bit pricy according to our managers.

Pros

Tymeshift can give great solutions to timekeeping especially in getting total billing hours

Cons

Tymeshift needs agents to be mindful and diligent in using the plugin to capture their activities

### "Great time tracker & employee management tool for ZenDesk"

August 1, 2018

5.0

Actionable analytics for workforce management.

Pros

I really enjoy the features and how it is built perfectly for ZenDesk. If you are running a large Help Desk company, these insights are invaluable.

Cons

The stand-alone product isn't as good as other time trackers on the market for the money, which I'm sure they are aware of, because it is truly meant for amazing insights within ZenDesk.

### "Exactly what we needed"

October 19, 2021

5.0

The support team was very helpful in the onboarding experience. Granted, the software was super slick to setup, so that helped too.

Pros

The forecasting feature is top-notch and helps us manage our workforce.

Cons

I would look forward to them expanding beyond Zendesk at some point in the future as there are a couple other companies we work with that aren't on Zendesk that could benefit from tymeshift.

### "Great & Functional Tool"

October 30, 2024

5.0

All in all, I have a positive experience with Zendesk WFM, I haven't had the chance to try other WFM tools myself, so I can't give a comparative opinion, but I'm quite satisfied with the tool.

Pros

I use the product as part of a customer support team that uses Zendesk to manage our resources to reply to clients and such. I love the coordination level that Zendesk achieves and its efficiency when it comes to team work. 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.

November 23, 2021

5.0

Pros

It was so easy to know everything I needed to know about the software before purchasing. The help center had everything and the YouTube videos teach you everything you want to learn. Customer service is top notch in both technical ability and professionalism. Enhancements to the software are constant.

Cons

Our operations really need a phone App which is not available atm, but we are willing to wait for it as I'm sure it's gonna be everything we want
