Help desk software that creates better customer experiences for your business

What does help desk software do?

A helpdesk is technology that executes a few core tasks, and ideally far more, acting as a partner as you scale. Traditionally, a help desk defines its goals and processes based on government and corporate best practices such as ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library). The goal within ITIL when dealing with customer issues or incidents specifically is to "restore normal service operation as quickly as possible and minimize the adverse effect on business operations,” Mikkel Svane, CEO of Zendesk, once said. Not all help desk solutions are created equal and not all help desk solutions do the same things. That said, here are the basics:

• Handle customer questions and issues in a systematic way: from intake, managing, and organizing, to response and resolution, and ultimately, reporting
• Allow for multi-channel support. This means that you choose the channels that are right for your customers—phone, live chat, texting, email
• Self-service capabilities. What does your ideal knowledge base look like? The right service desk lets you take your team’s institutional knowledge and put it to work for your company, internally, and all your customers in a self-service portal
• Tracking and analytics. How quickly were support requests first answered and ultimately resolved? How happy was the customer?
• Integrations. Apps, widgets, and add-ons can be lifesavers in the present and integral to future growth

How Zendesk help desk software solves support problems

Customer satisfaction is critical to most every successful business, and there are two main kinds of customers: the external kind, the people you created your business to serve, and also the internal kind, your employees. Helpdesk software that’s seamless and omnichannel is now the standard. But what does it mean, long term, to satisfy your customer’s needs? Do positive interactions have the same long-term impact as negative ones? According to The 2018 Zendesk Customer Service Survey Report, for 97% of respondents, bad customer service changes buying behavior, and for 87%, good customer service—by phone, live chat, email, et cetera—changed buying behavior.
