This partnership combines Horatio’s human-first outsourcing model with Zendesk’s leading CX platform to deliver scalable, high-quality support across channels
Horatio, the modern customer experience company revolutionizing the outsourcing industry, announced its designation as a Premier Zendesk Partner—the highest level within the Zendesk Partner Program-and a strategic collaboration with Zendesk, the leading customer-experience software provider. By joining forces, the two companies are helping high-growth e-commerce, fintech, and healthcare brands deliver exceptional experiences through a unified support model that brings together human empathy, technological efficiency, and continuous innovation.
As a Premier Partner, Horatio joins an elite global group recognized for demonstrated excellence in implementing and optimizing Zendesk solutions, technical certification, and delivering measurable business outcomes.

One of Horatio’s fast-growing e-commerce clients recently cut average first response time by more than fifty percent and raised customer satisfaction (CSAT) by twenty percent after onboarding the combined model.
