Story
Inside Pure Storage, customer support used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in information technology groups working out of the United States. Support agents needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Pure Storage uses WFM from Zendesk as the working layer for support tickets. Zendesk provides customer service software for ticketing, messaging, and knowledge used by support organizations. The practical change is simple: customer support has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Pure Storage gets from Zendesk is a durable place to run customer support and a way for support agents to see the same support tickets at the same time.
