Mobile Experience in Zoho Desk

Mobile Experience in Zoho Desk

Nowadays, mobile apps are a mainstay of everyday life. Their ubiquity and popularity in large part is due to how convenient they are. Mobile apps make it possible to pay bills while lying in bed, check emails while commuting to work, and approve refunds while basking in the sun.

Adding a mobile app to your company's CX tech stack provides great flexibility to your employees. Agents can help customers from anywhere, anytime, with every bit of context at hand, resulting in faster resolutions and elevated customer experiences. Supervisors can assign tickets, monitor anomalies, handle escalations, and more, even when they're not in the office. 
For customers, a branded mobile app serves as an exclusive support line through which they can reach your team instantly. It also doubles as a personalized marketing channel that you can use to send alerts, updates, and promotions, ensuring that your brand is always top of mind. 

With Zoho Desk, you can provide seamless, mobile experiences to your agents and customers alike. We offer both prebuilt out-of-the-box applications and on-demand custom mobile solutions. You can also build your own apps by leveraging our all-encompassing software development kits (SDKs).
