Beacon
You're responsible for Zendesk. You shouldn't need a degree in it.
Rename a group? Hope nothing references it. Disable a trigger? Hope it wasn't the only thing routing urgent tickets. Push sandbox config to production? Copy it all by hand and pray.
Zendesk's admin panel scatters config across dozens of pages with no cross-referencing, no change tracking, and no easy way to know what's broken until a customer complains. Every change is a leap of faith.
Beacon gives you the full picture before you touch anything.
What Beacon does
Your entire Zendesk, one screen
Triggers, automations, views, macros, SLAs, groups, brands, ticket fields. Stop clicking through thirty different admin pages. See everything in one place.
Catch problems before your customers do
Health checks find broken references and orphaned objects. Logic analysis spots conflicting, redundant, and shadowed triggers. View gap detection finds tickets that don't land in any view and views with impossible conditions. AI analysis explains what it all means.
Test before you touch production
Dry-run your triggers against test scenarios to see which fire, in what order, and what they'd do. Trace a ticket from creation through the entire trigger chain to its final view. Know exactly what will happen before you push to production.
Change safely at any scale
Upload a modified spreadsheet and Beacon shows you exactly what will change in plain English before anything touches Zendesk. Bulk updates, one-click rollback to any snapshot, and sandbox-to-production promotion with full dependency awareness.
Work in the tools you already know
Export your config to a spreadsheet. Review it, mark your changes, import it back. Your team already lives in Excel, and now they can manage Zendesk there too.
Intelligent assistance built in
Guided mode explains every object type and describes changes in plain English. Claude goes further, analysing your live config to flag issues, explain complex trigger chains, and suggest improvements. Expert mode strips it back to inline JSON when you don't need the hand-holding. And when you need a human, Deltastring consultants are just a click away.
Beacon started as Deltastring's internal tool, built for our own Zendesk consulting work. Now it's yours.
