Better Customer Service for eBay, Amazon and More

Zendesk is a complete customer service solution, especially with ChannelReply added in. Among its numerous capabilities, Zendesk:

  • Organizes customer requests from eBay, Amazon, Walmart, Shopify, email, social media and more on one screen.
  • Tracks agent replies and, if desired, much more.
  • Lets you automatically route messages to the correct agent.
  • Makes creating and using macros (canned responses) and automated replies a snap.
  • Enables you to manage cases in bulk.
  • Allows you to create a self-service framework to cut down on common requests.

It also integrates with Salesforce, making eBay/Salesforce and Amazon/Salesforce integrations possible, plus over 1,100 other apps.

Originally, Zendesk couldn’t display messages forwarded from Amazon and eBay correctly. It was world-renowned as a helpdesk, but simply not worth the frustrations for most marketplace sellers.

That changed when we we developed ChannelReply to support our own eBay customers from Zendesk. In 2015, we released our solution to all Zendesk users, and it has just kept growing since.

ChannelReply now connects half a dozen online selling platforms to Zendesk. And instead of messages showing up as a jumble, they arrive as threaded and organized tickets—the way customer support with Zendesk is meant to be. Click here to learn more.
