The Verdict
Dixa is built for ecommerce brands and mid market companies, with a focus on omnichannel-inbox and intelligent-routing. Zendesk targets enterprise and support teams and leads with ticketing and live-chat.

Neither tool offers a free plan, so factor the subscription cost into your decision from the start.
This is a genuinely close comparison. If you can, sign up for both free trials (where available) and run a one-week test with your actual team tasks before deciding.
