Options for Merging Zendesk Accounts Explained

Discover the three main options for merging Zendesk accounts: self-service, partner assistance, and professional services. Choose the best fit for you.

What are the options for merging Zendesk accounts?

When it comes to merging Zendesk accounts, you have three main options: self-service migration using Zendesk's API, working with a Zendesk partner, or using Zendesk's paid Professional Services.

The self-service option involves using the API to export and import data, which requires technical knowledge. Alternatively, you can collaborate with a Zendesk partner who can manage the migration for you. Lastly, Zendesk's Professional Services team can handle the migration for a fee, providing a more hands-off approach. Each option has its own benefits, so consider your resources and needs when deciding.
