Zendesk and Certainly: how they work together

So, why are Zendesk and Certainly so great together? In short, Certainly takes care of the first-line support. By providing instant answers to frequent customer queries and by guiding clients along the buyer journey, this conversational AI chatbot handles basic customer interactions – so your agents don’t have to.

When the chatbot reaches its limits, it diverts customers to your support team in Zendesk, providing agents with all the necessary information to handle the request smoothly. The result?

Use the Zendesk platform to its full extent

But there’s more. Certainly also enables integration with native Zendesk products such as Chat, Support, Help Center Articles, and Sunshine. That way, you can use a chatbot for channels like WhatsApp, Twitter, Facebook Messenger, and more. That’s how Zendesk and Certainly make multichannel support easy for customers and agents.

By integrating different channels, Zendesk becomes your company’s customer support hub. Your agents get an overview of every customer query in one place – no matter the channel. Email, WhatsApp, Facebook, or chat: everything is centralised, so your agents won’t miss a thing.
