Chose Fin by Intercom
Ease of use and very attentive support. Also, the AI is really really good with Fin by Intercom. You guys are just simply the best in the industry.
Chose Fin by Intercom
Beats them all in my opinion, Intercom's ease of use and intuitive design cannot be beat compared to others. We had a look at both Zendesk and Freshchat in the past and we saw very quickly that we're already using the best tool for the job. My only "complaint" would be the cost …
Chose Fin by Intercom
We're using another AI agent too. Fin AI is a little behind, as it needs to start learning from either testing or real conversations, so it can better advise users with accurate information - whereas the other AI agent is learning very fast and needs little to no adjustment of …
Chose Fin by Intercom
Intercom is just so much better; Our company was using both Zendesk and Intercom for two different products we offer. We brought them all over to Intercom, and they are really happy about the shift. They didn't use any AI in Zendesk, though, so Fin is their first experience …
Chose Fin by Intercom
Good value, especially compared to CRM. The AI voice from ElevenLabs is much cheaper at this stage than the Intercom voice.
Chose Fin by Intercom
Intercom provides a broader range of available integrations, so it becomes a productivity booster because agents don't have to juggle between separate apps and can keep as much as possible to resolve the case within the same app.
Chose Fin by Intercom
We used it a few years ago, and it was not as feature-rich for our needs. It lacked true AI capabilities, was hard for users to understand, and created workaround issues. The internal ticket system was difficult to use and led to many missed issues and calls.
Chose Fin by Intercom
Fin is far superior. We love Fin.
Chose Fin by Intercom
We did evaluate proactive support for a while, but found that it likely wouldn't be worth the cost.
Chose Fin by Intercom
We haven't looked at anything else.
Chose Fin by Intercom
Hubspot leaves much to be desired for the price while fin makes it easy.
Chose Fin by Intercom
Fin by Intercom outperforms Zendesk in almost all metrics as a user-friendly, experienced-focused platform. Zendesk's chat functionality is more limited than Intercom's and the AI agent is not as helpful.

Our primary business partner uses Zendesk, and this is what we use to …
Chose Fin by Intercom
Zendesk isn't even in the same league (I last used zendesk in 2023)
Chose Fin by Intercom
I think Fin by Intercom stacks up well for the specific niche of using AI to provide customer support and business uses. The other AI products I've used are more general LLMs which, while great, would be a struggle to use/build to provide the same experience.

That said, as it …
Chose Fin by Intercom
When searching for a customer support tool to use for our primary system of dealing with customers i did look at other companies products but none of them seemed to provide functionality as deep as intercom did, its not only Fin by Intercom but also team inboxes, help centre, …
Chose Fin by Intercom
I find a key difference in reliability: HubSpot's AI sometimes "hallucinates" answers, presenting inaccurate information with undue confidence, which undermines trust. In contrast, Fin demonstrates a valuable willingness to be wrong, often signaling its limitations or knowledge …
Chose Fin by Intercom
We initially used Dixa Mim Bot, which is a far inferior chatbot and AI system. It felt like they were behind the curve compared to Intercom, with slow progress and little investment in the future of the Bot. It was very basic in its capabilities and needed more Dev support to …
Chose Fin by Intercom
We have previously used Crisp chat, while the software is good, Fin really drives us towards using Intercom.
Chose Fin by Intercom
Easy connections to them both, direct links, and easy access. We can communicate through them both and get the answer directly in the intercom, or simply an easy access direct link that shows exactly where we can find the answer we are looking for. It also gives suggestions for …
Chose Fin by Intercom
We've used Unblocked in Slack and also use Gemini in Google Suite.

Each have their flaws, and all need to be double checked for accuracy.

Intercom
Fin by Intercom is well-suited for handling basic questions, especially for smaller teams that don’t have the time or resources to fully train it. That said, it’s easy to see how much more powerful Fin could be with proper guidance, training, and well-developed content in place.

Pros
Intercom
  • Serves as the first point of interaction.
  • Answers questions based on the knowledge base.
  • Tries to suggest a solution for reported issues (in some cases).
  • Gives the option to improve its answer.
  • Learns from other conversations and replies by humans.
  • Understands other languages.
  • Interprets images (somewhat).

Cons
Intercom
  • Setting up workflows are not easy to do and have some limited scope
  • Making repeated suggestions should be easier to contain
  • It would be great if it could identify other tickets that may have similar issues or identify Linear or Jira tickets that may be relevant
  • Prevent service agents from making duplicate customers of the same name or even close misspelled names - it makes for very dirty data
  • Make suggestions for tagging conversations to rely less on the agents to do clean up

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.

Usability
Intercom
I think Intercom and Fin by Intercom AI is pretty intuitive and user-friendly. I think, touching on already mentioned topics, that Fin by Intercom AI could be a little more intuitive in conversations especially when allowing customers to be routed to a person. Also, have to be honest, the search features (e.g. Inbox searches) and reports could be made more intuitive. Also, while I appreciate how fast Intercom changes, I have found that sometimes options or feature just move or change without warning. This can make things a little confusing if you get used to a particular way of working or using a feature.

Support Rating

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.
