We created Zest Desk to solve the real challenges BigCommerce merchants face every day: inefficient manual data entry, complicated mid-call order modifications, and frustrated customer service teams. Our solution accelerates order processing, minimizes errors, and ultimately delivers a better experience for both support staff and customers.
The Challenge
As a BigCommerce implementation partner, we noticed that phone ordering is a pain point for BigCommerce merchants, especially for B2B and high-volume brands.
Support teams were slowed by:
- Complex, multi-destination shipments are hard to manage within the native cart flow.
- Modifying orders mid-process by adding/removing recipients or items often requires restarting the order manually.
- Manual address entry leads to typos and delays.
- Large or B2B orders can overwhelm customer service teams without a streamlined workflow.
- Mistakes slow orders, cause friction, and frustrate customers.
Our Approach
We developed Zest Desk to solve a very specific challenge for BigCommerce merchants: the inefficiencies and frustrations of handling phone orders in real time. Customer service teams needed a faster, more flexible way to manage complex orders, especially those with multiple shipments, and mid-call edits.
Zest Desk reimagines the ordering experience by flipping the process, starting with shipment details and recipients, then building the order around them. It’s built to support large-volume phone orders, on-the-fly changes, and customer data visibility, all while integrating seamlessly with BigCommerce. Every feature was intentionally designed to streamline workflows, reduce errors, and empower support teams to serve customers more efficiently and accurately.
