Zendesk Text Messaging
Support customers through the messaging channels they love. Heymarket’s Zendesk text messaging integration allows agents to read and reply to texts alongside emails, improving response times. Seamlessly keep track of customer support, operations, and sales texts without leaving the Zendesk interface.
Read and Reply to SMS Support Tickets
Manage incoming texts in the Heymarket widget, accessible anywhere within the Zendesk interface. Agents can read customer text messages alongside emails, which are separated by a tab. Leverage Zendesk macros, assignments, tags, and other favorite features.
Sync Texting with Zendesk
Heymarket and Zendesk sync to keep your data accurate and save you time. Incoming texts automatically create tickets in Zendesk. If you text customers from the Heymarket platform, messages upload to Zendesk and are associated with the relevant Zendesk ticket. If customers’ tickets don’t exist in Zendesk, Heymarket creates them under the appropriate contact.
Get a 360-Degree View of Each Customer
Use the Heymarket contact pane to get a full view of past customer conversations. Access text messages, custom fields, orders, shared media, and more. Move seamlessly between text messaging and email when communicating with a customer. With full context always on hand, your team can focus on delivering a consistent and personalized experience.
Keep Agents Productive and Focused
Improve collaboration with team-focused features. Assign incoming messages to the right team member and work together behind the scenes with private messages. Respond to and resolve tickets faster with auto replies and scheduled messages. Ensure messages don’t fall through the cracks with reminders.
Centralize Customer Messages
Manage all messages from SMS and popular messaging channels, including Facebook Messenger, Instagram Messenger, WhatsApp, Google’s Business Messages, and Apple Messages for Business. Reply to messages sent through any of these channels from Zendesk. Save time by messaging from one centralized place.
