Can I use BIME Analytics to analyze my Zendesk data?
BIME Analytics has an existing Zendesk connector, which you can use to analyze your customer service data and compare it to other business metrics. For instance, e-commerce retailers can compare support volume to sales by segment, software vendors can track customer satisfaction alongside product adoption, and gaming companies can track the effect of game launches on support volumes.

What does this mean for data features like Zendesk Insights and Zopim’s new Premium plan?
Zendesk and Zopim customers will not see immediate changes. You will still have access to the great reporting features you already use today. Over time, customers will see BIME powering analytics across Zendesk products, but also adding additional capabilities for reporting on customer data stored in external sources. Stay tuned for more details.
