Overall Satisfaction with Intercom

We use it to talk to customers in real time to answer technical and sales questions for them. We can interface with our website and give them direct links to products, order information, quotes, etc. They ca do this without waiting on the phone, and it can be much quicker than back and forth emails.
  • Ease of use
  • Quick response times
  • Macro options
  • Appearance settings like font size, colors
  • greater customer interaction
  • faster quoting and ordering
  • ease of use and speed for customers
It's generally easy to use. Some of the advanced features are a bit hidden. Someone can be trained to use it in probably a half hour or so. Using it daily for months myself and still discovering a thing or two. Maybe a full on guide would be good to have, unless I just havent seen it yet.
It's used as a direct connection between the customer and our website. We can link them to items, orders, quotes, etc. in an instant. They don't need to log into email or anything else. The whole order plus tech support/questions can be done on one page. It links up with our own internal ordering system as well and matches products up.
Firs time user. Have not used other programs that are similar.

Do you think Intercom delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Intercom's feature set?

Yes

Did Intercom live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Intercom go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Intercom again?

Yes

I think its well suited to any business that has a large inventory. Can be difficult searching if you don't know exactly what you want. This enables you to talk to a pro in real time and get that extra help. Probably not well suited for a business that just uses it for general inquiries. That can be done over emails or a phone call.
