Amazing Product With Exceptional Support from the team. By using Knit we managed to speed up our development by orders of magnitude.

Seamless integration experience. Well-documented, self-explanatory APIs, and excellent service and support.
Easy to integrate. Knit's dashboard is intuitive for setting up and testing integrations, and the sandbox is extremely useful during development.
Knit shipped a brand-new Timesheet API in a week and handed us a ready-to-use NetSuite sandbox. That velocity is priceless when you're running payroll in 40+ countries.

Common questions about Zendesk + Salesforce
Is there a pre-built Zendesk + Salesforce automation?
Yes — see the real automations above, already live on Knit. The Agent can also build a custom one if what you need isn't listed.
Does this require a pre-built Zendesk or Salesforce connector?
No. The Agent works whether or not Zendesk or Salesforce already has a pre-built connector in Knit's catalog — it researches the real API surface either way.
How long does it take to build?
Minutes to build a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.
What business advantages come from linking Salesforce and Zendesk?
It breaks down silos between sales and support, giving account managers visibility into tickets and allowing closed sales to trigger onboarding workflows.
Can closing a deal automatically generate a ticket for customer success?
Yes, marking a deal as won in Salesforce can automatically generate a ticket in Zendesk for implementation support.
