About Zendesk (and Base)
We founded Base in 2009 based on our strongly held belief that businesses deserve better, smarter software. We’ve grown to over 5,000 customers across the globe and in September 2018 we were acquired by Zendesk to shape the future of customer relationship management together. Our mentality is to transform the art of sales into actionable information to help organizations take their growth to the next level. We believe in a collaborative working style with a bias towards rapid prototyping, experimentation and a strong curiosity for our customers and their needs.
