Find out what your peers are saying about Atlassian, Zendesk, Freshworks and others in Knowledge Management Software."I have found the ease of use of the ACD to be most valuable along with the inView dashboard."
"We are able to see the calls in queue and able to see if someone is available or not."
"inContact has helped our organization greatly by allowing us to see at a glance which agents are available to receive calls and those who are not, we are able to see why not."
"Customer support is terrific. The team is personable, informed, and responsive."
"It has the ability to edit the HTML, as well as the WYSIWYG."
"It's easier as a supervisor to do your job more efficiently. You can have multiple things open at once to watch everything, being able to take one look at a page and see everything you need rather then having to flip through multiple programs. This is such a time saver. I get a lot more done in my day due to being able to keep my opened programs down to a minimum."
"Being able to listen in on a call, which is exceptionally good with training."
"It is easy to look up and playback calls with this system as it categorizes the different types of calls that come through my call center. I like that inContact is always updating and continues to improve. The quality of its recorded calls is among the best that I have had experience with."
"The feature to move over my customer experience team tickets for different specialists is very valuable for my team."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The stability has been very good."
"Zendesk Support has a lot of good APIs."
"We rarely had issues with Zendesk."
"It's a very stable tool, very powerful."
"What is cool about Zendesk Guide is how it works together with others Zendesk products. Especially with support and with the analytics. Put those together for a small or medium-sized company and it's a really powerful tool."
"Its agility and simplicity are the most valuable features. This tool is very user-friendly."
"If you have hundreds of books, the initial download is slow."
"One of the biggest missing pieces is a link checker."
"I would like to see inView be a built-in feature of CXone rather than a separate platform, but everything else is terrific."
"MindTouch would greatly benefit by providing a GitHub pull request functionality to foster draft mode and open contribution writing."
"It is a hassle, if you are busy and caught up with something, that it will log you out."
"It could improve the quality of calls."
"inContact should offer a way to send faxes."
"I have noticed that occasionally the dashboard will freeze and some things may get stuck for a while. For example, if I have a dashboard open that shows how many calls are in queue and how many are currently being handled by agents, sometimes a call that an agent is handling will get stuck on the dashboard after the agent ends the call and the dashboard will show that the call is still a live call. Our tech team has explained this to us as a ghost call. After some time (or maybe many screen refreshes) the call will go away like it has just ended."
"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."
"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 support team is time-consuming, and they don't find the answer to our problem."
"Zendesk Guide's customization could be improved. I would like it to be easier and maybe open-sourced, so that if you have a developer in your company, you can do it yourself. Right now, that isn't allowed, so you need to have it done via the integrator. Another improvement—this is nit-picking—is that it could be less easy to make changes. Some things are so easy that they sometimes look a little amateur-ish. Most of the templates are built-in so they can be used directly, so they are very simple."
"The price of the solution should be reduced."
"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."
"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."
