Trusted by 4500+ high-growth global companies:
Zendesk is built for enterprise — with enterprise complexity and enterprise pricing to match. For growing teams, it means per-agent fees that spiral, add-ons for basic features, and months of setup. Gleap gives you AI-powered support, live chat, bug reporting, and a product feedback loop — all in one platform with unlimited seats and no hidden costs.
Zendesk charges per agent per month — and costs multiply fast with every new hire. With Gleap, you get unlimited seats included. Invite your whole team to collaborate on support without watching your bill grow.
Zendesk gates AI, automation, and QA behind paid add-ons that can double your bill. Gleap's AI bot Kai is included out of the box — resolving tickets, running workflows, and surfacing help articles from day one.
Zendesk handles conversations but can't capture visual bug reports or product feedback. Gleap includes in-app bug reporting with screenshots, console logs, and device metadata — plus a public roadmap that closes the loop between support and product.
