What do you like best about Zendesk for Customer Service?

What do you dislike about Zendesk for Customer Service?

Zendesk's main flaw remains that it seems designed for managing a large number of shallow interactions - perfect for support of an ecommerce website or other B to C function - but it is clunky and unwieldy in several ways when managing lower volume, longer runnning issues with deeper individual issue complexity in a B to B context. Excessive email notifications remain an issue - it would be a simple change to allow users (particularly team managers) to define particular conditions or filters to trigger notifications or email alerts when a ticket meets certain conditions.

Blanket 'follow' on tickets, which notifies you on every field update, is just plain annoying when managing a team of multiple agents. I want to set criteria and be notified when a ticket meets them. (To be fair you can techically do some of that using the 'triggers' function but it is way too complex and set up heavy to be practically useful in this way).

What problems is Zendesk for Customer Service solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Zendesk as our global support ticketing process for multiple products. It provides a platform for managing individual customer issues and gives an easy overview of global or regional activity via highly configurable dashboard-style reports that can be displayed on screens in the office and are available to the management team. It also integrates to our development management platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
