Delivra vs. Intercom

As far as I know, Delivra is the only email marketing software that allows for every instance of a personalized email to be bcc'ed to an internal email address. This is a niche feature, but can be very useful for companies that need detailed records of all client communication for posterity.

Well suited for real time customer support needs - that's where it really shines. Well suited for proactive outreach and the ability to gather feedback from customers + surveys. Less appropriate for a non techie company to set it up, basically any sort of changes in integration have to be done by an engineer.

• User-friendly - once I understood the platform better, it took only a few minutes for me to prepare the reminder based on the survey invitation.
• Trustworthy - I could trust that my emails were sent successfully.
• Had the necessary tools - I only used a few of the features, but the ones I did use were easy to implement for the emails.

• Intercom's ability to centralize customer communication is a game-changer.
• Intercom's automation features have saved us time and streamlined workflows.
• Help desk for users.
• Intercom seamlessly integrates with a variety of other tools and platforms, enhancing its functionality and making it a central part of our tech stack.

• The contact database is not easy to navigate and we are limited by the number of contact categories we can create, and the ones we can delete. When personalizing emails it is hard to see past all the unneeded database properties to find the ones I want to include.
• Every time I log in from https://www.delivra.com/ it opens a second window with the app and leaves the first window. It should go directly to the app in the same window.
• Within the app, you can't open links in new tabs for easy comparison between different files/versions. It would be nice to have one email open and be able to easily open a different draft "in a new tab" without having to open a new window, log in again, and navigate to the needed file.

• The AI tools should have a make shorter option
• The research is difficult compared to other platforms such as Zendesk where it is easier to find stuff (accounts, emails, messages...)
• I know that you could integrate better AI tools! The chatbot is amazing, so I'm just missing more AI tools to increase productivity

We have been and will be continuing our journey with Intercom and nothing too concerning has happened that I have experienced or heard of that has us on the edge yet. If it ever happens it will be something along the lines of "Outgrowing" the use of need of the platform.

Everything is very straightforward and easy to see, explore, and use. Intercom provides walkthroughs and helps guides in case something is not apparent to the user and has their agents available to help. I always feel confident when exploring new features or making changes that I can have it accomplished due to the service they provide.

Intercom is the premier customer support/engagement model and it definitely has one of the top tier customer support teams as well. I don't think I have ever waited more than 5 minutes to get the information I need or get help with an issue. They are incredible and I aim to model our customer service department after them.

Easy to know the learning path

The implementation was surprisingly easy but we are having to adapt from our old process to work well with Intercom.

I had the ability to manually suppress who I wanted to send the email to, as well as individually send a link to members/customers without depending on Qualtrics ability to "send to non-survey respondents."

We've used both Drift and Salesforce chat at Owl Labs in the past, and I didn't find them to meet our needs or customer needs the way Intercom has been able to. Intercom ranks higher for us regarding Integrations offered, customization, AI functionality, and user-friendliness. In the past, if chat visitors would click around our website, they'd have to start their chat over again from the start and lose their communication history with us. We also found that Salesforce chat did not have enough customization that we needed. One small example is that in Intercom, you can see when another teammate is looking at a chat and tag them in notes to collaborate. We didn't have access to anything like that when using Salesforce chat. Intercom has made it easy to work alongside one another to be more efficient.

• Delivra has been well suited to the needs of a particular client, and allowed for campaigns to be executed in line with their needs.
• Delivra is another tool in our company's email marketing/marketing automation toolbox that can be used when needed or at a different price point from other platforms.
• Overall, we haven't widely deployed Delivra.

Incentivized

• I like how easy it is to spot the user data needed to assist our members.
• Love how easy it is to link articles on the chat that will help both us and the customers.
• I like that the sales force or the tickets is already connected on the chat
