One of the most common questions an online retailer’s customer service team hears is, “When is my package actually coming?” This is where a new app from parcelLab comes to the rescue, which can be easily downloaded via the Zendesk Marketplace and seamlessly integrates into the workflow in the sidebar of the Zendesk screen.
If a customer asks about the order status, customer service no longer has to spend an average of two to three minutes researching various systems for the answer, as they did in the past. Instead, they simply have to enter the order number in a user-friendly form, or the number is stored in the support ticket, and receive all the relevant information on the whereabouts of the package in a matter of seconds – including an indication of when this information was last updated. By the way, this support also works for multiple packages per order. If the order number is already stored in the support ticket, the app automatically reads out all relevant tracking statuses and displays them to the support employee. Without a single click, directly available in the data record.

After saving the settings, the app is usable from the Zendesk screen.
