In the new Zendesk Interface, the dashboard by default displays a "Tickets Requiring Your Attention" view. (I realize this is not a "view" in the Zendesk-defined sense)  This way of looking at tickets is not customizable - the fields displayed cannot be altered, the column widths cannot be changed, and there's no way to "anchor" alternate views on the left side where the existing icons (for dashboard, reporting, settings, etc) reside.  Those are features we consider vital in order for us to use the Lotus interface.  The most glaring omission on the default dashboard is the absence of the ticket number.  It would be great if Zendesk started by making that change, and then making the dashboard customizable so that it has real value to those users who need a different dataset than Zendesk has provided by default.

    We recently started working with Zendesk as well and provide support for a lot of different Brands (+10). One of the things we miss in the Dashboard is what brand the ticket has been assigned to.

    If the dashboard would be more customizable, this and other issues preventing agents from working between a load of views and the dashboard could be maintained to a minimum.

    No point in waiting. Create a starting view to your liking and add a bookmark in the web browser.

    @all - Thank you for checking up on this - you are not forgotten! We have some VERY big features rolling out shortly that are taking a lot of resources. I know that doesn't help with the wait, but we can only focus on so much.

    I'm about to roll out Zendesk to a much larger portion of my company and getting a dashboard that could be customized would go a long way to me selling the additional cost off the all of the new licenses. Zendesk is great and a massive improvement over what they were using but that dashboard could be so much better. Hoping for great things in the "VERY big features" that Bob mentioned 2 weeks ago.

    Being able to set the dashboard to a custom view on a group/user level would be extremely useful. Our dashboard has personally requested this change because it's feeling so neglected so please, do it for the dashboard!

    We need to be able to customize the agent dashboard.
