Even if they did it will simply be a short lived bump unless the product and service is measurably better. If it is then in the long run it shouldn't matter either way.
However, I do think their criticisms of Zendesk and their paid blogger's method of product 'evangelism' are fair and they have every right to take their shot and fire back a bit. It's all good, the better product development team will most likely win either way.

You sure are pushing your product hard. Drama attracts attention, which you then direct towards your sign-up page. Kind of sleazy.

Seems all the 'drama' came from Zendesk's paid blogger. If you don't want the other team to score with the ball, don't hand them the ball.
I wonder if these tactics actually have a measurable impact on sales?
