Zendesk’s CX Trends 2023 Report found that 40 per cent of business leaders now view customer support as a revenue driver. This growing number highlights the importance of first-class customer service to business success. Frighteningly, 73 per cent of customers will switch to a competitor after multiple bad experiences. And staying on top of your customer service is easier said than done, especially with so many data points, stats, and KPIs to try to decipher—let alone draw insights from.
The world is more unpredictable than ever before. Responding to constant economic, social, environmental, and political change, consumers are making more contradictory choices as they juggle what they need with what they want, and with what’s available.

Choosing the right software can be a nightmare. With so many acronyms, options, and features, making the right choice is no mean feat.

At Zendesk, we’re all about making your life simpler and better. It’s why our software is used the world-over. And why we’re dedicated to helping you get the best out of your Zendesk.

Staying on top of customer service can be tricky—especially when customers are demanding more. For example, Zendesk’s CX Trends 2023 Report found that only 56 per cent of customers say their support interactions over the past year have been positive. Ouch. But fear not, Zendesk triggers can help by automatically sending notifications, prioritising tickets, and flagging important deals.
