It managed to have auto-replied to most of the incoming emails during the weekend break, it's given customer to have more confident to purchase from us again and getting their issue resolved swiftly. Gorgias can have shortcuts reply feature that shorten customer service time on each ticket resolution time which is a win.
We use Gorgias as our help desk solution for our direct to consumer side of the business, and growing to also use it with our wholesale division for mom & pop style businesses. It integrates well with Shopify, and we've used this to speed up response time and make it so that our support team does not have to "leave" the help desk in order to address many problems, boosting productivity dramatically!
Pros
It syncs data from Shopify quickly and easily, while displaying it neatly on the side of the ticket when needed.
A lot of customization for tags and ticket fields for labeling tickets.
The ability to create rules and flows to streamline the triage process.
Cons
Rules are powerful, but clunky, showing them to others can put them off as it looks "easy to break" because of their messy nature.
Pricing seems to be increasing due to the inclusion of more advanced AI that currently does not provide value.
Macros could really use contextual support, or a hotkey system to make it easier to pick highly used ones that aren't in the top 3.
Likelihood to Recommend
If you are using Shopify, and you've grown to needing a help desk, I'd recommend Gorgias be the next step, as something like Zendesk might be just a bit too much for most early ecommerce businesses. But if you are in an extremely niche position, Gorgias might be worth a trial, but if you are handling tickets that cannot be automated, then automation based help desks might be a waste currently for your business.
We use Gorgias as a platform to answer all incoming and outbound emails for our customers. We receive emails from our customers, we have macros to use, and we can also personalize our responses. We can also create a ticket and send an outbound email to our customers, which is very convenient.
Pros
Receive emails from customers.
Create a ticket based on a specific concern.
Send our responses to our customers.
Cons
Maybe in sending our response, it would be nice if the undo button was longer than 5 seconds.
Alt + enter should be disabled as we could accidentally press this, and the emails are automatically sent.

Gorgias is one of the easiest platforms I've used, as it was easy to navigate. You can customize your views so you can easily track them. The shared views are also specific and convenient. The search button is also one thing I like, as it easily shows what you're looking for with just keywords, email addresses, or any information.
The company I worked for was an e-commerce brand that set up websites for large companies such as magazines, influencers, athletes, etc. We would use Gorgias for all of the email integrations we had over 40 stores and email addresses that Gorgias was able to handle capably. The ticket volume we experienced was over one thousand on a given day.
Pros
Tagging- the tagging system was a great way to stay organized.
Rules- when you have 49 inboxes implementing rules on when to fire a macro or auto tag is necessary and Gorgias’ UI was easy to understand and execute.
Integrations- I had to integrate with dozens of inboxes many times using aliases and most of the time Gorgias was able to help.
Cons
With that said, sometimes integrations would not work and we would have to create a Gmail alias.
Their response time was not that quick to errors.
They did not integrate with platforms such as whiplash or ship station which would have been very useful.
Likelihood to Recommend
It has the best Shopify integration we had over 40 Shopify stores and having all of that information on a user's email was extremely helpful. The integrations for 3pls could’ve been better and the reporting left something to be desired. Having a feature like most common topics based on what the users write about rather than what we had to manually tag would be very beneficial.
