Arena.im vs. Gorgias

It is well suited for situations where a chat solution can be embedded on a page. This instance requires minimal setup and allows you to add chat functionality to your site within minutes. I think it's less suited as an internal messaging tool- there are already other solutions like Slack that have cornered that market.

Gorgias is one of the easiest platforms I've used, as it was easy to navigate. You can customize your views so you can easily track them. The shared views are also specific and convenient. The search button is also one thing I like, as it easily shows what you're looking for with just keywords, email addresses, or any information.

• 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.

Incentivized

• Offer a lower-priced subscription for smaller blogs and websites.
• Provide a clearer way to see how many impressions have been used on the account so far.

Incentivized

• Rules are powerful, but clunky, showing them to others can put them off as it looks "easy to break" because of their messy nature.
• Pricing seems to be increasing due to the inclusion of more advanced AI that currently does not provide value.
• Macros could really use contextual support, or a hotkey system to make it easier to pick highly used ones that aren't in the top 3.

Gorgias is still by far most the most complete customer service tool to handle multiple responses and channels at a single umbrella without the needs of opening multiple tabs and sometimes will even make us missed some messages what supposed to be taken care of at a timely manner

We did not evaluate any other products as Arena.im fit our needs from the start.

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
