Understanding the Zendesk Benchmark

Learn how the Zendesk Benchmark measures customer satisfaction using key metrics.

What is the Zendesk Benchmark and how does it work?

The Zendesk Benchmark is a tool that helps you measure customer satisfaction by comparing your key metrics with those of thousands of other organizations. It focuses on three main metrics: customer satisfaction, first reply time, and new ticket volume. These metrics are calculated based on calendar hours, not your business hours, allowing you to evaluate your performance against industry standards. The benchmark is calculated using data from companies across 140 countries, ensuring a broad and fair comparison. Learn more about the Zendesk Benchmarkhere.
