Subject: Accessibility of the Zendesk Help Desk Web App
No previous message | No next message
At Tenon, we looked at pretty much all the players out there, including
ZenDesk. We were almost settled on ZenDesk, mostly because of its
features. ZenDesk and FreshDesk are both excellent in terms of their
features but they fall pretty short on accessibility. ZenDesk is not
terrible, especially on the parts that customers actually use. The admin
areas are a different story.
We ultimately decided on Desk.com. It isn't perfect, either, but we feel
the myriad of support options will allow any user to get the support they
need even if one channel is problematic. Plus, we know that Salesforce, as
a company, has a focus on accessibility. That doesn't mean they're perfect
but we know that if we have our customers complain, we can pass that
feedback on and it'll be taken seriously.
