Zendesk Lauded by Frost & Sullivan for Leading the Customer Experience Market with Full-stack Customer Services

Zendesk's ability to help companies across the spectrum scale according to their business needs endows it with a huge advantage in turbulent market conditions

SÃO PAULO, Nov. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Based on its recent analysis of the Latin American customer experience market, Frost & Sullivan recognizes Zendesk with the 2021 Latin America Customer Value Leadership Award. Zendesk’s quick-deploying, out-of-box services are powerful business accelerators for clients and can be scaled up to meet the needs of start-ups, small businesses, and large enterprises. The company offers a full range of customer experience services, including customer support, sales, open customer relationship management (CRM) platform, and application marketplace.

“Zendesk demonstrates a strong customer support culture, evident in its product development and launches. The company creates a superior customer experience and engagement by ensuring the client’s agents and teams are prepared to implement new products successfully. The company then provides a configurable, customizable, and extensible product to ensure customer success,” said Juan Gonzalez, Research Director. “Zendesk’s broad portfolio is heavily customizable and can be scaled-up to meet the specific needs of clients.”

Some of Zendesk’s outstanding solutions include a ticketing system, live chat and messaging, voice, help center, community forums, reporting and analytics, an answer bot, and a sales CRM product. These tools are finding application in various industries, including education, finance, government, healthcare, manufacturing, media, retail, software, and telecommunications. These industries have benefitted greatly from Zendesk’s quick response times during the COVID-19 pandemic when they had to handle the huge volume of customer demands without compromising quality.

While Zendesk’s product offerings are dynamic, the company’s true value lies in its own customer service. Zendesk’s Voice of the Customer (VoC) program gathers customer feedback about products and services while allowing customers to collaborate on new products that suit their needs. A few prominent solutions that have emerged from these endeavors to enhance customer satisfaction through collaborative product development include Zendesk Messaging, Zendesk Talk, and Zendesk Sell.

“In the future, Zendesk will focus on empowering emerging companies that need help building their customer experience solutions,” noted Elizabeth Whynott, Best Practices Research Analyst. “Zendesk’s ability to equip both start-ups and well-established enterprises with end-to-end customer relationship solutions will power its expansion efforts in Latin America and position it for continued growth.”

Each year, Frost & Sullivan bestows this award upon the company that demonstrates excellence in growth and customer value. Attaining loyal customers that become brand advocates allows the company to grow and achieve a market leadership position. This award recognizes a company’s increased market share over time based on its commitment to the customer at each stage of the buying cycle and its ability to continuing nurturing the relationship.

Frost & Sullivan Best Practices Awards recognize companies in a variety of regional and global markets for demonstrating outstanding achievement and superior performance in areas such as leadership, technological innovation, customer service, and strategic product development. Industry analysts compare market participants and measure performance through in-depth interviews, analyses, and extensive secondary research to identify the industry’s best practices.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
