What differentiates Intercom from other similar products?

It's simplicity is amazing - just install the code snippet on your website, then you are up and running with your account and can communicate with customers and visitors in no time. The ability to segment customers and tag them with relevant fields was really helpful.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Being able to communicate anywhere at any time with their software - their iOS app works very well and allows me to carry on working when out of the office.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The pricing is a little steep when you get more involved. I also found it a little annoying when people would communicate from a different tab, starting a new chat.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Think about how many customers you have and factor this into the pricing as if you have thousands, then it will likely cost a bit!

Caring
Client's Interest First

Feature Ratings Average rating of all product features, some of which may not be shown below

Voice or Text Input Chatbot interaction through audible (voice) or text (keyboard) input.

Scheduled Availability The ability to schedule when the chatbot will be available, if its role is to augment a service desk on an after hours basis.

Integration With CRM The chatbot’s integration with the organization’s CRM would allow for customer information to be queried, once the customer’s identity has been verified.

Application Programming Interface For more customized needs, the chatbot may have an API which would allow an in-house developer to access features of the chatbox.

Personalized Service In conjunction with CRM integration, or through the use of browser cookies, the chatbot can be configured to deliver a more personalized service to the client.

Leads Generation The chatbot can take its interaction as input as a possible new sales lead, for follow-up by an organization’s business development office.

Knowledgebase Allows users to create knowledgebase articles, metadata tags, creation data and author's name

Learning and Adaptability The chatbot should have the ability to learn the characteristics of the human with whom it is interacting. This can include speech nuances.

Workflow Processing By leveraging the chatbot’s AI capabilities, the intelligent routing of data across an organization, based on pre-defined parameters of a workflow.

Multi-channel Supports live chat, mobile app, powerbot and messenger
