Gorgias vs. ServiceNow Customer Service Management

It has the best Shopify integration we had over 40 Shopify stores and having all of that information on a user's email was extremely helpful. The integrations for 3pls could’ve been better and the reporting left something to be desired. Having a feature like most common topics based on what the users write about rather than what we had to manually tag would be very beneficial.

It is well suited for medium to large companies that manage different teams and need to communicate constantly and track progress in a timely manner. It is less suited for small enterprises as it will overwhelm users with the features and functionalities embedded.

• Tagging- the tagging system was a great way to stay organized.
• Rules- when you have 49 inboxes implementing rules on when to fire a macro or auto tag is necessary and Gorgias’ UI was easy to understand and execute.
• Integrations- I had to integrate with dozens of inboxes many times using aliases and most of the time Gorgias was able to help.

• Allows for clear communication between help desk and end users.
• Provides a clean inventory option for both hardware items and software licenses.
• Navigation is very intuitive and user friendly.
• Many reporting features for all levels of the company.

• With that said, sometimes integrations would not work and we would have to create a Gmail alias.
• Their response time was not that quick to errors.
• They did not integrate with platforms such as whiplash or ship station which would have been very useful.

• Adding in additional chat features would be nice
• Viewing where you stand in priority
• Having a way to automate more of the processes

Bottom line is that it does what you need it to do. We've been using Service Now as a ticket managing tool for a few years now. There's really not much it can't do when it comes to recording interactions. It has been nice using inventory tracking for software licenses and hardware as well.

Support has been very good. Any time there has been a real issue, the team has responded very quickly and identified the issue without a lot of repetitive questions that I've seen from other services. There is a great external community and internal knowledge base that covers pretty much anything you need.

We selected Gorgias from Zendesk based on its Shopify integration. Given how many stores we were managing the team needed to quickly find all of a customer's information in an email. We preferred it to Zendesk. However, now that I use intercom I have many more features such as surveys, topics, extensive reporting, auto tags, and series I prefer intercom for my work now

Connectwise targets small to medium enterprises and kept things simple for cross-organizational communications. On the other hand, ServiceNow with users with more than 500 at least, tends to create lag and tension when all are using the app at the same time, especially getting reports in a timely manner.

• Scales for 25 inboxes to 40
• Handled over 1000 tickets a day quickly with Shopify information easily available.
• Quantified reports for our business partners based on tagging features.

• The negative impact for my team is the delay in team completing tickets but not a system issue.
• A positive impact for my team is we can easily view the status of tickets and the follow-up emails are beneficial to maintain records of tickets.
• Negative impact is that there is no user job aid or helpful tools for new users.
