Overall Satisfaction with Help Scout

We use Help Scout for our main source of customer support. From emails, to team collaboration, to chat - Help Scout powers it all. We have multiple email addresses that customers could contact us through. It got confusing by having multiple inboxes that needed to be checked. There was no way for team members to collaborate on complicated support scenarios. Help Scout helped us organize and collaborate on support tickets. We also use Help Scout as a live chat feature to help reduce phone calls yet still support our customers right where they are.
  • Live Chat
  • Multiple Inbox Organization
  • Team Collaboration
  • Onboarding (Dedicated CSM)
  • No lost customer support queries!
  • Collaboration on complicated support queries. Its so nice to be able to tag or move a conversation to the right place and person.

Would you buy Help Scout again?

Yes

Small businesses that want a conversational type of customer support experience. Nothing wrong with support tickets, but it does make you feel like a number. Also, we needed to get up and running quickly so the "inbox" feel of the dashboard was already familiar with the team so they could adopt the new software quickly.
