We have removed the restriction to have a mandatory email address field in your survey for a new contacts to be added in Mailchimp. Now instead of having a mandatory email address field, you can simply pass the email address as a variable in your survey itself and new contacts would be created in Mailchimp when a new response is received.
At Zonka Feedback, we are committed to providing our customers with the highest level of data security and privacy. And since we work closely with companies globally, it is important that all companies can use Zonka Feedback - irrespective of their geographic location.
That's why, as a part of our Regional Data Hosting initiative, we are excited to announce the EU Data Hosting.
With the EU Data Hosting feature, you can have your data stored and managed on a secure server located within the EU. This will ensure that customer feedback data remains within the borders of the EU, while still allowing customers to use all of the same features and benefits of Zonka Feedback.
We are very excited to offer this new feature to our customers in the EU, and we hope it will provide them with greater peace of mind when it comes to their data security. If you have any questions about the EU Data Hosting feature, please feel free to reach out to your account manager or write to us at hello@zonkafeedback.com.

Until now Zonka Feedback + Freshdesk integration allowed creating of tickets with survey responses that had the email address mandatory. Now we have made it non-mandatory so tickets can be automatically created in Freshdesk when a new response is received with either the email address or mobile number.

Many businesses already use SMSes to communicate with their customers - marketing messages, confirmation SMSes and more. In such cases, it makes sense to use the same gateway account to send SMS Surveys to customers.
With Zonka Feedback, you can now connect your own SMS Gateway Account and send SMS Surveys to customers through the same. You can either use an existing SMS Gateway Account or sign up for a new one, add your API credentials to Zonka Feedback and connect your account.
When you connect your own SMS Gateway Account, the surveys are composed and set in Zonka Feedback and are sent from your SMS Gateway Account.
When to use this?
You can use this option in multiple scenarios.
Which SMS Gateways are supported?
We currently support Twilio and SMS Gupshup SMS Gateways. Other SMS Gateways can also be connected in the Enterprise Plan, at an additional cost.
Which plans support connecting your SMS Gateway?
You can connect your own SMS Gateway account in any plan.
