When switching makes sense

A helpdesk no longer fits when your team jumps between several tools for one reply.

  • Missing shop data. Order and shipment are not in the ticket, so your team looks them up in the shop.
  • Returns on the side. Returns run in a second app that customer service cannot see.
  • AI as an add-on. Whether automatic replies are included in your chosen plan is something you have to check separately.

How ZYBR solves it

With ZYBR, shop data, returns and automation live in the same system, in every plan.

  1. Shop data in the ticket

    ZYBR retrieves live order and delivery details from Shopify and writes them into the reply draft.
  2. Returns in the same system

    The returns portal creates the DHL label and shares a system with your customer service.
  3. Automation by topic

    You choose by topic whether the AI replies automatically. Everything else waits as a draft in the ticket.
