What’s great about Zendesk?
This one’s easy: Zendesk is simply one of the best and biggest customer support solutions out there. They’ve been wowing customers and support teams from small startups to large corporations since 2007 with messaging, support, and CRM software.
What’s great about Ultimate?
Recognizing the growing need for automation across all industries, Ultimate is at the forefront of no-code, AI-powered, chat, email, and messaging support. We enable brands to be there for their customers 24/7 — in over 100 languages.
Despite our ability to reach automation rates of well over 50% with a rapid time to value (go live in under 3 weeks!), we at Ultimate offer automation designed to resolve, not just deflect.
Learn how Ultimate's AI-powered automation helps maximize Zendesk's capabilities.
Resolution rates are more likely to improve through personalization when:
- you’re able to use your own historical data (rather than generic benchmark data) to create intents and personalize conversations,
- you offer more than FAQ-based gatekeeper chatbots, such as virtual agents powered by NLP technology, ensuring your AI models continue to learn with each real life customer interaction,
...and we at Ultimate are certified pros at both.
Why are we better together?
