We performed a comparison between monday.com and Zendesk based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two CRM solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I really enjoy all the additional columns you can add to your Monday pulses to cater to what information you need."
"You can create a group of tasks and can write down sub-tasks under each task."
"The flexibility to create any sort of format has been very valuable."
"Guest access for the client significantly increases their loyalty and understanding of the value of what we do for them."
"The subitems make it crystal clear what tasks are done, in progress, or complete."
"We have project overviews to keep track of each client and project and I can also see what the other managers are doing."
"We use the status column quite frequently and the search bar to easily find specific customers and orders."
"The solution provides a one-stop place for notes, progress, and sharing the status of projects."
"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 product offers very good management. It has a great ability to assign tickets based on content."
"The initial setup is simple and straightforward."
"It's very convenient to use."
"Its agility and simplicity are the most valuable features. This tool is very user-friendly."
"One of the most valuable features is that Zendesk gives you a lot of configurability, and a lot of leeway in terms of customizing the look and theme. Zendesk offers you the facility to design your own landing page, as well as the look and feel of the entire knowledge base. At the same time, they offer themes that you can simply purchase and implement. Either way, it can really be turned into the right look and feel of the knowledge base required by our company, which is very important—if you have a bland-looking page, most of the time, people will lose interest. Zendesk also allows you to test the customizations before you publish it. It gives you a sandbox location where you can test everything new that you're trying to create and publish, which is very interesting."
"It is a scalable solution."
"It's a very stable tool, very powerful."
"I would like to see an app version similar to Teams, or even have them integrate with Teams."
"We'd like more automation."
"Expanding the analysis to contain all boards in a specific folder without having to add them manually would be ideal."
"There are a lot of ways that monday.com does not work, for example, when it comes to HRMS. A particular employee can't apply for leave or check the status of a leave request or check his 401(k) status. Those are things that are missing in monday.com."
"I'd like better integration with other services."
"Once timers are cleared, there is no way to recover this data."
"We would like to see better Microsoft Outlook integration."
"I'm unable to send messages or update any projects from my tablet or cell phone which makes it hard when you are in the field all day and can't be at your desk."
"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."
"The solution could integrate better with QR codes from some websites such as Facebook."
"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."
"You couldn't give administrative access to new hires."
"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 support team is time-consuming, and they don't find the answer to our problem."
"There is always a network issue with Zendesk. But we don’t know whether it is managed. The network issue is that when I call, it does not let us."
"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."
