FAVORABLE

Reliable, Scalable, and Flexible Support Platform

5.0
May 16, 2025
Zendesk has been a reliable, easily configured core platform for our company's operations. Since our 2021 migration, it has scaled to hundreds of agents serving our 250 million monthly active users, and its triggers, automations, and granular tools allow us to set the platform up for success, and refine workflows without code to deliver issues to the team who will resolve them quickest. Frustrations are mostly commercial: new features are increasingly gated behind expensive add-on packages, and the API rate limits are lower than some competitors - making large scale integrations harder. Overall, Zendesk remains central to delivering fast, consistent support for our users, and I would recommend it to other large SaaS organisations.
