Intercom Helpdesk is the support workspace where human teammates handle customer conversations and tickets. Fin, the customer agent, and Copilot work in that same Inbox, so a case can move from an automated reply to a teammate with the conversation history attached.

ManyChat headquartered in San Francisco provides their chatbot building platform to deploy Facebook messenger chatbots for support and service.
Intercom is well suited to finding information that your colleague gets about one lead or User. It's less appropriate when you need some report that you can not custom, and the different categories are really not clear. Nevertheless, for the communication with your clients and feature clients, it's really perfect!

I found that ManyChat is a strong tool when receiving incoming messages, being able to create a tree of potential responses based on options given to the initiator. There is also a huge potential for complex automation (as long as the environment required by Facebook in order to send outgoing messages is maintained).

Intercom is great for tracking user engagement, support, and marketing. I love that you can see what a user is doing on your site and send messages (email or chat) based on specific criteria.
Intercom is simple, easy to use, and great for website chats. It is very easy for customers to interact with.
Makes your team very accessible, also makes the support process simple for the end users. Good integrations and useful statistics provided.

Exporting conversations - we need to do this for things like customer disputes and chargebacks, however the export is a simple unformatted text file, which is not an acceptable capture of the threads as it can be simply edited. A clean and neat PDF export would be fantastic.
Better/simpler spam and abusive user blocking, maybe based on IP address or sender domain
A lower cost - there are many free/low cost platforms now, and I feel your costs are high

Honestly, the only thing I don't like about ManyChat is their support. It seems to be almost non existent. However, that concern is negated by having a fantastic user base that helps each other out on Facebook.

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.

Customizability: Intercom is highly customizable, allowing users to tailor the interface to their specific needs and preferences. This can help to improve usability by ensuring that users have quick and easy access to the features and information they need most, this can be done by using Macros, generating custom events and etc.

ManyChat is a great tool, provides loads of features, integrations and just saves you a whole load of time once all set up. If you aren't tech-savvy or used to how digital marketing tools work, it can appear complicated. That's how I felt initially 2 years ago, and after watching tutorials online I had a better understanding of it. This is why I rated it a 7, as it's not a tool that you can just play around with and guess how it works. There's definitely a learning curve with it so I recommend doing the free training and watching video tutorials.

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.

There is room for improvement but frankly, we haven't had the need to request for support. Everything is pretty easy to setup and there are very useful video explanation guides and walkthroughs on ManyChat's YouTube channel. The only challenge we have had was to integrate it with Zapier, it's a bit tricky because you need to do a setup workaround first, but nothing too complicated.

Intercom is much easier to use. Even though HubSpot's Support hub is a fairly new feature, it lacks so much. It is quite complicated to use and lacks many features that Intercom can offer just for the focus of customer service.

I've worked in the past with Chatfuel. However, I decided to switch to ManyChat due to a variety of reasons. Overall, ManyChat offers much more functionality out of the box (e.g., Facebook comments tool), sequence builders are much more intuitive. Also, they provide flexible pay as you go pricing plan, which is perfect for a startup like us.

For the intended application, we experienced a negative ROI due to the inconsistency in the ability to maintain the automation without incoming responses. Since it is a free service that was meant to lead to paid services organically, the inconsistencies prevented the desired outcome.
We did experience a higher conversion rate with basic incoming messages with questions about services or products due to the ability to have pre-created responses and direction immediately supporting the prospect.
