Each ticket constitutes a customer
interaction, making it a good
measure of the frequency and
scale of your customer touches.
Customers increasingly serve
themselves via the web through
well-crafted online forums, FAQs
and knowledge bases.
On average, Zendesk-powered
help desks handle more than
600 tickets per month, and
drive more than 2,600 page

so we need to make sure we’re
delighting our customers as
efficiently as possible. This is why
first-response time is a great
efficiency measure. The average
first-response time across all
Zendesk tickets is over 23.6 hours.
