Why Trengo is the right alternative to Zendesk

OMNICHANNEL

Easy interface and modern channels

Switching between inboxes and multiple accounts complicates work. Start working with a clear  and user-friendly interface. Your team can work from one inbox, where all communication channels, integrations, and customer data come together.
From one inbox your team can tackle conversations, manage channels, and dive into data intelligence.

PRICING

Reasonable prices for SMBs

Trengo is the Zendesk alternative built for SMBs and our Essentials, Boost, and Pro packages reflect that. The most expensive plan is cheaper than Zendesk’s. We’ll let the prices speak for themselves.
The Zendesk SMB pricing plan is 3x times the price of Trengo’s best-value plan, while their starter plan is double the price of ours.

What our customers say about Trengo

I love the possibility of having a single place to receive every customer service inquiry from different platforms. We can assign tickets to other colleagues and be updated in real time with internal comments.
Stefano G.
Trengo allows us to centralize all communication, both internally and with clients, across channels. From WhatsApp to email, and Facebook Messenges to live chat messages, there is now a single place to manage everything.

You can communicate with customers and employees alike and get immediate response. The friendly user interface is what's most appealing and wonderful to use. I can recommend this platform to anyone.
Ihab B.
Operations Manager E-Commerce
I'm not one to leave reviews but Trengo has been a game changer for us. As a small e-commerce business our small team struggled to keep on top of the many channels our customers contacted us by.

One of the best things about Trengo is its powerful automation and collaboration features. The ability to automate repetitive tasks, such as assigning tickets or tagging conversations, saves me and my team a lot of time and effort.
