askotter reads HubSpot and Zendesk side by side and puts both in one report for the business. The owner sees how activity in one leads to results in the other, gets an alert when a number moves and can ask questions by text.

From Zendesk: Ticket volume and resolution, CSAT scores, Agent performance.
Status: Zendesk is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.

why connect them

Why connect HubSpot and Zendesk

HubSpot contacts sit beside GA4 visits, ad clicks and payments. Each customer has a source. It fits into our digital marketing services work.

matching the records

How HubSpot and Zendesk records line up

HubSpot and Zendesk both store the customer's email address. askotter lowercases and trims it on both sides before matching, so the same person shows up as one customer across the two tools.

Both tools can hold a phone number. Numbers are normalised to one international format before matching, which catches customers who never gave an email.

Shared between the two: the customer email address, the phone number and the company or account.

Zendesk is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.

What each tool sees on its ownShow less

HubSpot on its own

HubSpot sees the contact and the deal. It cannot see money collected outside it, or ad spend on platforms it is not connected to.

Timing. HubSpot updates contact and deal properties as they change, and keeps the original source and first page seen on each contact.

Access. A HubSpot private app or OAuth connection with read-only CRM scopes.

Zendesk on its own

Zendesk sees the complaint and how it was handled. It cannot see what the customer is worth or whether they bought again.

Timing. Zendesk timestamps every ticket, reply and status change.

Access. The Zendesk Support API with a read-only token.
