Definition
Zendesk Customer Agreement s.12: "“Agent(s)” means an individual (including those of Customer’s Affiliates) a Customer has authorized to use the Services through Customer’s Account."
Counting rules
Plans are priced per agent seat. One individual per purchased Agent login (s.2.2(v)). Any agent, the account owner and admins use a seat; suspended agents still use a seat. Light agents and contributors are usually free but use a seat when they also hold an Agent, Admin or Editor role for Chat, Knowledge or Analytics. In Zendesk Suite one seat covers every core product in the Suite (seat parity).
Floors / minimums
Number of Agents is set on the Order Form and cannot be reduced during a Subscription Term (s.4.2). No published minimum seat count for Suite plans; the High Volume API add-on requires at least 10 agent seats.
