    Chose Desk.com (discontinued)

    Chose Kustomer
    The UI of Kustomer is a lot cooler than what we are using before. There are a lot of features that Kustomer has that make things easier and more convenient than Desk.com.

    Chose Kustomer
    The support we get with Kustomer is light years ahead. I was not an admin at the time we had Desk.com, but from a users point of view, Kustomer is a lot easier to use and much more intuitive.
