Likelihood to Recommend SoDash is excellent for businesses that get a high volume of customer service inquiries via social media, whether it be from one platform or many. It takes in data from Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Google, Pinterest, Flickr, blogs around the web, and lots of others. It is equally suited for a startup with a small customer service department, or an older company with a large customer service department. The software allows customer service agents to attach comments/notes to each customer that other agents can see.

The work flow of tickets submission either manually through the dashboard or mobile application, and tickets assignment to other agents along with tracking tickets and agents' performance is very easily executed with no issues being faced.
Read full review Pros SoDash covers more social media sources than any other tool on the market.

Read full review When utilizing as a ticketing system, it would be nice to have a better way to monitor when something is due. It's just a little cumbersome. Search Functionality - The search functionality could use a tweak or two. Too many times I am unable to find tickets. This would also be very helpful for the "Recycle Bin" when you just need to find that ticket you accidentally deleted (we are all human!). :) Read full review Usability At times Zoho [Desk] can be a bit glitchy. It does not auto refresh on the ticketing system, and even f it tells you there is a new ticket clicking it does nothing and you need to refresh the page for it to work. We have found at times that is can become unresponsive, although this usually doesn't last for longer than 15-30 mins.
Read full review Support Rating Zoho Desk has a technical team of professionals, who are well informed, and they know how to share the knowledge with the other players. Besides, they are competent in dealing with all kinds of customers, from divergent locations, and adopt their differences. Lastly, when called upon to solve an issue, they are quickly responsive.
Read full review Alternatives Considered We selected SoDash for two main reasons: 1) It takes in data from more social media sources than any other software, and 2) Its price point made it a good value. Those things are what differentiate it from its competition.
Read full review We selected Zoho Desk as we needed a platform that was going to allow the business to grow through both usage and staffing numbers. We wanted something cost-effective but still offered standard features in an effective cloud-delivered solution but would still allow customization by our internal dev team, to derive better value from the service where it natively didn't do what we needed it to.
FreeAgent was okay for a while, but Zoho Desk has allowed a vast improvement in our service offering to end customers.
