Zendesk costs $720/seat/year for the Team plan. That’s $7200/year for a 10-person support team. The UI is slow, customization is limited, and you’re locked into their ecosystem.

We need a self-hosted alternative that handles 80% of what support teams actually need — email tickets, live chat, and a knowledge base — without the enterprise bloat.
