Zoho Desk

Pros

Managing a staff to answer client questions and navigating the system itself is a joy thanks to the system's simplicity, intuitiveness, and the extensive personalization choices provided by its automation and workflow features.

Cons

Getting help, including clear responses to my inquiries, has proven challenging. In my experience as a ticketing system manager, I have never encountered anything more irritating.

Pros

I use Zoho desk for submitting tickets and receiving tickets which has really changed the way my company and myself takes on tickets from our customers. It really gives the customer a hassle-free experience of following up by just providing them complete visibility to their ticket status with real time communication options.

Cons

The only thing I would say to dislike is limited options to notify help desk teams with status on tickets and also not much of customization.

Pros

It has all the basic features that are requested.

Cons

It is not customizable to be used simultaneously in several languages and markets. Especially if one agent covers many markets.

Pros

Powerful help desk software that's affordable and customizable. Feature-rich with excellent automation and a strong focus on value.

Cons

Zoho Desk's interface can feel cluttered. The mobile app has limitations, and the free plan is restrictive. These factors slightly hinder an otherwise strong help desk solution.

Pros

Easy and well-organized user interface, simple navigation. I can group tickets from email, social media and chat into the same platform.

Cons

The mobile app is useful but it's not as good and complete as the desktop version. When handling large data sets in reports, sometimes I noticed some lags.

Pros

Email management, this was the whole reason the company I work for got Zoho desk. We have been using just a normal email provider and it made it hard for us to maintain accountability if a colleague did not sign the email with their name. Zoho desk made it easy to make sure the workload was evenly assigned and provided us with the ability to maintain accountability when errors were made with customer responses. When new emails came in it would assign it to whoever was working emails for that time being, if the person who got assigned the emails wasn't able to respond with or know the answer to the question the customer was asking it would be easy for them to reassign the emails to somebody else that would be able to respond correctly. The integration of Zoho desk was easy it didn't take us long to get the hang of it.

Cons

The one thing I least like about the whole task was the ability to merge tickets. We weren't able to really merge them as quickly and easily as we thought we would be able to, even though this might have been due to our Administration disabling the ability for us to do so, it would be nice if that option was just kept open.

I like Zoho Desk for its user-friendly interface, and seamless integration with other Zoho applications,

The software's learning curve is one drawback, especially for new users who might need some time to become used to its features and functionalities. Some users have also mentioned sporadic speed concerns, such as delayed loading times during periods of high usage.

Pros

I've had an easy time creating dashboards and using Desk to track all of our service tickets. I am easily able to create customers and accounts on the fly while generating a service ticket, and was able to tie it in to our support email.

Still, it's a handy asset for businesses in all sorts of industries. If you just need a simple email ticketing system, it's a breeze to use. But if you want to dive into the knowledgebase features, it's a good idea to take some time to get the hang of it and make the most of what it offers.

Cons

It can get quite annoying when we're unable to locate the desired functionality or figure out how to put it into action. Therefore, having advanced features made more user-friendly or accompanied by usage tips would be greatly beneficial.

Pros

We use Zoho Desk on a daily basis for several projects and to cover different needs and all I gotta say is that it is a ''must have'' app for most businesses. The adaptability, connectivity with other apps, ease of use, and configuration simply exceed expectations.
