Glia vs. Intercom

It is well suited for repeatable user journeys that require a high touch and service environment. Glia excels at providing tools that enable and create engagement, in a diverse form of options and methods. It is fully customizable and integration is better than simple. Glia is probably less suited for an organization that is looking for a self-service engagement tool, not manned by users.

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.

• The ability to conduct a co-browse session quickly and easily has been a big hit for our customers and employee base.
• SaleMove is always looking for creative new ideas to help provide additional value to our customers.

• 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.

• Lack of SMS integration.
• The development required for integration into custom CRMs.
• Roadmap features AI-powered initiatives, but it is a product that integrates with AI and not a new or advanced AI tool.

• 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.

This is Glia's largest strength. The integration and initial configuration were done exclusively by Glia, freeing up our limited technology resources. Especially at the beginning of our relationship, the customer success team on a scheduled basis assisted in the review of our data and KPIs while offering strategies to improve services and achieve higher ROI. None of these services were offered for a premium and this demonstrates the commitment Glia has to launch successful partnerships.

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.

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

The customer success team was superior, as was the possibility of pro-active engagements across all mediums and platforms. Pricing models in this space are comparable, however, the enhanced auxiliary features, as well as a stronger product road map for development, tipped the scales towards Glia. The product road map is always made available to customers, and most initiatives are deployed on time.

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.

• We have seen NPS results increase since using SaleMove

• 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
