description Zendesk Guide Overview
Zendesk Guide provides a way to publish and maintain a searchable help center within the broader Zendesk support system. Articles can explain common problems or document product use, giving customers an alternative to opening a ticket for every question. Customizable branding allows the help center to sit alongside a company's other customer-facing materials. Its connection with the support workflow makes it useful for organizations managing a substantial body of recurring questions, including larger businesses.
A shared knowledge base can also give agents a consistent reference when handling requests. Search and AI-assisted capabilities depend on the available product features and subscription, so they should not be treated as universal entitlements. Zendesk describes customer-facing and internal uses in its knowledge base information.
