Fantastical setting for managing visitors on site

Likeliness to Recommend

8 /10

What differentiates Intercom from other similar products?

The main feature of Intercom software that sets it apart from other competing products is that it completely automates the process while leaving us in direct contact with our customers, allowing us to respond to their interactions more quickly. We considered it to be a fantastical setting where we could handle our guests differently and create more worthwhile connections.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I appreciate the functionality that allows me to arrange chats using chatbot prompts. When I first created and operated chatbots, Intercom simply surpassed my expectations. With this software, the process was carried out expertly and without a hitch. Additionally, the interface is more than adequate to be used across a variety of aspects of our firm. It subtly assists our visitors in getting to their desired locations.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The software's sporadic reporting modules make it difficult for me to create statistically sound reports, which means that whenever reports are required for presentation to upper layers, they must be created separately from the software. The software's only reporting feature frequently irritates me. Given everything mentioned above, it is clear that this is not a faulty software program.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Any business can benefit greatly from using intercom software. The productivity of your employees and overall leads will be maximized impressively and rapidly if you have enough resources, a qualified team, and Intercom in your organization. Even though intercom software is advanced, the best is still the best since it is useful and case-specific.

I love Intercom!

What differentiates Intercom from other similar products?

Adaptability and intuitiveness are just crucial differentiators. The reliability compared to other chatbots is just crazy, and the visibility it provides when it comes to landing page traffic is excellent as well!

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I have been using Intercom for the past four years at different jobs, very different industries, and ways of working. It has met expectations in all jobs, so that talks a lot about its adaptability. It's so intuitive, both for the agents and customers interacting with it; it's super easy to link information from the existing KB and even include videos and gifs to make interactions more human. The integration that the API allows is just perfect and adapts easily to all sites.

What do you dislike most about this product?

There is nothing I dislike about Intercom.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Do yourself a favor and improve your customers' interactions by getting this excellent tool!!

Intercom is one right way to engage customers.

9 /10

What differentiates Intercom from other similar products?

Intercom provides a feature-set that is unmatched by any helpdesk platform. Features like no-code mobile carousels, two-way sms customer engagement, product customer tour functionality and so on, are unique to the Intercom platform.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Mobile carousels is one feature on Intercom which our team has taken full advantage of to high success. Through Carousels, we are successfully connecting with customers and users of our product apps. at specific junctures in the course of using our apps. Intercom's mobile carousels has helped to highlight new features to app. users , acted as a guide to sales prospect to signup to our service and so on. One of the best part of this feature for us as a team , is that we have been able to customize it to target specific types of customers to great success.

What do you dislike most about this product?

With platforms like Intercom, which is extremely feature-rich , there is always the propensity for it to be overwhelming for inexperienced users. On a second note, I believe that Intercom's support can be a lot more responsive to queries and enquiries. Slow paced responses to customers is not very worthy of a team providing a customer success software.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Intercom is great for engaging customers and for efficiently managing general customer interaction, in a way that is simply unmatched by any platform that I know about at this time.
