Making CX work for your business!

Customer Experience Professional with a love of customer loyalty and red wine. 

Paul Bichsel

For years, customer support platforms were systems of record.

Tickets in. Tickets out.

What stood out at SKO 2026 was how clearly that thinking has changed.

Zendesk is now positioning itself as a system of action.

That means the platform is no longer just routing questions to humans.

It is actively resolving issues through AI, agents, and built-in feedback loops.

One platform.

One view.

Resolution as the outcome, not ticket handling.

This shift matters because it changes how CX teams design workflows and how leaders think about scale.

CX success is being redefined. Promptable analytics and AI-driven metrics are giving leaders and agents real-time insights they can act on, transforming decision-making from slow dashboards to instant, context-aware answers.

✔️ 82% of leaders say promptable analytics unlock insights in seconds that once took weeks
✔️ 78% of CX leaders say AI is forcing a rethink of success metrics
✔️ 91% of Zendesk CX leaders plan to have a promptable analytics hub live within 12 months

Measuring success has never been this fast, smart, or actionable. Learn more in the Zendesk #CXTrends 2026 report.

Customers want to know why AI makes the decisions it does. AI transparency is no longer optional; it’s expected. As AI becomes a natural part of service, consumers demand clear, plain-language explanations for automated decisions.

✅ 95% of consumers expect an explanation for AI-made decisions
✅ 80% of CX leaders say AI transparency will be non-negotiable within two years
✅ Zendesk agents are 1.3x more likely than non-Zendesk agents to say trust and transparency is a top expectation

Transparent AI builds trust, strengthens loyalty, and turns automation into a competitive advantage.

Personalization without memory isn’t personalization at all.

AI with contextual memory changes the entire customer relationship.
Not by being clever, but by being consistent.

When systems remember preferences, past issues, and timing, customers stop feeling like tickets and start feeling known.
That continuity is what turns good support into long-term loyalty.

The real shift here isn’t technology.
It’s expectation.

Customers now assume brands will remember them.
The brands that don’t will feel instantly outdated.

Speed is no longer a differentiator. It’s the minimum requirement.

Customers are drawing a hard line between brands that resolve issues immediately and those that don’t.
And they’re voting with their feet.

AI-driven support only works if it actually solves the problem.
Automation without resolution doesn’t save time. It wastes trust.

The winning teams are building systems that retrieve the right knowledge instantly and apply it accurately.
Fast answers. Fewer handoffs. No dead ends.

When conversations don’t carry over, everyone pays for it. ⏳🔁

Customers repeat information. Delays creep in. Teams aren’t doing less — systems just aren’t connected, so people spend time reconstructing context instead of helping.

A unified approach with Zendesk Suite keeps conversations moving forward, not restarting. That’s how you reduce friction and get back to supporting customers.

Big thanks to the SuccessCX crew for helping organisations make that connection. 🙌
