User Testimonials
FinZoom Contact Center
Likelihood to Recommend
Intercom
Fin is fantastic at answering simpler inquiries, where the range and types of questions are easier to categorize. Thereby reducing the subset of possible answers. Where it has shown great improvement - but still needs more improvement - is by becoming a true Agentic AI support engineer that is capable of answering more technically nuanced questions. Our product has a lot of variables used for troubleshooting that cannot be adequately captured in documentation. Even though we provide thousands of pages of spec docs, each issue is unique. Training and empowering Fin to be as good as a Level 1 support engineer is still very challenging.

At our company, we launch a new property project and receive many customer inquiries in a single day. Zoom contact center helped our team manage all calls and follow-ups properly without missing leads. It is very useful for handling customer communication. During peak hours, some agents face call delays, making it a bit difficult to track reports quickly.

Pros
Intercom
  • It is very easy to train
  • It does a great job of recommending answers when little context is given.
  • I love the ability to create a snippet to address issues in the moment or in the long term, based on FAQs.

Zoom
  • AI-powered self-service - customers can interact with our virtual agents and get answers to common inquiries, which ensures fast resolutions.
  • Better omnichannel support ensures our agents have an easy time managing customer interactions across chat, voice, and SMS.
  • With Zoom Contact Center in place, we have realized increased agent productivity thanks to its AI features and its ability to integrate with our CRM tool.
  • The advanced routing and insights ensure that customer issues head to the right customer agent depending on skills.

Cons
Intercom
  • It seems some users really struggle to figure out how to escalate to a human (especially through email).
  • Not excited about how "soft" resolutions still count as resolutions and are paid for. Though some abandoned cases appear to be able to be concluded as "the user got the answer they needed", there are others where they clearly didn't, because they just open up another chat (or even more), trying to get more info. This pads the resolution stats and makes it seem more effective than it actually is.
  • Cost -- Fin is quite expensive. It helps us with scaling coverage, but we're not really saving money.

  • The integration with Zoom Phone is still ongoing, so it initially required some tricky configuration and additional phone numbers, but that's no longer a requirement now.
  • I would love a way to use physical handsets with the Contact Centre. Currently, it's all softphone integration on a PC or Mac. But it's a great experience and very similar to using Zoom Meetings, so there's minimal training for staff needed.
  • The Admin Settings on the backend can be tricky to navigate. Still, you have much more customization and constant feature upgrades than I've ever seen with any other Contact Centre service.

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.

We are very likely to renew Zoom Contact Center because it has been a stable and reliable solution for our organization. It fits well within the broader Zoom ecosystem that we already use, including Zoom Meetings, Zoom Phone, and Zoom Chat, which creates a more seamless experience for users and reduces complexity.
The product quality has been strong overall, and we have also had positive experiences with Zoom’s customer service. While there are still areas where reporting and certain features could improve, the platform has delivered enough value in usability, stability, and integration to make renewal likely.

Usability
Intercom
The platform is overall clear and intuitive. As with any new platform, there's a learning curve, but that wasn't an issue for our team (and it shouldn't be an issue for others). Fin options are scattered across several submenus, and I'd like them grouped together, but I also like having all those training-related tabs open at all times, so it's not much of a real issue for me.

Usability is one of Zoom Contact Center's strongest selling points. It feels like a natural extension of the Zoom platform rather than a bolted-on contact center tool, which made adoption across our team noticeably smoother than previous system rollouts. Zoom Contact Center is clean, intuitive, and easy to navigate for both agents and administrators. For organizations already using Zoom, the learning curve is minimal.

Support Rating
Intercom
I can get help by asking Fin questions about itself. It answers accurately, citing its own Help Center resources with visuals. It can reason and dialogue well. But when it comes to getting human support for Fin, it is not as quick. It can sometimes take a few days. They are polite and well-meaning. Some things aren't their fault (product limitations), but there was one occasion where something took a long time to resolve with lots of back and forth but it was I who found out the error in the end that they missed, so they didn't really help resolve it.

We have had a positive experience with Zoom Contact Center support overall. Support has generally been responsive and helpful, and our interactions have given us confidence in the product and platform.
In addition to the support experience itself, the product has been stable and reliable in day-to-day use, which helps reduce the need for frequent support involvement. When support has been needed, the experience has been solid enough to reinforce our overall positive view of the platform.
For those reasons, we would rate the overall support highly, while still recognizing there is always room for improvement.

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

Zoom
I implemented Zoom Contact Center myself, and overall the process was straightforward. The platform was relatively easy to configure, and it did not require an unusually large amount of internal support or complexity to get up and running.
One of the advantages during implementation was how well it fit within the broader Zoom environment, which helped reduce friction and made the setup feel more familiar. In our experience, the implementation process was manageable and efficient overall.
There is always some room for improvement, but the implementation was smooth enough that I would rate the experience highly.

Alternatives Considered
Intercom
There are so many AI platforms available, and you could theoretically build a system using the available AI API's from any of the big platforms. However, I dont think it's as easy as this. Intercom is deliberately built for customer service, the features they are releasing a based on providing the best customer experience. If we were to build this ourselves or to use another platform we would be taking on the upkeep, using Fin is just much simpler as it's also our chosen ticketing platform so anything that Fin is not able to answer yet and escalated directly to our team with no extra effort required from our side.

This tool has enabled us to identify each user's needs across our various communication channels. It has also facilitated a direct point of contact with Zoom’s technical support team, allowing us to document and escalate any situation requiring specialized assistance, which is the primary reason we chose Zoom. I would recommend it to any colleague or company, as it offers a wide variety of tools, and—now, with the integration of AI—the level of service has improved significantly.

Return on Investment
Intercom
  • New role opportunities — Using the “Fin-first” approach has reduced the workload for our Tier 1 team, giving them more time to focus on their own career growth. It’s also opened the door to a dedicated, AI-focused role, where a team member regularly reviews Fin’s answers and makes updates to help it perform even better.
  • Enabling Fin has also reduced our response time and allowed us to meet SLA's.

Zoom
  • Intuitive, Easier and almost effortless to maintain.
  • Lesser Operational Expenses that the alternative we also have
  • We wish it has a better integration with Zoom Phone, in terms of channels integration (Voice and Chat) to quick identify callers.
  • It is missing "modular" programming to "reuse" Existing Flows and call them from other flows then return to the main flow.
  • It is missing the capability to compartmentalizing different teams/groups related to reporting, admin, and global parameters.
