We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The email traffic analysis feature is very useful.""We can use the dashboard to see which Exchange servers are currently having issues, their health, and other details. The GUI is very good."

"The stability has been very good.""Zendesk Support has a lot of good APIs.""The most valuable features of Zendesk Support are collaboration, reports, and a self-service portal. The customer and team can see all the information needed from the portal.""Its agility and simplicity are the most valuable features. This tool is very user-friendly.""I found the user experience with vendors on Zendesk to be straightforward, especially when it comes to understanding and searching for specific tickets. The search and navigation tools are easy to use, and I haven't encountered any issues with delays or communication gaps in ticket resolutions.""The initial setup is simple and straightforward.""It has good management, the ability to sign tickets based on content, the multi-channel support, the self service portal, the integration with Salesforce, the setup process, and the product features as we are currently using them.""The product offers very good management. It has a great ability to assign tickets based on content."

Cons
"I am primarily interested in reporting and automation improvements.""There is room for improvement in the reporting, maybe having more customizable reports would be good."

More ManageEngine Exchange Reporter Plus Cons →

"You couldn't give administrative access to new hires.""The solution could integrate better with QR codes from some websites such as Facebook.""Sometimes if there was a way to just flag the actual issue out of those email chains - that would be really helpful.""As per me, there arent much significant issues or areas for improvement with Zendesk, as my usage of it is limited. I appreciate its ability to organize tickets effectively based on tags, allowing me to easily gather and analyze customer feedback and requests.""The dashboard could be better.""If I write an article, and I have a team of 30 people, and they all have a Zendesk account, when I write an article, I send them an email. "Hey guys, I just wrote this article. It's one of the most popular topics this month on which we are not covered. Please check it and make sure that you include it in your resolutions". The issue is, once I send it to those 30 people, and they open it, the next morning, that article is the most popular article.""Zendesk Guide could be improved by allowing us to put our assets in one location. What happens now for each article, for example, is we have to upload the images for that article to that location, so the image reuse is still not something that they have perfected. If they could allow us to update all the images in one location, and then pull the image from there, it would be easier when working on Multibrand projects. There are no Multibrand updates available—we have to update each brand manually. For my company, I have come up with an API tool which allows me to push the content to multiple brands together, but if you don't have something like that, you have to manually do it.""One of the drawbacks of Zendesk is that it doesn't provide a secure way for us to send data. So, we usually use a secure SharePoint folder link. We put that in the Zendesk ticket so that the requester has a secure way of getting to their data."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I would rate the pricing a four out of ten, where one is low price and ten is high price. It is affordable."
  • "The pricing of Exchange Reporter Plus is very reasonable."
  • More ManageEngine Exchange Reporter Plus Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "We pay for the solution on a yearly basis and my understanding is that the cost is about $30,000. That's the cost for 24 to 25 agents."
  • "The price is very competitive."
  • "Zendesk's licensing is not cheap. For Enterprise, we are paying $200 per agent. It's a per-month cost, so it's pretty steep. There are some services you need to pay extra for. For example, with Zendesk Guide, we had to buy the most expensive offering in order to get Multibrand and everything. We also had to pay a lot of money for themes."
  • "There are different plans that are offered. We are using the entry-level plan. The overall price of the solution should be reduced. The price is too high."
  • "You have to pay extra for better support. So it's not only the license that you pay for, but you have to pay extra for the support as well."
