Intercom
Intercom is an excellent tool for client communication. It’s intuitive and supports various formats such as emails, posts, and banners, which are especially useful for sharing important updates like maintenance notices. Having all communication channels in one place makes it efficient and reliable for keeping clients informed and engaged. I gave 9 because I never used any other tool

I can fast chat, share files, share screens, present, and collaborate on any work through a streamlined interface. it is very easy to use and accessible worldwide for meetings despite long distances between users, You can use it to meet people virtually using video and audio, making it easy to connect with people across borders. It saves a lot of time and is effective for both discussion and work meetings.

Pros
Intercom
  • Detailed reports for chat, other support tools focus too much on tickets, it doesn't work for us
  • Snoozed, being able to postpone some conversations without necessarily having to turn them into a ticket, Intercom's focus on chat (real-time service) is the biggest reason we don't want to change tools
  • The range of apps helps a lot, today there are 2 apps that particularly help us a lot, which are the video recording app and the one with wootric.
  • Relatórios detalhados para chat, outras ferramentas de suporte focam muito em ticket, para nós não funciona
  • Snoozed, poder adiar algumas conversas sem precisar necessariamente transformar em ticket, o foco em chat (atendimento em tempo real) do Intercom é o maior motivo de não querermos trocar de ferramenta
  • A amplitude de apps ajudam muito, hoje tem 2 apps que particularmente nos ajudam muito que é o de gravação de vídeos e o com o wootric

  • It provides quick replies to the customer with chat it has AI which determines and replies to frequently asked questions.
  • Without stating the whole sentence it understands what the user is going to express it helps to get a better approach in terms of communication stability.
  • The best part is effective and satisfactory support given by he service owners.

Cons
Intercom
  • It would be great to have the ability to add rule-based tagging automations instead of using the workflows.
  • For users new to the platform, creating integrations via Github and the native "back-office" or "customer tickets" can be confusing.
  • Intercom cannot export reports or share reports with users who are not in Intercom. And if it is available, it's not apparent.

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
The transition from AI to human is seamless. This is from my experience of contacting Intercom for help and your use of Fin AI. We currently do not have the scale for Fin AI, but it is under consideration for the near future. Outside of Fin AI for our use case, bots and automation have made it easier to direct users to the correct knowledge materials and made the transition to human support seamless when needed.

Support Rating
Intercom
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.

Intercom
The intercom is more intuitive and provides easier management and personalization of our conversations. It's been a while since I used Zendesk, so this might have changed, but Intercom provides a bigger catalog of functionality targeted to product marketing, such as emails, in-app banners, pop-ups, and, overall, outbound communications.

Return on Investment

  • It is a somewhat complex tool to use where the learning curve can be high, but in the long run, customer service agents feel that the work is lighter. They are able to attend and prioritize customer calls making all customers feel satisfied with our services.
  • The purchase of this software is an investment that is undoubtedly worthwhile because, in the medium and long term, the sales department will work better and will be much more productive.
