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.

Tínhamos as informações disponibilizadas do contexto do pedido do cliente sem custo algum, que desapareceram a partir de uma atualização e quando solicitamos novamente ele é cobrado pelo Shopfy. É um absurdo isso. A zendesk deveria continuar a nos disponibilizar as informações básicas do pedido do cliente.

I installed it to find dead ends to onboarding, and a reluctant support culture that is evident. There's also a superiority complex, "we're the best!" when it is not. I deleted it after an afternoon of research and trying. Hope you have better luck than I did!

If you are a Shopify store owner, I would recommend giving Zendesk a try. It is a free app to install and use for 14 days, so you can see for yourself if it is a good fit for your store.

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 This App! ¡No uses esta aplicación! ¡N'utilisez pas cette application! ¡Verwenden Sie diese App nicht! 请勿使用此应用! このアプリを使用しないでください! 이 앱을 사용하지 마세요! ¡Non utilizzare questa app! ¡Não use este aplicativo! ¡Не используйте это приложение! لا تستخدم هذا التطبيق!
