Overall Satisfaction with Zendesk Suite

We use Zendesk Suite as a means to communicate support issues to our IT team and for on/off boarding. It is an easier way to keep track of tasks, problems. and incidents. We also use it as a way to show our work and record how many hours it takes to resolve a given issue.

Pros

  • Zendesk Suite makes our agent accountable
  • Zendesk Suite gives us a clear picture of what needs to happen in our organization
  • Zendesk Suite makes it easy to communicate with our user base

Cons

  • Zendesk Suite needs add-ons in the form of SweetHawk to make things like lists
  • Zendesk Suite doesn't provide an end user interface out of the box at the lowest tier
  • Zendesk Suite needs to be more customizable at lower tiers
  • We have been able to deliver IT accurately and onetime
  • Our customers have been able to provide feedback on a given ticket and helped us build a better support structure
  • Zendesk Suite has allowed us to be more efficient in our every day operations
Zendesk Suite only does some basic things out of the box. It needs add-ons in order to do anything at a more than basic level. Zendesk Suite's overall usability is good but it could do a lot more out of the box without making us jump through the add-on hoops. Also, turning the add-ons off after a trial period can break Zendesk Suite and it takes a lot to fix.
Zendesk Suite is easy to use from an admin and from an agent point of view. The support team loves the interface. The documentation is a bit lacking but the overall intuitiveness of the app makes up for the lack of quality documentation. Overall Zendesk Suite is easy to learn and implement.

Do you think Zendesk Suite delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Zendesk Suite's feature set?

Yes

Did Zendesk Suite live up to sales and marketing promises?

No

Did implementation of Zendesk Suite go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Zendesk Suite again?

Yes

Zendesk Suite is well suited for on/off boarding but only when add-ons like SweetHawk are implemented. I can add lists and assign tasks to people as well as have multiple agents working on a given ticket.

It is not great at change control or incident management. The system is better at regular tickets and would need add-ons or modifications to make incident management top tier.
