Deciding the Number of Ticket Forms in Zendesk

Find out how to determine the right number of ticket forms in Zendesk by balancing simplicity with the need for specific information.

What should I consider when deciding the number of ticket forms in Zendesk?

When deciding the number of ticket forms in Zendesk, consider the balance between simplicity and specificity. Think about how many forms you want your customers and agents to choose from, aiming for a manageable number that doesn't overwhelm users. Consider whether you need different forms for each process, product, or team, and whether you have use cases for agent-only forms.

It's important to provide a generic form for unexpected requests while ensuring that specific forms collect the necessary information for each type of request. This balance will help you maintain efficiency and clarity in your support process.
