Zendesk

Zendesk claims to provide the "world's best" ticket management system, but it undeniably has the worst customer service in the world. How ironic is that!

To all those concerned about this:

Do NOT use zendesk for website chat, sms and phone. The software interface is not user friendly and looks like it was designed 10 years ago and never updated. We spent multiple hours trying to get it setup as there was very little help/tutorials available.
Voip calls have significant lag when answering the call and overall call quality is very low.
You cannot send an sms to customers in any simple way.
There is no mobile app for answering calls so EVERY phone call must be answered at your desktop.
When I requested cancelling today they screenshot the contract saying I have to give them 30 days so will bill me for another month.
Ironically their website support is slow to respond.

We have changed over to Coax app. So much better for about the same cost.

DO NOT USE ZENDESK. HIGHLY RECOMMEND GORGIAS!!! The irony of running a customer service company and yet having the absolutely worst customer service in the business is not lost on me. We finally upgraded our zendesk level, after years of them begging. They set it up incorrectly, and then absolutely ghosted us when we asked for assistance in correcting their error. So essentially, we paid for MONTHS for a service we did not receive. They are an absolutely terrible company. Please, please save your money and use someone else for your customer service needs.

The Shopify/Zendesk is an integral part of our business, we use it to have surface-level visibility into customer order history and details as well as customer notes while doing sales and support. The app largely eliminates the need for an entire additional window. The reason I can only give 4/5 stars is that there are a few features I'd still love to see, that could truly let our team work solely through the Zendesk interface:
1. If we could place orders within the side-bar app
2. if we could connect ticket numbers with the SKUs in an order created from that customer interaction.

We have been using Zen Desk for over 4 years but had to cancel it this month. They are way behind the times when it comes to automation/Ai support, have poor customer service, a clunky ap interface and the cost is high with many additional fees for additional agents, programs etc. Also their billing is a bit shady with auto-renewals and no refunds for cancellations. 2 stars because Zen Desk worked well for us for years, but there are much better options out there.

Answering tickets has become much more seamless since using the Shopify integration. 80% of the information needed about an order/customer is right at our fingertips. If I could make any suggestion that would change this review to a 5-star review would be to add the timeline notes to the sidebar. Our reps utilize the timeline notes for any and all edits to an order.

Having the Shopify app installed into our Zendesk instance has brought a good amount of convenience and efficiency to our workflows, but there are a few features that are missing to take it to the next level. 1. Our team uses Timeline Notes rather than Order Notes to leave comments on an order. Seeing any timeline notes attached to each order expansion would be incredibly helpful. 2. Tags associated with each order displayed in the order expansion as well as the customer profile. This would improve our efficiency by a few clicks. 3. Quick links to specific apps, such as ReCharge would save a lot of time for our team as well Overall the app is extremely reliable and has brought a lot of clarity to our team.

Saves a lot of time, especially during non business hours.

Shopify has been an amazing tool for us and we are able to access other tools easily to become more efficient. The help we receive is prompt. There are minimal issues using Shopify. Other platforms we have used have been more difficult, not as efficient, or as helpful. This is a great tool for a busy business.

This app has really helped our ability to meet the needs of our customers quickly. I highly recommend this app, and don't know why you wouldn't use it. Really appreciate the flawless integration between Shopify & Zendesk.
