Product Details

What is Intercom?

Intercom is presented as an Engagement OS, an open channel between customer and business that is in the product, in the moment, and on their terms. The solution breaks down silos, unifying data and systems to create an ongoing dialogue, so companies can make the most of every opportunity.

Intercom's key differentiators, as described by the vendor:
  • In-context communications: Communicate with customers more effectively by engaging them where they are: in-context, in the moment, and with a seamless handoff between channels. Deliver and respond to the right message, at the right time, in the right place, and with a seamless pass across channels — from messenger, email, SMS, WhatsApp and beyond.
  • Personalized experience: Make it personal at any scale by powering engagement with live, first-party data through the full customer journey. Use data insights to dynamically change and update messaging, adapting to content and delivery needs in real-time.
  • Unified platform: Break down silos and drive collaboration across the organization, with a central customer record that unifies every team and function that touches your customers. Build trust with enterprise-grade security that meets or exceeds global standards for availability, reliability, data portability, encryption, and authentication.
  • Next-generation software: Intercom promises to continuously improve their software to deliver greater intelligence, automation and functionality, and the solution boasts over 100 new features added every year. Their tools enable anyone to build and launch solutions in minutes, and engage customers in the way that works for them.

The pricing is way too high for our organization. We're looking for alternatives in order to have a better use of our financial ressources but so far we depend a lot on intercom with some features we really need. So far we haven't found a proper alternative to answer our needs that's why I think we'll renew our use. We can't afford to go back to manual actions neither

It’s an easy to user low code product that is always evolving. There product team is innovative and their support team is responsive. It has been east to build a sophisticated use case internally with little help from Intercom as the product is easy to use

We love Intercom and have been using it for years, it makes life easy for our customer support reps. Intercom is always adding new features and I feel like they are thinking about us, their customers, and what to make better for us. This year alone the SMS and Survey features have been so nice for us to utilize.

We have used Intercom since the inception of our business. It's simple interface has been easy for us to onboard new team members while delivering exceptional results for our clients. The only thing holding me back from giving a 10 is the cost of the product.

Intercom's customer service is awesome, the platform is intuitive, and we don't have to manage multiple software subscriptions to accomplish what we do through Intercom: chatbots, ticketing, help center, product orientation and adoption campaigns, etc. Intercom's a one-stop shop for customer engagement and we love that they're constantly improving and innovating.

It's a very matured product with effective use cases. Help Centre, Chat Support, Announcements, Product Tours - all are very powerful and work really well. The only downside is the predictability of pricing. When deployed on the website, intercom calculates the monthly active users on the website and bills you accordingly - which can be very difficult to predict.

I give it this rating because of pricing. One of the downsides is that for every new added function you want, there is a price tag with it. It would be nice to have package deals where you get majority of functions for one price point. Or special promotions for existing customers to upgrade to higher packages.

It's currently a perfect fit for our needs, and we are customer-focused and small. When we grow, we may need to re-evaluate, but our current team finds it easy. Reviewing conversations is simple and allows for great training. The canned replies make service fast and easy. Smart suggestions remove the need to re-write technical walkthroughs and explanations for our FAQ.
