JivoChat makes it really easy to communicate with customers. It is best for small and medium sales and customer support teams. The team members can even communicate between each other, so it has a use case outside of client facing communication. It has convenient (yet minimal) CRM features. It's a bit overkill for individual website owners, but definitely one of the best Chat Apps out there for teams.

• Gives the option to improve its answer.
• Learns from other conversations and replies by humans.
• Understands other languages.

• Provides ease of connecting with customers on real time basis
• Helps us in managing inbound traffic coming to our website
• Avoids hassle free experience of sharing pics and docs in chat itself
• Reduces time spent on calls and emails

• Sometimes Fin can provide incorrect information when using previous conversations as a source; this is one of the few downsides, as teammates can sometimes make mistakes.
• We also sometimes see that Fin does not pass to a human as quickly as we would like, but this could also be a training improvement our business needs to implement.

• There is a negligible number of candidates at the same time so, this application must use a large number of applicants if possible.
• The quality of the internet should be good enough for its accurate working.

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.

Some things are not as intuitive as they could be, and the system allows many double entries and the mixing of names and companies without helping to avoid these pitfalls. It is hard to remember where all the different features are located, and workflows are difficult to set up. I would like more guidance as to issues and how to resolve them in the system.

It is user friendly and has almost all features required in a chat application.

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 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 is good in this niche, Fin by Intercom does have that natural limitation against being used more wildly as an AI product. E.g. while it's getting better, it struggles with understanding images, and would be much better if it could use conversation memory to provide better/more useful and contextual responses. But overall, it does well with what it needs to do.

Because is a tool that we can easily use and the team learn to use in a little time. It's easy to implement for the team and the necessity of the organization. We only use one meeting to teach others the tools of JivoChat and how to install in their equipment.

• With Fin, we achieved higher customer satisfaction and faster response times.
• It saves time for our support team, allowing them to focus on more complex questions or issues.
• It provides the opportunity for support staff to work at a more strategic level.

• Increased Efficiency during the short period of our testing
