Overall, I used it when I had a problem with Zendesk Suite and needed to speak to a live agent regarding problems with the apps themselves. So it was useful in a limited capacity but can't see it branch beyond that.

Pros

I liked its integration with the Zendesk suite and it's cool, almost indie branding and marketing design. I also appreciate the human agents behind the calls and at the time, how the app helped me back to the Zendesk page.

Cons

I didn't like the long wait time, and that everything attached to it had a cost which felt prohibitive. It also felt cluttered with a lot of unnecessary documentation.

Overall, having the experience to use this software is a wonderful experience. Hopefully, pricing would go down a little because according to our boss, its a bit pricey. But for me who personally use this, the function and service we are looking fora software was provided by this software.

Pros

I have used this application for more than a year and I really appreciate the speed of this software. We have integrated our outlook account using this and Zendesk works the same way while ticketing system within the Zendesk itself is running. My organization use this for very long time and I have witness it why. Super useful, easy to navigate, and super reactive to user's action. I like the round robin software integration and sound in notif because in our department, we really need to finish our task urgently as soon as we received it. Easy to communicate.

Cons

Sometimes, when we are experiencing error, process of resolving the issue took longer than what is expected. I hope resolving technical error can be improve. I also heard from our boss that it's a bit pricey.

Switched from

[monday.com](https://www.capterra.com/p/147657/monday-com/)

Much cheaper according to the boss how ever we are missing some feature that Zendesk has and Zendesk is much faster/reactive than monday.com.

Pros

Being a salesperson, this app really helps me in my workflow. It is very easy to use, and it has an intuitive interface, that helps the user to get started.

It is not for businesses with a large volume of calls, as a cost can add up very quickly and may become a liability for a business.
