FAQ

Geckoboard integrates with Zendesk Support, Zendesk Chat, Zendesk Talk, Zendesk QA and Zendesk Sell through separate integrations.

If you’re using omnichannel routing, you can use Geckoboard’s standalone Zendesk Agent Status integration to monitor agent availability and workload across channels in real-time.

A range of Zendesk Messaging metrics can be accessed through both our Support and Agent Status integrations.

Popular metrics from our Zendesk integrations include:
  • Support: first reply time, full resolution time, ticket volume, unsolved tickets, unassigned tickets, open tickets, top ticket solvers, tickets by channel, group, agent or tag, CSAT, CSAT comment feed, percent of tickets with a rating, SLA achievement rate, SLA breached tickets, tickets nearing SLA breach, one-touch ticket rate, requester wait time, on-hold time, number of agent replies, number of agent updates, average replies per ticket, average replies per solved ticket, and more.
  • Chat: chat volume, missed chats, chats by tag, chats in queue, acceptance rate, average wait time, chats currently being served, chat duration, response time, agents currently online, away or invisible.
  • Talk: agent availability, agents on wrap up, call volume, average time to answer, longest wait time, wrap up time, abandonment rate, answer rate, average call duration, average wrap up time, missed calls, voicemails, callbacks waiting, and more.
  • QA: average quality score for the whole team, individual quality scores, highest scores, review feed.
  • Messaging (via Support integration): active in queue, active assigned, inactive in queue, average time in queue, longest time in queue, average handle time, longest handle time, and more.
  • Sell: revenue, pipeline, number of deals, sales leaderboards, and more.

Most metrics can also be filtered by the following dimensions to give even more precision — assignee, brand, channel, group, priority, status, tag or custom field.

The best way to check if a specific metric is supported by our integration though is to try it for yourself. Alternatively, ask our friendly support team.

Geckoboard is ideal for creating an up-to-date view of metrics you, your team or stakeholders should be regularly monitoring, which can include data from several sources.

Examples might include dashboards for monitoring high level metrics from across your whole support operation, or more specific dashboards focused around metrics related to a specific number or even specific agents. For inspiration, check out our Zendesk dashboard examples.

Zendesk Support widgets update every 10 minutes, Zendesk Chat every 1 minute, Zendesk Talk every 30 seconds and Zendesk Sell every 25 minutes for Call mentrics, and 30 minutes for Deal metrics. Zendesk Agent Status widgets update every 30 seconds. Messaging metrics update instantly. See this help article for refresh rates of all our other data sources.

Absolutely, and you can add metrics from different Zendesk accounts to the same dashboard too.
