Zoho Desk Reviews

   Excellent Ticketing software with clean interface

   What I like the most is that it really is very intuitive and easy to use. It helps to control the tracking of every ticket in a easy way. Also one can import its customers without any problem. It has many other tools that can be useful regardless the item which company is using on day to day basis. It can start a live chat with the user and can go straight creating a ticket from this internment. Ticket tracking and escalation matrix enables company to track and manages customer complaints on time.

   April 2020 Inexpensive Customer Service Software

   Previous to using Zoho, we were managing all our CS in our email inbox. Items were getting lost or forgotten about and it was driving me crazy. Zoho has an excellent suite of products and this one is no exception! Easy to use (the basics at least). And, it's very inexpensive.

   🏁 Competitors: Zendesk, Salesforce Service Cloud

   👍 Pros:    Easy user interface|Great customer support|Highly customizable

   👎 Cons:    Few features are in beta

   Previous to using Zoho, we were managing all our CS in our email inbox. We used Zoho Desk when starting out when we needed a way to manage customer support outside of email. Zoho Desk is a basic customer support software - great that there is a free version for starting out.

   🏁 Competitors: Zendesk

   👍 Pros:    Easy to handel software setup|Easy to use interface|Automation and custom functions|24/7 support (chat and phone)

   An essential communication tool

   Intercom provides a lot of value to us. From live chat to email marketing and even helping us to create support documentation, Intercom handles a lot of key moving parts that are essential to keeping customers happy.

• I started affiliate marketing, but with a twist

  Use chatbots to automate customer service: Chatbots use natural language processing to communicate with customers and answer their questions. By integrating chatbots into your affiliate marketing strategy, you can automate customer service and increase engagement with potential customers. This can lead to more sales and higher commissions.

• How to embed a web application into another website via API?

  I am trying to create an application that will work on a customer's website. Much like tawk.to or intercom.com. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Here's how I'd figure out the go-to-market for a Customer Support SaaS

  My way of doing marketing starts with figuring out what my overall project will (or will not) be. In this case, I looked at the vendors like Zendesk, Intercom, Freshdesk, or Help Scout. They all have whizbang features such as live-chat, collaboration stuffs, automations and workflows. They bill per contact and addons. I’d emphasize a straightforward, fuss-free angle instead.

• Chat widget with react.js

  I wanted to know the best practices of developing a widget. So I went through the popular implementations of it. I liked Intercom's widget very much. It is written in React. I analyzed how it works. The minimal javascript is loaded async on the webpage. It is injecting an iframe with id intercom-frame. That iframe has a script in it's head with a source URl. Obviously it is React bundle. Source: about 2 years ago

• What PRODUCT TOUR software do you like for an early SaaS?

  If you're looking at it to guide new users through onboarding, Intercom is pretty good. Source: about 2 years ago
