"Top AI Chatbot Tool"
What do you like best about Intercom?

The customer support provided by Chatgp4 is exceptional. The use of workflows and integration with other tools is seamless and efficient. The unified inbox allows for easy communication through Chat, Email, SMS, and phone. Overall, the system works perfectly out of the box.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

All the upsells can be overwhelming at first, but once you get past the learning curve it becomes easier to navigate.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were able to eliminate live chat and automate responses that are very commonrs and business for our custometype. As a result, we have decreased the number of team members, which will reduce operating costs. Now, we are consistently providing responses from our knowledge base, making the process easier

"Great solution"
What do you like best about Intercom?

The set up and time required to get started was very manageable.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Keeping up with the chats every day, while not difficult, requires me to be proactive. I wish it was easier to get notifications that a chat/question has started.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

It provides answers to the basic questions our prospective students are asking and provides a timeframe to expect a response when we are not available. Our previous chat solution didn't have those options.

"New tool when changing jobs"
What do you like best about Intercom?

I think they way all our inboxes are organized it makes it very easy to know where to look for cases. Easy to use as well and very intuitive. I used to use ZenDesk on my previous company and I prefer Intercom now as I think it is more user friendly. Great for customer support agents to work together in different cases.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Maybe that sometimes the platform bugs and the beeping when receiving a new case is happening but not case is entering the inbox.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Intercom is helping us establish a good work dynamic and organization. It benefits me because it allows me to be a more organized person which was one of my weaknesses.

"Such a clever tool!"
What do you like best about Intercom?

Absolutely brilliant tool to be able to connect with customers. We are able to easily set up different banners, notifications and surveys/polls within the platform and have them go live instantly. Not only is it brilliant for our CS team but our Marketing team are able to get lots of value out of it for connecting with the customer to promote events, promotions or collect feedback.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

There isn't anything major but a minor gripe is the search functionality when refining audience, sometimes 'job title' doesn't seem to show all the results for example.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are able to access all of our customers with a few clicks of a button, able to get quick feedback, answers to questions or promote specific events/campaigns.

"Intercom is the bomb."
What do you like best about Intercom?

It's really good. Probably the best chat application out there. A lot of integrations and possibilities. I use it on a daily basis. My role is customer success manager and so now and then support.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

The price. It's a good business model, if you like to use more, you have to pay more. Witch makes sense, but that's what comes up to mind now.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps customers to find there own answers 24/7. We can have instant conversations via chat.

"Automation is amazing, help our startup grow smooth."
What do you like best about Intercom?

Automation! The best thing is that I can sleep, and the system is doing their job

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Maybe we cannot change the background to make our newsletters even more beautiful. Also, I cannot easily send it to my tag audience. Not easy to target group.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

All the emails and data are going directly in the system, I don't have to do it manually any more

In my role as product support associate I love intergrations with jira tickets, plus being able to add notes onto my customer conversation, also use tags that can then be integerated with productboard

Stats and data for chats. It doesn't take into account working hours Plus you cannot see on your individual csat responses on csat stats

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helping me attach support articles to customers that integrate aith our website Helping my conversations whith customers

"A great product and great company to work with"
What do you like best about Intercom?

Simple straightforward in-app help for our customers, it really feels like intercom is a human-first AI powered business that I trust to keep developing in the right direction.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

I don't believe the ticket offering is strong enough yet for me to push to our other products. I am hopeful this will change soon.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Right now it is really helping us deliver our self-service content is a way that customers are actually paying attention to. These days customers are less and less inclined to read product manuals, the chat and chatbot are both redelivering this help in-app, in-context and immediately so that customers get the quick answers to quick questions.

"Intercom's Fin has been a game changer!"
What do you like best about Intercom?

It's great to see the immediate impact on the work you do in Intercom. You can see the AI Bot helping customers instantly and workflows helping to make sure the Support Team have all the information which ultimately impacts the Customer's experience. It's very easy to make clear and easy to follow guides for our Customers. I love how Intercom makes it easy for us to help our Customers and easy for them to seek our Support. Being able to customise Intercom to suit your internal processes to suit your own needs is refreshing. Having integration to our Status Page is also a benefit to add layers of transparency with our Customers.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

I think it'd be great for Reporting to be more advanced especially with the AI Bot sats. I alos think sometimes areas are hard to improve from our stand point like searches which return no results, this isn't something we can action. So, having more support on how we can action these and action low unresolved Bot conversations.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

With so much incoming it can be hard to manage what queries are for which Team and Intercom is an easy place to manage this within. Having different Teams set up means the Customer gets consistency and we are achieving the correct expectations. We want our Customers to be able to reach us in the easiest way possible for them and the online chat is exactly that.

"Intercom clears up a lot of the clutter and confusion for shared inboxes."
What do you like best about Intercom?

The ability to snooze and leave internal notes are gold. It's a big step up from assigning coloured tags to people, and the risk of deleting emails as well.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Limited number of users and linking issues to Jira need the additional add on (which we can't get because of IT restrictions).

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

Intercom makes sure nothing is missed and we can keep an eye on customers waiting for a reply.

"Muy cómoda y multidisciplinaria."
What do you like best about Intercom?

Todas las posibilidades que ofrece y que se pueda hacer todo lo vinculado a personas usuarias, leads y atención al cliente desde una misma pantalla.

What do you dislike about Intercom?

Quizás que entre tanta información que almacena a veces puede ser difícil encontrar algunas cosas.

What problems is Intercom solving and how is that benefiting you?

A centralizar todas las comuinaciones de engagement con las personas usuarias de la aplicación. Gracias a Intercom pudimos atacar, con distintos formatos de piezas de comunicación, a diferentes segmentos como churn, trial ended, y muchos más.
