What differentiates Intercom from other similar products?

Esse to use and complete solution are probably the two characteristics that I see as being diferential in Intercom. The product provides good UX and ways to meet every product messaging/communication need with our users. We intend to actually use intercom as the central guidelines for our whole push and messaging central due this. I see there a good way to prosper on this attention management. It's integration to CRM (Salesforce in our case) is great but also segment plays a major role for us to proper operate our business and messaging strategy

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The series feature is beyond nice, it is amazing. It allows us to leverage a lot of our messaging strategy.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The csv import method is not very user friendly

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Go for it. Align your segment or event tracker product with it, connect your CRM and go for it.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing

Being able to get up and running very quickly.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Pricing is a bit complicated and over the top for some of the features and makes it hard for smaller businesses to justify purchasing.

Definitely look at using the full capabilities of the platform - don't just use the chat feature and leave it, as you can do so much more with the customisations and integrations that can help automate your work.
