Understanding Organizations and Groups in Zendesk

Learn how organizations and groups in Zendesk help manage users and streamline ticket workflows effectively.

What are organizations and groups in Zendesk?

Organizations and groups in Zendesk are tools to manage users and streamline ticket workflows.

Organizations typically consist of end users, but can also include team members. They help track requests and can allow users within an organization to view each other's tickets, reducing duplicate requests. Groups, on the other hand, are collections of team members based on shared criteria. They are essential for organizing agents and can support organizations by handling tickets from specific user groups. For more details, visit theoriginal link.
