What's my plan?

Return on investment (ROI) is one of the most important factors to consider when you evaluate potential customer service solutions. You can use the Zendesk ROI calculator to answer a few simple questions about your use case and business volume. Based on the information you provide, the ROI calculator will dynamically generate the ROI for using Zendesk products.

Zendesk ROI estimates are based on industry and Zendesk benchmarks with the assumption of using a single integrated omnichannel solution. As a starting point, we collect KPI data from our customer base to establish improvement benchmarks. Then we use the estimates you provide for agent activity volume to determine how Zendesk can help your business.
