Zendesk Extension - Integrations - Online Help - Zoho CRM

Zendesk

Having your customers' details in a single place, always gives you the advantage of knowing your customer better; their interests, issues faced by them and all the communications that you had with them. It is better to know the issues they faced earlier, before contacting them.

This extension is supported only for the Leads, Contacts, Accounts and Deals modules. On installing this extension, two custom modules will be created: Zendesk Tickets and Zendesk Ticket Comments
