Zoho Quartz Extension for Zoho Desk

1. In a Nutshell

The Zoho Quartz Extension for Zoho Desk establishes a seamless connection between Zoho's screen recording diagnostics platform (Quartz) and the customer service platform (Desk). 

2. Availability

The Zoho Quartz extension for Zoho Desk is:
  1. Available free of cost on the Zoho Marketplace
  2. Installable by users on any paid plan of both Zoho Quartz and Zoho Desk.
  3. Available in all DCs

3. Overview

Zoho Quartz is a comprehensive issue management tool designed to streamline client support. It is a tool where your users can report issues and share visual feedback, and is designed to help identify and resolve issues faster through contextual recordings.

Zoho Desk is Zoho’s customer service software that helps businesses manage and resolve customer support tickets efficiently.

The Zoho Quartz extension for Zoho Desk combines the power of both platforms by embedding a Quartz widget directly into the Zoho Desk ticket interface, eliminating the need for support agents to switch between applications. 

When a customer submits their Quartz feedback via the shared link, it is automatically added to the corresponding Zoho Desk ticket as a private comment. The ticket will be reopened and its owner notified instantly. With the feedback embedded in the comment, agents can quickly access and act on the diagnostic insights from within Zoho Desk.

Key benefits of this extension include:
  1. Faster resolution: With the ability to share recording URLs, teams can reduce back-and-forth communication and resolve issues more efficiently.
  2. Seamless context sharing: By linking Quartz diagnostic sessions directly to Desk tickets, agents gain full visibility into the user's issue.
  3. Unified experience: Previously, Quartz and Desk operated in silos. This extension bridges the gap, enabling tighter integration and smoother collaboration between teams.
  4. Reduced ticket volume: Screen recordings provide immediate clarity, cutting down on follow-up emails and calls for issue clarification.
