    When Zendesk is the right call

    Consider Zendesk when these requirements matter.

    • Your service operation depends on its ticket lifecycle, channels, integrations or reporting.
    • A required capability, control or integration is proven there and has not been demonstrated in Instaconnect.

    Choose the workflow your team can operate.
