Zendesk is one of the most popular helpdesk solutions available today. It’s used by a large number of companies both big and small. This customer service app utilizes the power of the cloud. It’s easy to use, efficient, and highly flexible, and the software is fully scalable. The numerous of ways tickets can get raised is definitely one of Zendesk’s key strengths. It allows tickets to be raised through a range of sources: email, web, telephone, chat, and social networking sites. A really cool feature of Zendesk is task automation. Common tasks can be automated using Triggers, Zendesk’s smart system. For example, if a high-profile customer sent an email, the ticketed request can be set up to follow specific actions, be addressed by a particular agent and be given the highest priority; all under an automated action. Zendesk uses a subscription pricing model with prices starting from $1/agent/month, rising to $195/agent/month. A 30-day free trial is available.
