What is Zoho Desk?

Zoho Desk is a cloud-based help desk and ticketing platform from Zoho Corporation that unifies email, phone, chat, social media, and web form support into a single omnichannel inbox. It offers a free plan for up to three agents, plus Express, Standard, Professional, and Enterprise paid tiers that progressively add live chat, telephony, its Zia AI assistant, blueprints, and multi-brand help centers.
