Zendesk Support is a web-based SaaS (software as a service) application that runs in a web browser.

Before you use Support, make sure your computer meets or exceeds the minimum hardware requirements for your operating system (Windows or macOS). See Microsoft or Apple's website for the requirements.

Zendesk Support is tested with the following web browsers running in Windows or macOS. Your browser must be a stable release version; not an alpha, beta, nightly, or development build. This applies to all browsers, regardless of operating system.

To use Insights/GoodData, you must have at least 1GB or more of RAM available and the ability to support all of the user interface browsers listed below. For a full list of GoodData requirements see, GoodData system requirements.

Tip: Our testing suggests that Google Chrome provides the best performance when running Zendesk. 

For the agent and administrator user interface:

  • Google Chrome: latest two versions
  • Mozilla Firefox: latest two versions
  • Apple Safari: latest two versions
  • Microsoft Edge: latest two versions
Browser configuration:
  • JavaScript must be enabled
  • Cookies must be enabled
  • Local storage must be enabled
  • TLS v1.2 or above

Some popular, industry-standard browsers restrict how cookies are recognized and used. For more information, see Zendesk support for cookie-restricted browsers (Safari, Chrome).
