  • Using Views, we can see how many unsolved tickets are in each group.
  • I really enjoy using Zendesk Support because it has been able to satisfy all the needs that I as a company have with both my clients and with my suppliers. As for the latter, I have been able to establish closer and more efficient communication with them.

  • Our reporting team still struggles with obtaining the right information from time to time with the chats. This leads to loss of productivity and more resources dedicated to reporting.
  • With Zopim analytics we have also been able to understand where we need additional resources as well as where we could save.

  • I can't answer that question because I'm not aware of the exact cost of zendesk. I do know that as Zopim is available only to our Pro subscribers (mid level subscription), we do have many customers upgrade from Standard to Pro just to be able to get immediate support via live chat.

  • Positive impact - Compared to our old system, this newly updated system provides features and functionality that has increased our agent productivity and provided customer insight like we've never had before. This has resulted in fewer hold times and higher customer satisfaction.
  • Negative impact - Our reporting team still struggles with obtaining the right information from time to time with the chats. This leads to loss of productivity and more resources dedicated to reporting.
  • Positive impact - Due to Zopim's embed, we are able to more successfully place them on the appropriate self-service portals and pages, reaching a larger audience, and being more readily available to answer our client's questions. This has resulted in an increase in our self-service portal usage, driving down the phone and email support channels, which in turn reduces support costs.
