1-2The Panel's Take
Zendesk is the enterprise standard for customer support with ticketing, live chat, knowledge base, and AI-powered automations. Reliable but increasingly expensive and complex.

“Robust API and marketplace. Building custom apps and integrations is well-supported. Webhooks and triggers are powerful.”
“Bloated, expensive, and the UI hasn't meaningfully improved in years. Intercom and Freshdesk offer better value.”
“The help center themes are limited and customization requires coding. Not the most design-friendly support platform.”
