Alternatives to Renaming Zendesk Subdomain
What are the alternatives to renaming my Zendesk subdomain?
Instead of renaming your Zendesk subdomain, consider changing your account name or setting up host mapping. Host mapping allows you to change the URL your customers see without altering your Zendesk account's address.
This approach is less disruptive and avoids the immediate effects of a subdomain change, such as chat inaccessibility and delays in adding new support addresses. Evaluate these alternatives to determine the best option for your needs.
