Dixa
Dixa may be a more cost-effective cash flow program than other programs used in our organization. Dixa does not require us to change our phone number when using the application because it is adaptable to our current number; the Dixa team handles the interface by quickly adding our phone number to their system. Despite the significant additions and updates to Dixa, our company is very pleased with the results obtained so far.

Help Scout
Small businesses that want a conversational type of customer support experience. Nothing wrong with support tickets, but it does make you feel like a number. Also, we needed to get up and running quickly so the "inbox" feel of the dashboard was already familiar with the team so they could adopt the new software quickly.

Pros
Dixa
  • The text recording of calls has made our life in the office easier since we often miss some requests, which with this feature we can attend to.
  • The pre-recorded greeting is a good way to keep the customer waiting to be answered.
  • The chatbot feature is perfect for customers with simpler problems to be solved.

Help Scout
  • Extremely simple to use and understand as a user - treats communications like human beings and provides a much more personal feel to communication (as opposed to making people feel like numbers).
  • The email newsletter.
  • They are super responsive. They are pretty rad and transparent: if something goes wrong on their end they are not afraid of admitting fault. Which leads me to trust them because I can believe them. I know that tells you very little about the product, but as leadership, that's something that I really need
  • Help Scout does exactly what it needs to (facilitate organized, efficient conversations between customers and support people) without getting in the way.

Cons
Dixa
  • I wish it had the option of call transcription so that you don't just have access to the recording.
  • We have had some problems when receiving calls, as they are forwarded instantly without allowing us to answer them.
  • We have also had problems integrating with social networks, we have not yet been able to integrate them.

Help Scout
  • Trying to group tickets is a bit unflexible. You can create folders which can be part of a workflow (automatic trigger) but you can't create a folder based on tags. This needs to be improved because there's a need to create smarter segments and mix them.
  • Metrics are useful but there needs to be more details about them. You can drill down in some but others are still not very actionable or visible (ok, that number went down, but what was the cause? what's the criteria with what you measure that?)

It is simple and intuitive. I haven't run into difficulty using any of the features that I have wanted to use. Additional help in the form of documentation or support is available as needed, and their response times are pretty good :)

Alternatives Considered
Dixa
Value proposition was by far and away the best. Any other system that had the features was much more expensive. The ease of programming made start up cost almost non existent. You have the ability to modify programming easily and do any special projects that invariable need to be accomplished by customer care.

Only have minimal experience with G-Suite for a much smaller company. This worked well for that organization but did not have similar specialization functions that suite our larger organization very well. Help Scout's pricing makes sense, and continues to service our needs well. Minimal usage of other programs, but have no need to explore alternatives at this time.

Help Scout
  • We are able to retain our customer base due to the outstanding customer service our Customer Experience department provides. Without an organized tool like Help Scout, this would not be possible. We pride ourselves in quick response times to customers and are able to do so by effectively routing tickets to the right agents.
