Interactive Messaging Templates vs Notify

Unlock the power of interactive messages Interactive message structures like quick replies, carousels, and other visual message types have increasingly become an expectation when crafting engaging and effortless interactions with bots. Until now however, once the user is connected to a support agent these powerful message components have no longer been available, replaced instead by plain-text conversation. This app enables the creation and management of 'Messaging Templates' that unlock the ability for agents to harness the power of these interactive and engaging media types in human-to-human messaging conversations Note: This app will require you to have an active Sunshine Conversations license (included in Suite Professional plans and above). If you would like to learn more about purchasing a Sunshine Conversations license, then please speak to your Zendesk representative who will be happy to help.

Deliver notifications right where agents work Stop overloading your team with emails, reduce swivel chairing and start getting actionable notifications inside Zendesk instead. The Notify app delivers millions of messages every month. That means millions of emails are saved from agent inboxes helping them be more productive! The Notify app makes it really easy to reconfigure any of your triggers to include an banner notification delivered right within Zendesk. You get fine-grained control over who should receive it, how it should appear and the agent simply has to click on it to be taken to the ticket it concerns. Notifications could be for anything really but have proven extremely useful for: New tickets that need to be triaged When a ticket is assigned to an agent Re-opened tickets and customer messages for the assignee When SLA deadlines are approaching When negative (or a positive) customer satisfaction survey is received A ticket is given a high or urgent priority When someone in your team created a response Features Agents receive popup notifications generated from triggers in the top right corner of Zendesk Support. Agents can track the history of their notifications, and if desired, dismiss them once actioned. Notifications can be targeted to specific group(s) and/or agent(s). Choose the appearance such as icon, text and level (notice, alert or error) See a history of activity in your account and see who has dismissed the notification Super easy interface for admin to add notifications to new or existing triggers/automations. Data handling Minimal data is processed by the app. Notifications are generally short messages that link to tickets by ID and do not contain any sensitive data that may be present on the ticket. Notifications are automatically deleted after a few months. Bundle pricing Get all SweetHawk apps bundled in the SweetHawk Suite.
