Why choose Escalator?

Work better across teams
Need input from Finance, Product, or a third-party vendor? Escalator makes it simple to bring others in without cluttering the original ticket. Everyone sees what they need, nothing gets lost.

Send issues straight to the right place
Escalate to the right group or person with just a few clicks. Whether it’s another Zendesk agent or an external partner, Escalator routes tickets cleanly, with only the relevant details included.

Keep linked tickets connected
Split up a complex request, but keep everything tied together. Escalator tracks every sub-ticket, escalation, and related issue, so agents always have the full picture, no matter how the ticket evolves.

Keep customers in the loop
Even when a ticket’s been split or escalated, agents can continue updating the customer in the original thread. The customer never has to repeat themselves, and your team looks organized and responsive.

Adapt to your support style
Escalator doesn’t force you into a rigid workflow. Customize how tickets are escalated, what data gets copied, how sub-tickets behave, and more. It fits around your team, not the other way around.

Link, split, resolve

Escalator gives your team the structure it needs to manage complicated support requests, whether that means looping in a vendor, splitting a ticket between teams, or keeping linked issues visible across departments.

Works with both standard Zendesk views and Lovely Views.
