In our company, we host our benefit articles based on country on our Zendesk Guide. However, these articles should not be seen by employees that are outside their respective article country. For example, an employee that is based in Thailand shouldn't be seeing Malaysia benefits article as employees might compared benefits. With Zendesk Guide, the system allow us to set the configuration of the article so it is only visible Thailand-based employees, and for Malaysia article, only Malaysia-based employees
You can keep all of your organization information in one place without having to pay for it. You can make it your permanent knowledge base for training of your customers, without having to build another one on your website. However if you have multiple projects, then you need to either use the paid version or some other tool, as for the free version you are only provided with one free wiki.
They give us ability to control the whole frontend of the Communities by giving us access to manipulate HTML (in HBS file), CSS and JS
They give handlebars templating engine in backend which helps us to show various listing rendered through server side without having need to implement client side rendering of the listing and features.
They provide us dynamic content fields, which can be useful for mapping categories or storing category and topic IDs so we don't need to hard code IDs in Sandbox and Production separately.
Even for business plan, they provide 1GB storage/ User which is very less in case if you need to attach files, this must be upgraded without increasing cost.
It is no-where mentioned that where their data centers are located, in some countries like India it is legal compliance that data should reside in country.
The support is good but can sometime be frustrating to get a quick answer. We end up being sent articles that don't answer the question and then we have to go back and try again
It is an attribute of Zendesk that allows for easy over the phone communication between agents and customers. It is more personal and allows for better productivity. Phone support from anywhere with reliable internet connection which is essential to call center communication whether in the office or in the home of the agent.
Confluence features were limited with the free version and our organization wasn't in a position to invest in a knowledge sharing platform, hence Zoho Wiki came in handy as it saved us on the extra cost which we could not initially afford. Also as we were already using other Zoho products which Atlassian was not offering, therefore Zoho Wiki was considered the best alternative.
