The Bottom Line

Why businesses switch from Zendesk to Reputoo

It Answers the Phone Too

Reputoo's agent answers ordinary phone calls as well as WhatsApp — same knowledge, same booking flow, in 36 languages — so nothing is missed after hours.

Revenue Attribution

Reputoo ties each WhatsApp broadcast to the orders and bookings it produced, so you can see which messages earned their cost.

Compliance First

Opt-in records checked at send time, a built-in opt-out and a compliance dashboard for Meta's messaging policy.

When Zendesk is the better choice

Reputoo is not the right answer for every business, and a comparison that pretended otherwise would not be worth reading.

Your support function is built on Zendesk with established workflows, custom roles and compliance reporting. WhatsApp should be a channel inside it, not a reason to relocate the support desk.
